TBF most of them are good people, and want a better life. I have no quarrels against that but I think maybe 5 figures a year is lots, not this 800k+. That being said, most of them here are relatively upper middle class since its not cheap to emigrate from India.

I know what you're thinking 😁 See for the last couple centuries industrialized nations all over the world have been importing people like potatoes. And there is a very good reason for that. See over the last couple hundred years you have made many advances in technology medicine and law enforcement. Your people however aren't having fifteen children anymore and your population is therefore receding. You then have to import people i.e. drain all the brains from around the world. Immigrants are also more eager to come if things back home aren't good especially when the world is bombing your pants off. Also things like rampant corruption that make it extremely difficult to live an honest life. They're also having children upon children because technology doesn't yet exist and so god told them to. 🦫 We are finite beings in an infinite universe. Also, you cannot stop immigration.
Extended explanation of immigration necessity based on demographic decline and economic labor needs, comparing industrialized nations' strategies.

That lady is 10000% correct about the auto insurance. Same bullshit is happening in California. Newsom and our dumb ass government lets illegals register cars without a drivers license and without insurance and it’s causing my insurance to double year after fucking year on a 1996 Toyota with 200k miles. Same shit for CDL drivers. You have illegals with no license operating a train on wheels at 80mph on the freeway.
Comment focuses on economic impacts of immigration policy, specifically rising insurance costs attributed to undocumented immigrants.
