John Galt,
I don't worry about people coming here, as much as I worry about the jobs going there!
Actually immigrants would rather stay where they're at and have an Amercian company build a facility in their hometown.
China is now garnering most of the world's manufacturing jobs. Ironically, they probably have the 'most free' marketplace of all. Free to hire Children and Free to pay their workers pennies, Free to mistreat workers with terrible working conditions. Free to pollute their countries Air, Land and Water.
Then there is India where Amercian companies are building large service centers. If a job can be done over the Telephone like - Legal Services, Engineering and Computer Sciences - the job is at risk. They Pay about 1/10th of what US companies are paying. One of companies in town that publishes legal documents has just farmed out a bunch of work to Indian Lawyers. They are teaching them Amercian Law.
These are countries that have a 'Free Marketplace' They are pretty much free to do as they please. I'm not interested in relocating to one of these places though!
No, John I don't think you have to worry about immigrants coming here. They will be paying the Social Security that you are soon to receive. And I'll bet you are only few generations away from immigrants from Europe.
