    Fake asylum seekers from our open “ biden border” is causing inflation. Who is paying for these Fake asylum seeker services? The American people. Cities and municipalities much raise state and local taxes or cut back on sevices meant for hardworking tax payers.. The inflation will only get worse and it will show up in the deficit hence higher bond yields.
    Lets not even talk about the crime some of them are bringing; thats also an economic drain.

    Politicians are slave to their masters and masters want two things.
    1) More immigrants to keep the wages low and consumption high (Democrats)
    2) Less company taxes and less worker rights (Republicans)

    Q.E.D.

    You obviously have no interest in facts:
    1. More workers = lower inflation;
    2. More crimes are committed by U.S. citizens, per capita, than immigrants.
    3. One of the strengths of U.S. vs other countries, have always been what immigrants add to the economy.

    Above not for your edification -- that ship has sailed -- but for those whom think.

    seriously. Most nativists would be dead in the streets if they had to deal with what immigrants do to get here and survive. Frankly most nativists are failures in life despite having the privilege of having roots and support and not having to assimilate at the same time.

  6. Why don't their own countries want them then? They should be opening the floodgates to let them in.

    Yes, the U.S. used to be a powerhouse of innovation,
    natural resource assimilation,
    and labor attraction.

    But what was Number 1 on the list was included in the Declaration of Independence:
    "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness"
    To the average 18th century Englishman, what is that?
    Literacy. Full Stop.
    The ability to live like the gentry.
    So America must have public education.
    and encourage everyone to better themselves.
    The London gentry were aghast at this radical proposal.
    This is the secret sauce that America is built on.
    Instilled in a moral youth is
    "If you can dream it, you can do it"

    Then came the came the synergies of very young adults:
    JD Rockefeller
    Cornelius Vanderbilt
    Andrew Carnegie
    Henry Ford
    Thomas Edison
    etc

    ***
    It is a Marxist myth that America was built on cheap labor.
    The built-in canard is that the cheap labor needs to be paid back now (reparations)
    But, it never happened in America.
    ***
    I am totally against illegal immigration,
    but because of the incentives ("free stuff"),
    and not for any other reason (building moral ambitions)

    The illegal migrants are coming from countries that dont share our values or value human life. That is inflationary in many ways.

  9. That's right, correct.
    Those are NOT moral countries, and those emigrants are NOT moral people.
    Moral as defined by the
    Ten Commandments

    Our current immigration policy is best described as:
    "square peg in a round hole"

    can't you argue that raising taxes lowers inflation by reducing demand? And if those taxes are redistributed to others then demand equals out.
