Today’s immigrants for the most part don’t come for ideological reasons. They are not fleeing oppression nor aspiring to the American ideal. Their motives are purely economic.

In such a scenario the party that goes around handing out cash will win everytime.

That's what they said about the Italians and Greeks and, of course, it was true ~ millions of them also self-deported once they'd gotten some bucks together and purchased firearms useful back home.

Earlier Russian and Ukrainian Jews and Poles were similarly accused of being interested only in money, or import/export.

Keeps going that way until we get back to the English ~ yup, same old thing ~ really.

The only pure ideological immigrants we ever received were the Scots and the Sa'ami! Actually we got about 90% of each type, and then, of coure, there are the Irish, Welsh, Manx, Bretons and Galicians ~ about 90% of them as well ~ but they came for the money I am sure ~ right?

I wonder, did Krauthammer and the rest of the Good Old Panderers pushing for amnesty give their kids a pony every time they stomped their feet and said “I hate you”?
