“keeping the number of green cards issued per year at one million”
Sure. As long as they come from countries specified in the 1924 National Origins act.
For 55 years now the entire flow has been from any countries EXCEPT those.
People who have nothing to do with the original Americans and even consider us their enemies now live here in massive numbers and agitate to break up our nation constantly.
Did anyone ever envision 60 million Asians, South and Central Americans and even Africans coming to the United States 2 centuries after they were established, and had become the dominant world power?!
We never “needed” a single one of them. The benefit was entirely to the immigrant aliens themselves: they got to cash in on the biggest lottery in human history, with absolutely no justification on their side except...they had nothing to do with us, or worse, had a grudge against us (think “Mexico”).
And before someone says “you’re being too critical! Don’s doing what he’s got to!” all I can say is answer the question: did we “need” 60 million utter aliens?
No. We didn’t. When they started coming, that was when the Left was telling us we were “overpopulated” and we needed to limit ourselves to “replacement” families of two children each. In a country where families of 8-10 were not uncommon, Protestant OR Catholic.
What we are confronting now is a social experiment of vast and terrifying proportions, one where an incredibly successful nation decided to swallow a pill that possibly would kill it...no one knows. The experiment isn’t over yet. But the symptoms so far aren’t promising.
We all know that this is a bridge measure: he’s going along with 1 million since that’s a number the corporations want to keep wage demands in line. And the skills focus is to re-orient the whole thing away from millions of half wits from third world s**tholes into something vaguely sensible.
But it was all NEVER necessary. It was and is a replacement program dreamed up by people with agendas against America.
No point in continuing to appease their agenda by just skewing it a bit. How bout just stopping it cold in its tracks?
The entire system has been a shambles ever since drunk Uncle Teddy opened up the floodgates to illegals in the early 60’s.
“Sure. As long as they come from countries specified in the 1924 National Origins act.”
You must be one of them White Nationalists. We have been betrayed by money whores and other despicable vermin.

The 1965 immigration act was not only based on a lie but the worst legislation ever passed.
“People who have nothing to do with the original Americans “
The way we lose the message and create the wrong impression.
Curious, who do you consider the original Americans?
Great post. Our founding fathers and ancestors must be rolling over in their graves over what has happened to this country.
What screw job. Corporate welfare wage suppression at its worst. Jeb Bush and Karl Rove could have written this pig crap.
Sure. As long as they come from countries specified in the 1924 National Origins act.
That would be less bad - but best is closing the floodgates and hiring Americans for American jobs.
