Gross. The economy and immigration are generally unrelated issues

    Well that's just not true, immigration is great for the economy in terms of GDP because more workers make numbers go up and bad for "the economy" in terms of deflating local wages.

    It's a complicated balance but they're certainly not unrelated.

    I think the housing crisis or cost of living crisis is mostly unrelated to bad immigration regulation, but that's still a small factor.

    Immigration when done correctly is great, of course you have to consider ensuring local people are employed first and you are filling in needed gaps or creating more business and employment in general

    The population increase over the last 26 years has almost exclusively been from people having kids. Immigration accounts for less than 5% over that period. So yeah the housing crisis has literally nothing to do with immigrants.
