Meanwhile Chinese citizens "subsidize" the rest of our economy...

The only difference is we can't move all our food factories abroad, so the labor travels here.

We could build a high-speed Maglev rail line over the Bering Straights to Asia and another one to South America...

But yah, open the borders. That's the only immediate solution.

The 90's had our greatest economic growth, and the borders were basically wide open then.
