Do the Stimulus Checks Stimulate Immigration? The Samoa Story
By David North on April 9, 2021
We have long known that whatever the state of the economy or the weather, the Open-Borders types argue that there is a need for more foreign workers. Flood or drought, boom or bust, we "need" more of them they say.
Ten million or more Americans out work because of the virus? They argue we need more foreign doctors and nurses. And more farm workers. That's the macro picture.
The same thing happens in the micro scene of American Samoa, the only U.S. territory that runs its own immigration policy. It is a bizarre story.
As p. 4 of the New York Times tells us obliquely every morning, there is no Covid-19 in the territory. (The paper reports on the incidence of that plague in all the states and in four U.S. territories; there are five of them and the one excluded is American Samoa, which has been immune so far to the virus.)
