    As if they could overpopulate those countries.

    https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters

    Past 4 years puts it at 8,280,550. Or nearly 2.5% of the US Population. And this number is “interactions” meaning there’s more coming across the border than that which goes undetected. Depending on where they specifically it’s entirely possible for them to overpopulate areas and place undue burdens on infrastructures and social safety nets.

    If waves of them hear that NYC is a great place to be and all head there, well now NYC has a burden of dealing with that cannot do things like pay into taxes legally (no SSN to report wages to). Depending on where you live, you very well could be observing “overpopulation”. Or at least it may feel like that (more demand for housing, resources, etc.)

    If they are allowed to stay, then they must adapt to each country’s lifestyle.

    I agree with this. While America and other countries are all “melting pots” of sorts. There’s a reason you migrated… If you’re not willing to adapt to where you’re going, then why did you leave where you came from?
