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.
Different problem. Only specific elites want a nuclear exchange. Boomers stupidly undermined civilization and trusted intuitions that were designed to enslave them. There's a ton of millennials that see enslavement to authority as a categorical imperative. The numbers of millennials whom are looking to smash your local neighborhood is a much more serious problem than the number of Boomers that are super sure their pensions are going to come through.
