And that's why all of the immigration from 1890-1920 resulted in the United States becoming a Third World nation. Yeah, right.And do you know what happened in 1920?
The 1920 immigration act, which severely limited immigration until it was repealed in 1965, thus giving the country time to recover and assimilate them
We are doing exactly the opposite.
Right?

So if we severely curtailed immigration in 1920, how did the Great Depression happen nine years later? How is it there were enough jobs for thirty years of high immigration, yet so many jobs were lost when immigration was low? Doesn't that refute the argument that immigrants take jobs away?
Forty-five years to assimilate immigrants! What horse-hockey! General "Blackjack" Pershing was told by the French that it would take four years to create an effective American Army in France. Pershing told them "it never took America four years to do anything."
There are hundreds of channels on Cable TV. How many are in Spanish? Maybe three or four?
I don't lose much sleep over our nation being conquered by Mexicans. Maybe I'm just an optimist.
