Legal Immigration Declines under President Trump

Tuesday’s New York Times front page includes an article titled “Immigration By Legal Path Begins to Fall” showing how President Trump’s efforts to reduce the foreign influx into America has begun to turn the tide.

We know already that Trump’s Remain in Mexico deal has severely chilled the asylum fraud since fewer than one percent […]

Trump Travel Ban Angers New York Times and Nigeria

On Friday, President Trump added six nations to the US travel ban, and Nigerians are kicking up quite a squawk, at least according to the New York Times. Nigeria is Africa’s most populous country, with around 204 million people now but its proclivity toward extreme growth is notable even among Third World spots.

Drought-Prone, Overpopulated California Is Slow to Adopt Water Storage

Democrat-run California didn’t learn much from the recent five-year drought that left many reservoirs close to empty.

Below, the depleted Almaden Reservoir near San Jose, California, in February 2014.

This year’s rainy season has seen the skies open up and dump incredible quantities of the wet stuff, which is always welcome in the drought-prone […]

Drought-plagued Cape Town Considers Importing an Iceberg to Increase Water Supply

To serious water worriers, the extreme drought situation in Cape Town South Africa has been a forecast of bad things to come in the overpopulated future. Regions with more people than their rainfall can support are at risk for water shortages, particularly when even alleged environmentalists like California Gov. Jerry Brown think additional millions of […]

Storm Dangers Highlight Florida Growth

As the powerful Hurricane Irma moves toward Florida, climate change is already being named as the culprit for the storm’s projected level of damage. But we needn’t look beyond the state’s rapid population growth and corresponding construction to understand the escalating cost of big storms there.

Florida is one America’s top five states for […]

Joe Biden: Immigration Must Be ‘Constant, Unrelenting’ for Economy

We know that liberals don’t care about having a productive business climate, as indicated by how much they regulate the life out of it. How then do they think economic growth can be induced into happening?

Judging by Joe Biden’s recent remarks to the National Association of Manufacturers, he envisions a ponzi scheme of endless […]

Los Angeles County Population Reaches 10 Million Diverse Residents

A corner of southern Crowdifornia arrived at an undesirable milestone in 2013, when Los Angeles County became the most populous county in America with an even 10 million souls as of last July.

The LA Times tippy-toed around in its coverage, not being too boosterish though crowdiness is good for business. The paper probably didn’t […]

California in Severe Drought, but Senate Amnesty Would Admit Millions More Residents

At 38 million residents, California is overpopulated from a water supply standpoint. Any normal reduction of rainfall for several years is now a source of concern that rationing is likely to follow. The state has had two years of sub-normal rain which puts a strain on water supply for drinkers, farmers and fishermen. Plus, long […]

California & USA: Immigrants Keep Coming

Growth enthusiasts are relieved! Even a depression-lite economy of years duration won’t keep immigrants out, according to recent Census numbers. (Maybe the foreigners heard about the current administration’s generosity with free stuff for everybody.)

Whatever the reason, immigrants continue to pile in, even while citizens lower their baby production on account of tight family finances. […]

England Is #6 in Population Density

William Blake referred to “England’s green and pleasant land” in his poetic work Jerusalem, but a couple decades of crazed immigration has transformed the country into a very crowded place, with more pavement grey and less green — to the point where England has become the sixth densest nation on earth.

Even worse, quite a […]

Census: Hispanic Population Growth Misunderestimated

What a surprise: the Census projected hispanic growth at less than it turned out, as has often been the case of the Census dealing with immigration effects in general.

When the 2000 Census was released, the actual population (281,421,906) was around six million more than the Bureau had guessed for its domestic counter. (Which today […]
