They do compete for it, however.
Would you expect 30 million undocumented people needing a place to live to put upward or downward pressure on prices?

I’m making a rather conservative estimate here.
But fair point…. What would the acceptable number be, in your mind?
The actual reliable estimates are about half of what you say. Between 11 to 15 million.
The rest of the Biden era has been a disaster of epic proportions
And the estimated number before Biden took office was 20-22 million
No reliable source puts it at 22 million. Provide something better as a source than some GOP cock holder of a mouth.
A. Your numbers reflect approximately the last 4 months of border activity, which was much improved over the rest of the Biden administration because they were in an election cycle
B. There 1000x the border activity compared to 20 years ago
And yes it’s a per capita argument.
If you stop 80% of 20 million people, and 35% of 1 million people, what’s the bigger net immigration?
Turning them away? No.
They're instructed to allow all crossers except a very select few into the interior to wait for their court hearings which won't be for another 5+ years.
Your argument would be a lot sharper if you would stop trying to distract from the obvious truth with extraneous facts that have nothing to do with reality.
Yes, Biden deported some folks.
So what?
Let's say Biden has 3 million crossings in a year, and he sent back the same percentage, 50%. That's 1,500,000.
That's 1,000,000 more than under Trump, with the same %.
So if you cite high prices as the culprit, then excess demand is the issue
Which seems to be the popular solution.
And it will work too
What would you do with them then?
If more people want a thing than our ability to produce it allows, then the problem is excess demand, which is a unique problem in America, where supply side economics rule.
And honestly, the type of people who want to live here determine whether or not it’s a good thing.
Look at the royal clusterfuck that is Houston tx if you want to see what no zoning laws will getcha
And single family houses build strong communities
