A new report found that immigrants have saved U.S. taxpayers more than $14 trillion
A new analysis of U.S. taxpayer data shows that immigrants to the U.S. saved the government $14.5 trillion over 30 years and prevented a financial crisis.
The Cato Institute analysis found that without immigrants, both naturalized citizens and non-citizens, public debt in the U.S. would be at least 205% of GDP. This figure alone demonstrates how reliant the U.S. is on the contributions of immigrants.
It also found that immigrants generate more in taxes than they receive in benefits.
Why is this good news? While a person’s inherent worth and value isn’t determined by any dollar amount or economic figure that they contribute to a society, this research does refute a common, already debunked claim that immigrants are a drain on society and take resources away from people who need them. On the contrary, they've been instrumental in preventing larger financial crises.
This retired Indian factory worker built a library of two million books
Over the past 50 years, Anke Gowda, a retired sugar factory worker from Karnataka, India, has built a vast library of two million books that anyone can borrow for free.
His massive collection includes books on every subject imaginable, and even some rare editions of the Bible. He wanted to give others access to books that he didn’t have growing up in a village where he was “always curious” about them.
Book lovers and students travel to Pandavapura to visit his ever-expanding library, which is open every day of the week.
