Culture trumps economics

Mark Steyn argues that the effects of the immigration proposals will be much greater culturally than economically.
Any economic benefit from the amnesty bill by the year 2033 is peripheral, not to mention laughably speculative. But the cultural effect from admitting through amnesty and the consequent chain migration tens of millions of unskilled immigrants from a narrow demographic source is less speculative: It will be lasting, profound, and transformative. Culture trumps economics.
