Illegals and the Aborted.
The Minneapolis business class receives labor at low cost and and can drive down wages, and the Mexican economy receives billions of dollars infused into their economy. Everyone wins, right?
Here’s an theory about illegal immigration I haven’t heard yet. Now, follow me on this one: according to sources as ideologically opposed as the National Right to Life Committee [1] and Planned Parenthood’s affiliate Guttmacher Institute [2], there have been approximately 42 million to over 48 million – that’s 42,000,000 to over 48,000,000 – abortions in the United States since Roe v. Wade federalized an abortion “right” in 1973. The oldest of those children aborted would now be 34, producing families and contributing to the economy and American society. These now-deceased children who would have been 18-34 would have numbered in at least the 10’s of millions. They would be working in jobs that are currently held by the estimated 12 million illegal aliens in the United States. I assert that because of mass abortion, it was necessary to allow the migration of millions of illegals into the United States. Were the people that have violated our laws en masse – and the poor souls who died in their attempt to cross the border – to replace these now-deceased American children?

…What…?
In this post, you are not commenting on abortion or illegal immigration, sir, but instead providing a farcical example of how innocent and unrelated statistics can be linked through tenuous coincidences in order to provide nu-fact support for a point that would otherwise be unfounded.
