The Benefits of a High Immigrant Population

The main argument about building a high immigrant population is evident in almost every industry. Their overall contribution to the economy as a whole has been shown to be positive and an improvement in the quality of the workforce is noteworthy. Let's first note the unquestionable things in economics. Even among those claiming that immigrants are not profitable, it is necessary to accept the fact that the GDP of the United States (G.D.P.) generally increases.

There is evidence that immigrants will benefit from demographic and economic benefits from the last belt. Immigrants from a completely different immigrant population - Mexico, Central America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East than the Europeans who started Chinese and Western tribes over 150 years ago will hollow out some major cities in the region In order to slow down. A small factory city in the last few decades Immigrants are the main cause of population growth and new business growth in today's Midwest part - the only source in some areas. According to the Chicago World Problem Committee from 2000 to 2015, the non-native birth population in the Midwest increased by 34% (over 1 million) and accounted for 37% of the population increase in the Midwest. From the eastern region Racine and Janesville, West Wisconsin, Akron, Ohio, Erie, Ohio, the increase in immigrant population compensated for losses or exceeded a slight increase in the birth rate.

Immigration levels are at historically high levels, and immigrants are now the main driving force for population growth in the United States. Let's consider the history of some demographics. From 1900 to 2000, the population of the United States has nearly quadrupled from 76 million to 281 million. The greatest decade of population growth is also recent. It is an increase of 32.7 million people between 1990 and 2000. 2 This population increase is due to the mixture of natural growth and migration as shown in Figure 1.

The number of immigrants and the rate of increase in the immigrant population has been higher than any other time in the past 100 years, but the percentage of immigrants has increased in the first few decades of the 20th century. Table 1 shows that in 1910 the immigrant population reached 14.7% of the total population of the United States. Due to the change of World War I and the Immigration Law in the early 1920s, the level of immigrants began to fall and the proportion of foreign born population started to decline. The census of 1930 is the last time when the percentage of immigrants is as high as today.

From 1880 to the mid-1920s, there were an average of 600,000 immigrants annually in the United States, a wave of immigration, "a big wave" occurred. Due to high birth rate and high immigration level, the population of the United States has grown rapidly over the years. In the 40 years from 1925 to 1965, the immigration policy of the United States was relatively strict, and an average of 200,000 people were allowed to enter the country every year. During this period, the US population also increased from 115 million to 194 million, mainly due to the high natural growth rate. For example, in the 1950s American women borne an average of 3.5 children per capita. This is much higher than the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) 2.1 required to maintain a country with modern medical and sanitation.
