#1 Hmm, wrong on all counts, actually. Illegal immigrants are much more than a minor annoyance in themselves, and importantly are a central part of the collapsed civic culture that is far more a threat than birth rates: lawlessness, race-baiting, abandonment of sensible policies and adoption of stupid short-term rent-seeking in its place.

For a guy so burdened that his deep thoughts don't translate into sound bites, he tosses out the ignorant and arrogant "blow off steam about illegals on the border" with some panache.

And any demographic problem (he exaggerates it and fails to note how early it is in that game) CAN be partly addressed with smart (i.e., normal and traditional) immigration policy.

#2 Why the shift towards European reproductive rates? Because the government is regulating the crap out of being a parent. Remove the regulation and shift us back towards a more free society and the problem will solve itself.
