Are there too many immigrants in America?

New Colossus

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
 
I don't think there are any immigrants in this part of Florida. I'd ask the locals but I don't understand what they are saying.
 
Enough is Enough !!

We cannot afford the free stuff for the poor now and we keep adding more and more poor people to our welfare rolls. This is simply killing our country and it needs to stop now. The Democrats keep importing more and more migrants to affect congressional districts in red states.

Yes there absolutely is 1 million immigrants a year (most from third world countries) is harming America and taking away American culture. The only reason democrats want so much immigration is because the vast majority of the immigrants they let into this country VOTE DEMOCRAT. Enough of the multiculturalism that is destroying us. This is horrible.

Focus, my pressed and privileged white male basic bitch.

Focus.
 
The more things change the more they stay the same. The OP has been the refrain every 20 years or so. The ignorant, xenophobic, myopic and predictable refrain.

The real answer is that America is an amazing mosaic, unfinished, and it requires immigration that we may continue to create our future.
 
I guess meditation isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Namaste.
 
LOL Only the Native Americans are original to this country. (Tech they came from Asia at some point too.) All the rest of us are direct/descendant of immigrants. Silly rabbits.
 
US cities with the most illegal immigrants have substantially lower violent crime rates. Look it up.

Illegals are a net bonus to gov't finances, paying for services they never receive, taxes that are never refunded. Look it up.

Without mass immigration, USA economy would be stultified by an aging, obsolescing workforce. Thos illegals support your standard of living, podner.

Problem isn't illegals, but LEGALS on work visas allowing their employers to dump Americans for cheaper legal foreigners.

Tromp's grandfather would be deported under current laws.
 
Yes there are far too many. Its unparalleled in US and possibly world history. We've become an alien nation.
 
Well, the short bus has just pulled up.
Yes, time for the short-arm inspection. Light'em if you've got'em, boys!

Meanwhile, most European nations now have a much larger immigrant percentage than does USA. Like USA, the immigrants are all that keep aging domestic populations from withering away.

Immigrant-haters live in a fact-free zone. Imagine that.
 
Let's start by getting rid of Puerto Rico.
We should have given Florida to Castro decades ago. Think how much better off USA would have been. Yeah, all those retiring New Yorkers as Cuban citizens... early revolution.

Now, PR, that's another story. I remember a Transactional Analysis routine:
I'm OK, you're OK.
I'm OK, you're not OK.
I'm OK, you're Puerto Rican.​
You had to have been there.
 
People want to come to America because its more oppressive in their country then it is here. All they want to do is live their lives and enjoy it to its fullest. The only flaw to that is some of them don't want to integrate into American culture. They want Americans to integrate into their culture which is something allot of Americans take offense by.
 
First off, the most obvious and ignored point is that there are two types of immigrants.

Those who follow the laws to enter and remain...

~and~

Those who could give a shit about our laws.

It's all about the bennies and perks.
