what is going on with the huge influx of immigrants into our small towns? (youtu.be)

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.

Why, what is the impact? You mentioned schools and infrastructure, perhaps those should be funded better? Was that it?

We should increase funding into things like schools and infrastructure, especially when communities are growing. I believe those have high ROI for those communities and the country as a whole.
