Well, I don’t really see much difference between unlimited legal immigration and essentially unlimited illegal immigration. None of these pro-immigration folks seem to consider the cultural impact of allowing so many people from other cultures into the country. It’s not like we’re importing millions who believe in the original American ideals of liberty, independence, and morality.
Just because some of the arguments against past immigration were proven wrong, it doesn’t mean those same arguments are still wrong considering the changes in the world over the last 100 years or so. That’s faulty logic on the face of it. Things change, and America is NOT what it once was. Does anyone seriously believe the Democrats would be bending over backwards to let these folks in if the new imports believed in small government?
What’s really funny is that John Stossel seems to truly oppose big government, but on this issue, he’s actually advocating for even bigger government. The socialist clock in America isn’t going to be turned back by the importation of millions of socialists from Mexico and other points south.
people like Stossel only want smaller, or no Govt when it suits what they want to do and have.
