Immigration Will Makes It Impossible To Drill Our Way Out Of The Oil Crisis

Re: Peter Brimelow’s Blog: Krugman Unfair To Know-Nothings

New York Times columnist and economist Paul Krugman has a point. [Know-Nothing Politics, New York Times, August 7, 2008: http://www.truthout.org/article/know-nothing-politics ] Republican energy policy is simplistic.

But Krugman misses the core issue. America cannot drill its out of a continuing criminal invasion of millions of illegal aliens.

Aliens come to the U.S. to be consumers, not conservationists. Just as Joe Guzzardi pointed about immigrant water consumption: http://www.vdare.com/guzzardi/080808_vfl.htm , the same is true of oil.

Using what may be a conservative estimate of two million new immigrants the U.S. accepts annually—legal, illegal and non-immigrant visa holder who never go home—oil usage will continuously increase.

Factor in that immigrant birth rate is higher than the American-born population and you have a real crisis.

America cannot ever “drill its way outâ€
