Worth a watch. Good interviews with locals.
Some towns have gotten 50% bigger in less than 2 years as new people moved in. Schools and infrastructure were not prepared.
Why is this happening? And - as seen in the comments on this thread - why are you a racist if you ask about it?
To be clear: immigration is important, and necessary, but I had not heard or seen the impact that this huge surge of people have had on many small towns until I saw this.
If your reaction to someone asking this simple question is anger: that’s a problem. Feel free to treat me like an idiot and back up your opinion with data. Otherwise, I don’t understand why we should be obligated to treat this massive influx of people better than our own citizens. No other country does it.
I dont have info on the quality of these jobs but I doubt that they are paying slave wages. One of the big employers in springfield is a Honda vehicle assembly plant for example.
