Is the trend toward socialism related to the rise in the immigrant population, or is it a natural political evolution? Would more births to native born Americans stifle this trend?

I don't know if it would stifle the trend toward socialism but I believe American born children tend to feel closer ties to this country. Another issue is the simple fact that new entrants aren't the same as immigrants from the past. When my great grandparents arrived they came with the intent of fitting in and only brought very minor cultural baggage with them.
