these folks with a history of oligarchies and turmoil will turn America into the shining beacon of responsible conservatism it always should have been.

All I see is this country drifting farther to the left.

Comparing immigrants of today to immigrants of old is absurd. 150 to 300 years ago, this country was basically a wilderness. People had to carve a society out of this with basically their bare hands. Clearing the land for farming, building a railroad system, starting of factories. (no welfare and few hospitals). Even 100 to 150 years ago had to be tough. Still no welfare.

These immigrants of today are walking right into a country who has the greatest interstructure on the face of this earth. To get welfare, all they have to do is ask.

No comparison.

I agree. Circumstances are quite different.

I have usually embraced a reasonable number of immigrants...especially those running from collectivist tyranny.

However, in 1965 (geez, so many great things came out of LBJ and the Dems of that period)....all of that changed....and now here we are....open doors essentially.

Now, when I tried to get residency for my ex-wife (brasil) back when we were married with 2 girls...the INS treated us like dirt and I had to pay about 5K to a "migra" lawyer.

Now, just walk in....get medical care, an education in your native tongue, vote dem, welfare....hell...who can blame them..lol
