As the vast majority of illegal migrants come from countries with a culture of having lots of children the growth is inevitable.

The growth of what? In terms of what these children aspire to and will be doing to contribute to their new home. Where do they live, how well do they do at school, what's the most common job they do, how much do they earn? Not the exceptional the entire community.





Families on or under $35k per annum don't contribute enough to cover the costs of their share of running a modern country. In fact, those on $40k a year probably only break even when you consider that total Government spending per person is over $20,000.

Adding more people to the bottom of the pile is stupid. Unless you're an employer or landlord, then it's a license to print money.

So pay for the Wall to save you money down the line. Or watch your country decline.
