It has weakened any society that its happened to. Countries are made of people as much as geography. Change the people and you no longer have the country.

IMO, mass illegal immigration has weakened American society but not because they are illegal immigrants. They have weakened our country due to the Democrats that fight so hard to give these illegals everything paid for by our tax dollars. There are Americans doing with less than these illegals are getting and that is truly sad.
The Democrats are doing it simply for votes so they can be in power. Again IMO, it's the Democrats that are destroying the country. California, NY, Chicago, Seattle, just to name a few, are all Democrat run cities/states and look what shape they are in.

@SunshineGirl No she doesn't. That's a complete miss judgement on your part.

Our major cities that were heavily caucasian are now heavily populated by dark skinned immigrants and IF truth be shown, have crumpled in both production, adding to our GDP, and have become havens for leeches, those that live off the efforts of others.

I'm not sure how else you can interpret that sentence . . allowing for her apparent misunderstanding of what GDP is.

OK. While I commend your approach generally. You are missing one factor.. The reason that more immigrants started coming from South America and Africa is simply because the number of migrants wishing to come from Europe dropped as prosperity returned to Europe. The then administration realised the benefits and need for immigration levels to be kept up. So they sourced them elsewhere..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman And to that point on economics, @LesleyLee needs to take a second look at hers:
Our major cities that were heavily caucasian are now heavily populated by dark skinned immigrants and IF truth be shown, have crumpled in both production, adding to our GDP, and have become havens for leeches

Reality is that the Big, Beautiful, Blue states and cities lead the U.S. in all forms of production, GDP. California -- the most vilified by the MAGA crowd -- actually has the 4th largest GDP in the world, up from 6th only a couple of years ago, and has consistently contributed more to the Federal tax base than it has received in services, propping up red states that don't even collect enough taxes to take care of their own. Even more so after Trump's petulant targeted cutbacks on Federal funds, including disaster relief FEMA funds, to California and other Blue states.

@dancingtongue I agree with you, but being unfamiliar with LL I didnt want to go too hard in our first meeting.. In LLs experience there may have been a crumpling.. But America is in decline for a dozen other reasons and she may be correct, but not attributing the decline to the right cause..The classic "they're takin our jobs" is so much easier.. And way too many Americans have a history of taking the easy way out..😷
dancingtongue · 80-89, M
@whowasthatmaskedman Kind of you, and I am all for civility and giving the benefit of the doubt.

But then it is my state, my region, my city that she is hurling bumper sticker bullet points at which the facts do not support, imho.

If anything, it's the fear of immigrants that has doomed America's democracy.

Mass immigration from northern Europe completely changed the ethnic composition of America also. Why is this wave of migration "good" and the subsequent wave "bad"?
nudistsueaz · 61-69, F
Weakened it.
It's totally destroyed this country btw nice book you wrote
It has definitely weakened America and badly. Some cultures just don’t have the desire to assimilate. They want to live like their 3rd world countries and we do NOT want that! Nor do we want Sharia … Keep that mess over there.

Mass immigration now has hurt our society. During prvious years the immigrants wanted to assimilate unlike the current muslim influx

@MethDozer Some of today's arguments are so similar to earlier arguments, too. At one point, we couldn't let Catholics into America because then America would become a puppet of Vatican City. Now it's that we can't let Muslims into America because then we'll be ruled by sharia law.
MethDozer · M
@BohoBabe Yup. Before catholics it was literally every other Protestant vein that wasnt Clavinist.
Obviously it made US society possible.
And the humans, the true folks, back in Europe, needed to cull the hated population out of their real countries, so whites could die in the New World for their benefits! And, they're not capable of murder, so Americans will do that for them!
