yeah but the parent commenter was specifically talking about social security, illegal immigrants aren't contributing to social security

That if the economy craters, because suddenly population growth isn't buttressed by immigration (legal or illegal), then both social security and welfare rapidly become unfundable, and the poor suffer more than billionaires.

Ergo, poor people should be in favor of any sort of immigration.
