You're being played and apparently don't even realize it.

Give me a break. I hadn't even heard of Tancredo when I started calling it an invasion. I live in Kaliforniastan, dude. You should really try to make better points than these. Sell us on why we need all of this immigration. What does it do for Americans? What does it do for our future? Why do we want to be transformed? The recent crop has its roots in 1956 and 1964 civil rights legislation.

People actually thought that our self-inflicted diversity wasn't enough, and we ought to take it up a couple of notches. I don't think it's working.

Suit yourself. Advocate what you want. But you haven't changed my mind, and certainly your critiques of my motivations are having no positive effects at all. I don't think you're persuading many other FReepers, either.

It only helps people who buy houses, agricultural produce, clothes, cars; eat at restaurants, stay at hotels, have roofs repaired, drive on roads, sell equipment, provide professional services, invest in stocks, use childcare, buy gasoline, use electricity, and are dependent upon a strong growing economy.

Hermits that live off the land in remote areas and never go into town probably don't benefit from immigrant labor as much.
