hey, dailtfinance just cribbed your idea but they added that Canada did exactly what you are proposing 20 years ago when they had an oversupply of houses

the whole point is that ONLY immigrants who can ADD to the demand sidfe of the equation by coming in with “means” would be eligible for entry into the US.

Just wondering…where all these people going to work? So we have to create new jobs for all of these new immigrants or are they going to take the jobs that the currently unemployed have a chance of getting reemployed into? These people don’t need to move here - companies send US jobs overseas because of the uncompetitive US burdens placed on them (over regulation, taxation and litigation)

Free hit it on the head on the immigration word being poisonous. I don’t think other countries would get annoyed because they count on the US to jumpstart the world economy.

Excellent review. I think we aren’t doing it because no one has thought of it but if they DID think of it the reason we wouldn’t do it is becasue other countries would get annoyed.I think other countries would get annoyed at us taking their people.I think the word “immigration’ is political poison but we have to get over that. This is not about immigration.

saw the comments on the Friedman article suggesting to come here. This is way smarter of an idea than what he was proposing because it creates something out of nothing ,as opposed to having the government just try to rescue the industry

I saw that Forbes list of 12 points. They put this on as a way of getting more skilled people into the country. They totally missed that it could be a major source of demand for goods and services. What is wrong with our government that it isn’t doing this right away?

I googled on “economic recovery” and “immigration’ and no one is proposing this. The closest was oen of twelve points in a Forbes editorial to increase quotas for skills-based immigrants, which is fine but still misses the big picture. New home sales were at their lowest point in 50 years last month…let’s bring in some people to buy them, and then furnish them
