Higher immigration will not fix this problem as most of the immigrants
are uneducated and cannot speak the majority language, English.
What does that have to do with being able to pay into the social security
system?
My grandparents were uneducated and my grandmother never did learn English
even after seventy years in the country. But she ran a cheese factory and
became a successful businessperson.
It used to be that we allowed immigration to the USA for college
graduates and English competency only. We still allow about 1.3 million
people per year to immigrant legally to the USA, mostly family of
existing citizens.
When was this? It certainly wasn't when my grandparents came here.
