Yes. You have touched upon the point that I intended in my reference in Reply #24, to the Kennedy Immigration Act of 1965. But even with reference to traditional European immigration, we need to screen out more of those wedded to Socialistic dogma than we succeeded in doing previously. America, in all her institutions, depends upon a population that assumes a level of personal, individual responsibility, which very few today exhibit. We have got to face this problem or we will go the way of Classic Rome--only in a far shorter time frame.
The problem with most of you is that you are not studying the economic ramifications of totalling limiting immigration. You prefer to live in a fantasy world.
It’s no longer considered proper to say it, but shifting immigration away from Europe has been a major mistake.
It’s one we’re going to pay for dearly. Diversity accomplishes little aside from seeding tension. You see it over and over again. And I’ve seen it aplenty coming from the Latin immigrant communities and Muslim communities as of late. And it will get worse.
These societies have not tradtionally placed a strong emphasis on education and came to the US in search of goodies. Well, they got them. And now we’re stuck with them.
When you look at the percentages of Americans graduating from our universities, you realize we’re not doing so well. And our secondary education is an absolute joke. We’ve created a society so afraid to offend that we’ve stifled the expectation to exceed. It’s simply not there.
Funny, the states that are doing best in education in our country are states like Maine, Wisconsin, Montana, and North Dakota. Very diverse. Not much in common. Except that they’re homogenous.
On top of this, I have no idea why our nation is wasting its time with Latin American immigration when we have Cental and Eastern Europe and Asia full of English-speaking and educated potential immigrants who would love to become American. But we do.
