Our population should be showing ZERO POPULATION growth. The only reason for the totally uncalled for population growth when we need to be at zero population growth or declining growth is .... GAWD AWFUL IMMIGRATION.

STOP IT! STOP IT ALL!! We do not want and do not need 2.3 million more people in this country every year. We want to grow our economy through production, not population. GET SMART, STOP BEING STUPID. Increase production, not population. Protect our wealth, do not water it down, protect our government, protect our people, protect our environment, STOP GROWING POPULATION THROUGH IMMIGRATION.

More jobs will be automated...the workforce will shift.

We do NOT want 3rd world, uneducated, disease infected breeders coming here!

CHAIN DEPORTATION!
