Hard to say and way to early to tell. There are too many factors.
1. Status - are they illegal? If so then it will be an extreme impact on our economy and social welfare system
2. Age - I think the fact that there will be so many more retirees is more alarming. All the boomers will be retired by then, 20% of the population. Who is gonna foot the social security, medicare bill?
3. Distribution - where are all these minorities located? Where is the invasion taking place? In the southwest and south east? Which parts of America will be affected? Whre they are distributed will directly impact politics and economics.
4. Social unrest - could be some intense rivalry between groups going on especially if certain groups insist on non-assimilation. Plus competition for social resources too.
It also depends on how we as a country can cope. Do we start to see each other as fellow Americans and communicate in the same language or do we break up into disparate groups in competition with each other?
I predict the group that will suffer the most will be Asian-Americans. Despite having the highest income and education levels in the US, they are the most discriminated against. It's a long ways off though so who knows.
