That’s raw numbers. Not percentage. In 1910 the population of the US was 92 million people, so that nearly 10 million immigrants on your chart was 10% of the COUNTRY. Much larger than the 13 million in 2010.

Ever been to Chinatown? Greek town? Irish town? The Little Italy. Nobody assimilates in the first generation. Nothing new about it. And our crime rates are actually dropping quite drastically.

Those waves also came from China. And Mexico. And the Middle East. Nothing different.

They came here legally because we largely had an open door policy. They didn’t assimilate for at least a generation. Hence why so much of New York is STILL ethnic conclaves. Sorry but in reality the only real difference between this and the late 19th early 20th century wave is that they’re a much smaller percentage of the country.

A country that is de industrializing does not need to import ONE more person from anywhere for a long long time. We have 320 million now. All immigration should be halted for 30 or more years. The USA has been MORE than accommodating but too much is too much. We can assimilate the one we have now.

and they’ll come here and have 1.2 kids while non-Europeans are having 4.8 kids.

A - industrialization has nothing to do with immigration
B - manufacturing is a higher percentage of our GDP than it was in 1910
C - you are, once again, simply wrong

You are probably an immigrant so list up pal.
- You feel compelled to defend the astronomical LEGAL immigration levels of the last 40 years because if you don't you will feel like a hypocrite.
- You should feel lucky you got in but you should also realize the obvious: that the USA immigration policy (lottery and chain)is not working, immigrants are not assimilating and the USA is hurtling towards socialism largely due to the huge immigrant population.
- Americans can say when enough is enough, foreign nationals have no right to come here.
- Anyone defending the current legal immigration system is an idiot or a fool.

Ahh there you go with your addiction to bad ass-u-mptions. Nope, 4th generation for the important parts of my family. So listen up yourself:
you’re wrong.
you’re ALWAYS wrong.
You’re just not that freaking smart.

That's why they now use the word integration rather than assimilation. THAT!
It's a false premise and will lead to ruin. The biggest political scam in the past three or four decades. I've come to despise that "i"-word with a passion. (Never mind that it is us who are expected to provide said "integration" in that scam...)
