They , much like Canada need to import more people in order to keep the ponzi con going... thats why. Because of all the massive loans and debt put upon us by the bankers , at this point it would bankrupt a lot of home owners and destroy the economy if housing actually went down to its real value. The western governments in collusion with the banks have run an economy based on consumption which is a big reason they are doing all this mass immigration in order to keep consumption growing and labour cheap. They need more debt slaves and people to absorb all the fiat currency they create and need them fast. I dont think it was well thought out tho and it wont end well as it is also destroying nations, creating conflict and as it turns out most 3rd world migrants are not fitting into the system.
