It is the same thing as annexing everything down to the Panama Canal minus the natural resources. This is moving the Rio Grande down to the Panama Canal without taking the natural resources. but moving all the people up here into the United States so that they can. yes. go to work here. yes. contribute to our economy. but also access the welfare benefits. which will cost significantly more to fund them than the amount of the economy that they generate. Now. someone out there is thinking that is not true. because I have heard them say in the public arena for months and months and perhaps for the last couple of years that all immigrants that come into the country. legal and illegal. grow our economy. and so therefore we cant get along without them because they are the reason our economy is growing. I will submit there is a difference between highly educated. technically skilled immigrants who come in here on an HlB program. who are going to step in here and make $75.000 a year. Mr. Speaker. and someone who comes in here who is illiterate in their own language and doesnt have a high school education.
Identified stereotypes
Generalization that all immigrants, legal and illegal, grow the economy, followed by a counter-argument distinguishing between highly educated immigrants and those with low education levels.
