The Census Bureau estimates that a record 51 million legal and illegal immigrants are expected to reside in the United States by 2023. By that time, immigrants will account for more than one in seven members of the nation’s population.
Driven mostly by legal immigration, the Bureau predicts the immigrant population will increase to one in five by 2060, totaling 78 million people. The U.S. population is expected to reach 417 million by then, an increase of 108 million from 2010.

I won't be around to see it but then again I think it's unicorn dreaming to expect the US to make it to 2060 intact. These immigrants do not have the same values or attitudes towards individual rights that Americans traditionally have had and they certainly are not going keep up the welfare state. Either in EBT payments or crushing taxes for welfare pension payments for a bunch of retired old White people. Bringing in more people for more taxes may look good on paper but they will change what you have in place as each new one also votes.
ReplyDeleteThe numbers will bring this to a head long before 2060.
I imagine so, sad to say.
