It use to be, but we are being balkanized because we are not strong enough in demanding we maintain a unified country and culture.

The country's balkanizing because we're being overwhelmed. Political correctness doesn't help either but immigration at moderate levels would diminish its effects somewhat.

In the eighties we took in approximately 500,000 annually and it didn't seem to be a problem. It was Ted Kennedy's 1990 Immigration Act that doubled quotas plus a complete lack of enforcement at the borders that has brought about this crisis.

The only way to solve it is by bringing the numbers back down to reasonable, traditional levels and some businesses need for janitors will have to take a back seat.

Why isn't this being stressed when people discuss building a wall linked with a policy of assimilation. We might not come off as being so hate filled and exclusionary. As it stands now with the prevailing attitude of keep everybody out and throw out the "bums" nothing meaningful will be done.

BTW in my part of the country we usually hire European immigrants because they are the most qualified. We would love to hire Americans, but we don't get the calls from qualified applicants.
