In my January 6 post about the possibility of a second Trump regime instituting a ban on emigration - leaving the country - I said that it was mostly because Trump wouldn't want to be humiliated by the outward flow of Americans to other countries after he's supposedly restored American greatness. I didn't talk much about the other main reason for a dictator imprisoning his people in his country - preserving human capital.
Unlike with my previous post on this topic, I will be brief here. Human capital - the energy, talent, and industriousness of the people - is essential to any nation's ability to function. The United States has laws been good in attracting human capital, from Italian and Polish immigrants seeking work in factories to Jewish immigrants fleeing state-sanctioned anti-Semitism to Indian immigrants looking to succeed in the technology industry. Because he's a bigot, Trump has no desire to bring in more people to the U.S. unless they're from northern or western Europe, but who in Norway or Denmark would want to come here? - so who's going to do provide the human capital? Simple - people who are already here . . . with white people in the high-paid jobs and the coming black and brown majority doing the dirty work, like harvesting crops and cleaning hotels. This jibes nicely with Project 2025's plan to restrict abortion and force women out of the workplace . . . so white women can procreate to reverse the decline of the Caucasian population while black and brown women procreate to man the fast-food restaurants. This isn't Margaret Atwood's Gilead - this is Adolf Hitler's plan to enslave inferior races and Heinrich Himmler's plan to create a "master race."
To be honest, illegal emigration was not a Nazi innovation but a Soviet one. Vladimir Lenin and, later, Joseph Stalin tightened borders to prevent Soviet citizens from leaving the country to avoid expatriates joining the armies of the U.S.S.R.'s enemies and because leaving the Soviet Union was seen as a betrayal of the workers' revolution.
Trump simply wants to keep the workers he has because he's not letting anyone in. So the U.S. will be like Willy Wonka's chocolate factory - no one comes in, no one goes out.
Or, to put it another way, Trump 47 would make this country a 3.8-million-square mile East Berlin.
