I know - the irony! Perhaps the only reason that the US has so many millennials is that so many people come to the US undocumented, skirting the dumpster-fire immigration and visa system. Without those millennials, the US would be in the same pickle.
- danbolt 6y agoCertainly immigration and not to do with being the children of baby boomers!
- viraptor 6y agoUS has estimated 11M of unauthorised people. Let's say 25-34yo are millennials - that's 3M of them. Same age bracket has 45M US residents. I'm not sure the 3M are making that much of a difference. (Although it's higher than I expected)
- CountSessine 6y agoThat’s very interesting - thanks for looking up the numbers. I’ve been curious about this for some time. I guess we need to look elsewhere for our explanation.
