Border.  What a mess.  Why not just keep 42?  Too simple for Demented Biden and his ####### buddies.

There's a worker shortage because of abortion.  All the people that could and would do these jobs were aborted 20, 30, 40, 50 years ago.

importing un-entitled immigrants as labor to replace lazy Americans sounds a lot like something you’ll need to pay reparations for advocating and supporting. Typical.

no- the kids whose parent didn’t want them were destined for poverty welfare and crime. 

Or some combination there of

Because Title 42 is based on a public health emergency (COVID). And that public health emergency declaration expires next week.

I thought you guys believed any COVID emergency should have ended at least a couple years ago, right?

No,   it's not.

 

A lot of people have and continue to have an unwanted pregnancy and man/woman up and take care of their child.  They work harder to make more money for their family.  People often move from low incomes to higher incomes.

 

What you say may be true for some but definitely not for all as you suggest.

 

What did people do before abortion on demand?  We must have had way more people in poverty, welfare, and crime than we do now.  Do you think that's the case?

 

And even so it still is a major part of the reason we don't have people to do all jobs and, as @Tiberius suggests we must import more immigrants to do them.

I’ve seen it laid out here well by some posters 
 

And Check out a book called Freakanomics…

 

Effectively;

 

The 60s welfare along with other social issues broke down families inner city, disproportionately black and also rural white families. Single parent households became the single biggest predictor of poverty and correlates across ALL demographics. poverty became the biggest predictor of crime across all demographics but particularly in young men average age 19…

 

crime began trending upward precipitously in the 60s and 70s as family values broke down single parent households grew and young men grew up to crime committing age. This happened ubiquitously across the us. Until a peak in 1991 and then rapid decrease at almost the same rate across the country. No one could associate any specific activity or activities with policy or world events. The improvement in some places could almost tie to isolated activities but didn’t explain why all geographies saw the same. 
 

a couple of economic professors in Chicago laid out a very compelling statistical argument that transposing the average age of criminals that originated from these SES circumstances 19, added to the year of Roe v wade passage 1972, combined with abortion rates, where they were happening and within which demographic single women disproportionately black btw, and what likely was going to be the future outcome of those conceived but instead aborted…. And you arrive at 1991, the national peak and inflection in us violent crime rate and beginning of it descent. 


The behavioral argument is if a mother is willing to make the decision to abort, that potential child had a bleak future and uncommitted parent. The most draconian of form of crime prevention, but plausible cause and effect nonetheless. 
 

moral position aside, it’s a compelling story with data.

Most of the migration is coming from Central America and Venezuela . Mexico is screwing the US by them not securing there southern border. After NAFTA gave Mexico so many jobs this is the thanks we get. The US needs immigrants who are legal and can work, vet them in there own countries . Not to mention all the Fentanyl coming from Mexico.

Thanks for this well presented answer.

 

Is there any data on what percentage of abortions fit this case?

 

Interesting but not sure how it changes what I said.  

 

I'm not trying to argue that abortion is good or bad.  Just that what we are seeing now in regards to companies not being able to find workers is a down stream effect of abortion.

 

For example, in 1990 there were 1,600,000 abortions in the US.   People aborted that year would now be 33 years old. Prime working age to take a lot of those unfilled jobs.  And then there's A multiplier effect from earlier abortions.  In 1973 there were 744,000. Those people would be 53 years old, still working, and in many cases had some children of their own that would now also be the work force.  

 

I got my data here: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/01/11/what-the-data-says-about-abortion-in-the-u-s-2/

 

And I agree by the way that households without a mother and father is a big contributor to a lot of our problems today.

Interesting. I read a similar study, probably 25 yrs ago, about abortions impact on the European workforce.
