| SmartMuffin 07/16/18 11:45:42 AM #468: | The labor is an investment, the spending is immediate The article shows that over a three year span, 90% of migrants are not working. How long do you project it will take to get that number above 50%? How many years of welfare do you have to pay them before they start working? At what point will they pay back all of that previous "investment" and start to become net tax contributors? How would that work in a country like the US where half the population is already a net tax recipient and not a contributor? The math on this isn't even close to working. You can call it an "investment" all you want, but the fact of the matter is, these people cost a lot more money than they generate. It's like "investing" in a boat under the logic that "well boats can be used for fishing and those generate positive returns so surely my luxury yacht is also a great investment." No, the vast majority of boats are money pits. If you want a boat that generates a positive return, you have to very carefully select a fishing boat. If you want immigrants to make your economy stronger, you have to very carefully select for young, single, high-skilled, likely-to-assimilate, English-speaking immigrants. --- SmartMuffin - Because anything less would be uncivilized - https://imgur.com/W66HUUy http://dudewheresmyfreedom.com/ ...
