    You know border control and passports were never a thing not long ago right and it was never an issue?

    What happens when 100 million people try to immigrate in less than ten years? Where would they live? Where would their children go to school?

    When large enough number of people immigrate they start building new communities or expand existing ones and with the increase of human resources and demand new houses, infrastructure, and cities get built providing more jobs, money, and services. It’s how America was built after all.

    If the development rate can’t keep up with the immigration rate then there would be less jobs and less services which makes prospect immigrants either find better opportunities at home or look for a different destination.

    The only case where this rule wouldn’t apply would be with refugees whether it’s war or natural disasters. And even then after a few years they seem to mostly integrate well with society and the economy.
