Person A: I support high levels of immigration.
Person B: Weren't you complaining about wages being too low? High levels of immigration directly impact wage growth in a negative way.
Person A: Yeah, but we don't have enough people to care for and replace baby boomers, so we need those immigrants.
Besides telling boomers to get rekt, what's your initial response?
Obviously, it's hypocritical to dissuade citizens from having children, and then turning around and saying we don't have enough people so we need more immigrants.
But I feel like I'm missing something here and can't quite put my finger on it.
If you focused on more staying healthy and working out than calling those that do Nazis, you wouldn't have as many people in a condition where they required a caregiver.
Besides the obvious 'can you vet them all to ensure there aren't predators that might abuse their positions or even harm those they are meant to care for' a lot of the things that can help the elderly or increase childbirth have been actively targeted by leftists. That and the evidence that low immigration actually increases social trust and cohesion even in a recession like economy.
