Are Western Nations Becoming Too Dependent on Immigration?

[Urvashi]

Many Western economies rely on immigration for labor and demographic stability. Some argue this strengthens societies, while others worry about cultural shifts and integration challenges. Should the West reduce immigration or embrace it as an economic necessity?

I think yes, but sadly west thinks immigrants are harming their societies. Recently, I read that in 2022, illegal immigrants paid $96 billion in taxes to the US government . That's really huge.

I believe Western nations are becoming more reliant on immigration to fill labor gaps and sustain economic growth. For example, many healthcare and tech industries in the U.S. and UK depend heavily on skilled immigrants to meet workforce demands.

Thry should embrace immigration. There's nothing wrong with them co existing peacefully with one another. They can benefit from such mutual existence

Western nations increasingly depend on immigration to offset aging populations and labor shortages. While migrants boost economies, overreliance can spark political backlash and exploitation concerns. A balanced strategy combining immigration with domestic workforce development and family support policies is essential.
