I’m a Democrat but my Party needs to wake up and realize that open borders are not fiscally sustainable

After Monday’s punt by the Supreme Court – declining for now to involve itself in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) fight – the debate over America’s immigration system will likely continue for many months to come. Yet the debate will almost certainly not be the one that we need.

To date, politicians and pundits have focused mostly on how foreigners have been helpful or harmful to our nation in the past. Instead, we should be looking at what role immigrants will likely play in the future.

In other words, will America still need people from abroad in our future economy? For reasons beyond politics, the answer will increasingly be that we will not.

Why? Blame the robots.

In late 2016 the Obama administration published an alarming study that showed upwards of 47 percent of American jobs might be eliminated due to the technological advances in robotics, automation and machine learning (RAML). The most vulnerable jobs included those filled by workers with lower pay, lower skills and less education.
