    According to the Georgia Guidestones, reduction of world populations is a good thing. Some people may be a little worried that the Social Security/Medicare Ponzi scheme will be underfunded, however....

    So according to the left We've lost less than one months job growth since Trump became president and less than the GDP of Haiti. It never dawns on them how ever that the overwhelming majority of those doming here for college are European and that European populations are crashing, and well there are fewer Europeans going anywhere.for anything because well there are fewer Europeans.

    From article: "That's hurting American universities"

    Who gives a crap if it's hurting the overpriced government funded left-wing indoctrination camps?

    It's the opposite. Income from foreign students subsidizes local students

    As opposed to democrats hating on uneducated Americans. Still see the dems can't discern the difference between legal and illegal aliens.

    Foreign students in America on student visas are NOT considered illegal aliens.

    You've posted this line many times and have been challenged to prove it, which of course you never do. Is this some sort of religious article of faith you have that we need more and more people forever and ever?

    Did you now?
    And what did you say about it?
    But let me explain:
    Most people believe it when they see it. But the problem with the right is they will only see it when they believe it.
    It makes it very difficult to get them to understand something they don't want to understand.

    Except you didn't say anything about it.
    You called it spin, then pasted a quote from it.
    If it was spin you should have pointed out what was spin.

    Foreign students pay more than locals by quite a margin, iirc.

    You dims need to learn how to use google. 2018 we had 79.62 million and 2019 is projected to be 80.9 million. Both of which are higher than 77.5 million. Try again.

    So he's Mr Magoo? He stumbles along and still winds up at the right place?

    Frankly, this whole "fewer foreigners" thing seems like good news to me.

    Same thing happened after 9-11. Foreign student didn't return or stayed away altogether. US Universities depend on that revenue. Without it tuition costs go up and really .. they are already high.

    If we could only stop the adults from coming here. If you go into any mall or Target in Dallas, it’s hard to find English speakers.

    This is definitely West Calcutta.
