Immigration is fine, as long as we stop importing cheap products from China and bring factory jobs back.


What you're saying isn't really far of from the truth (except economic hardship is real). My grandmother's wish for a man she would marry (after my grandfather passed away) was a man who can make a horse dance (we're Cuban), and she eventually did marry again. Today everybody wants everything to be perfect. No wonder, people are bombarded with perfect A, B and C at all times.


It's not. Most people want kids. Put a 500% tax on China imports and the economy will become sane again, allowing people of every "class" to breath.


I didn't claim women don't want kids, that's on you.

My claim is that we now have an economy and standard of living set up for dual incomes. This is relatively new and is not conducive to raising children.


What about we simply stop importing cheap things from China? Surely all Americans can't just "learn to code", so would it hurt with some factories building things in America? Is a bit of protectionism that bad?


If we have Americans making cheap things on American soil for minimum wage... that doesn't change the larger issue at all.
