Now there are way too many people with degrees competing for the few remaining jobs

That’s honestly not the future I see going forward. The future I see is one where colleges begin to close en mass, foreign students stop coming to the US for high quality education, and educated professionals leave the country for lower cost of living and better amenities abroad.

Education, as an institution, becomes a series of high end social clubs on the high end and a bunch of debt-trap MLMs on the low end. Increasingly little is actually taught at any of these schools, and the only real purpose of the campuses is to organize upper-middle class failkids into the various regionalized ideological cults.

All the immigrants have been rounded up and trafficked to El Salvador, so, who is left to act as the scapegoat for the ruling elite?

You’re never going to get “all the immigrants” because we’re a nation of immigrants.

The War on Immigration has better parallels with the War on Drugs. Lots of moving goalposts. Lots of propaganda as a stand in for policy. Lots of big splashy media pieces on how we’re “Losing” or “Winning” in dramatic fashion.

But the economic incentives don’t change. Consumer behaviors don’t really change. And mostly we create a giant Make Work system for thugs to harass people of color.
