Also, can you imagine the effect on the market of increasing the population by 3 percent and absolutely none of them contribute anything to the production of this country? They are all either coasting off of their investment portfolios or running companies in other countries. They would be parasites on the system.
Btw, big numbers are hard to visualize. So for context of how big a population increase 10 million people would be all at once… If they put all of those rich fucks into a hypothetical new 51st state, it would be the 11th biggest state by population. They could build a new equally big and densely populated New York City (8.2 million people) filled to the brim with non-contributing fat cats, and form the remaining population in 40th largest state. If they formed a country, they would be more populated than Greece.
Trump is talking about absorbing the population of entire countries. And not the kind of people that will work in fields and factories and pay taxes and contribute to their new home. No. These are the kind of people that will just consume and extort and lobby for more money and power for themselves. This is a nightmare scenario.
Well to be fair, rich people consume a lot, which is in itselfe good (from a pure capitalistic viewpoint). The only thing is that you still need enough people to actually produce stuff. Funnily enough trump is kicking a lot of cheap workers out of the country
