Legal immigration in the U.S. is heavily restricted with extremely low caps that aren’t even high enough to support our agriculture industry. I personally think this is on purpose so that industry can easily underpay and exploit undocumented workers. And yes, the economy would collapse without the all the undocumented workers; the “age” of our population is quite high. Here’s an article from a very conservative think tank (which I normally wouldn’t trust) that describes the situation: Why Legal Immigration Is Nearly Impossible.
Anyways, it’s futile trying to stop immigration. Desperate people will take desperate actions to improve the lives of themselves and their families. It will only get worse as the climate changes causes drought, famine, and otherwise unlivable conditions in parts of the world.
Everyone is in favor of legal immigration, that’s never been the issue for any Republican. It’s those who have entered here illegally, and/or are still here illegally, that has become an issue.
