People should know that the seasons in South America are the reverse of that in the Northern Hemisphere. Then again, maybe some do not.
Agreed that probably 80% of migrants crossing the US southern border ILLEGALLY are NOT true economic and climate migrants. They are just OPPORTUNISTIC and taking advantage of the US's History of being a WELCOMING country to immigrants.
..... The problem is that when you consider the wealth of the US and its amount of natural resources, roads, education capacity, food production, and other factors; and you tried to calculate OPTIMAL POPULATION - I believe that that number would be around 275 million legal citizens.
