True, and compounded by a shrinking % of working population vs. an increasing % of elderly retirees (like me: age 78 and soaking up Medicare benefits in order to remain above ground). Do those who oppose immigration by young adults of working age and their children, soon to also be tax paying workers, appreciate the long term financial benefit they bring us all?

Thank you. Most people I hear from favor steady immigration of much-needed workers. Most also oppose the "caravans" of unvetted and undocumented aliens. The US still has the enviable position of being able to embrace eager immigrants who "bring something to the party."
