Big Boat Business Has Been Brisk

I've been following this thread with some amusement. Has anyone here
thought about what would happen to this country without immigration, both
legal and illegal? This economy would collapse. As with most developed
countries, we depend on immigration for a growing economy. It's all about
birthrates. The natives aren't breeding fast enough to sustain our
population, and, as our population ages, without immigration, this Ponzi
scheme will collapse. We can talk all we want about curbing illegal
immigration, but it ain't going to happen. We'll just make them legal.
There has to be a way for developed countries to prosper without
constantly growing the population. Otherwise...where will it all end?
What happens when there are 20 billion people on the planet?
