This has a devastating effect Government debts I illustrated tax revenues come from wages, lower wages, lower tax revenues. With the possibility of a citizen of that country going onto welfare. The real unemployment rate is a huge burden on the rest. https://www.thebalance.com/what-is-t...t-rate-3306198 So much for the often quoted 4% figure.

Worse is coming. Unless we find millions of jobs over the next 10 to 20 years millions will be added to the unemployed.

Automated cars, vans, and lorries are being tested, with Government funding. That will mean no need for 3.5 million new jobs to replace the jobs truck drivers currently hold. Now add taxis and vans. This is in addition to jobs already being lost to automation. https://www.recode.net/2017/3/25/150...job-automation.

So stopping illegal migration is good for many reasons. It's a wonder all politicians aren't planning for the people's future and not their donor's futures.
Paul, calm down.

They've been telling us that computers will killing jobs for decades now. Instead, the direct opposite has been happening. We still need office workers and accountants, but now we also need IT people, computer salespeople, web designers, and people to design the computers themselves. Instead of replacing employees, it's made workers quicker and better.

It will be the same thing when robots start replacing us. Eventually fast food workers will be replaced by robots. However, we'll need someone to design the robots, sell the robots, install the robots, and the fix the robots. We'll have less fast food employees, but we'll have millions of people working in a brand new industry.
