A recent study by Pew Research finds that illegal immigration from Mexico has stopped and maybe even reversed so illegals are going back home!
Interesting, because way back in September of 2009, I predicted this (President Obama’s Plan to End Illegal Immigration). At that time, with tongue in cheek, I said that President Obama’s plan to end illegal immigration was to decimate the United States’ economy to the point that citizens of the Third World wouldn’t consider coming to the USA worth the effort.
Apparently it’s actually happening.
Of course, being intellectually honest, I will point out that the decline in illegal immigration started during the Bush Administration, with the downturn in the economy. But nothing has happened during the Obama Administration to make the US economy more attractive to those seeking to better themselves, legally or illegally.
It’s Econ 101 folks.
