We can't do so with a welfare state. Socialism is incompatible with immigration.
Secondly, I doubt that you would want America becoming some resemblence of the United Nations, because that is what is going to happen if widescale, unchecked immigration is going to lead us. Down the path of multiculturalism, bickering, group politics, more socialism, loss of freedoms, more taxes, etc.
Multi-culturalism is a disease of the decadent upper middle class. Most poor immigrants know a good thing when they see it and want to assimilate.
Like I said, I would like immigration reduced to 75,000 per year. This, of course, after a ten, possibly twenty, year immigration moratorium.
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.
Furthermore, I think that for the best interests of the country that we should admit at least an 80% majority of immigrants from the western world. (Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Japan
God no. Those people are the worst Socialists the world has to offer. The pathetic dregs of a collapsed culture.
I'd much rather have the Chinese, Vietnamese, Mongolians, etc. Those people are some most dynamic, resourceful folks on earth.

While I agree that immigration and socialism are at odds, I do not believe that unchecked immigration is good, regardless if we have a socialist system or not. With widescale, unlimited, and unchecked immigration, you have pressures placed on the culture, schools, environment, voting booth, social group politics, assimilation, etc.

No, multiculturalism is a mindset and it running rampant within all classes. Sure, much of the very wealthy have promoted it, but it is not only the rich who buy it. Many of the newcomers believe that it is okay to remain seperate and not assimilate, for we're a chamber pot. They actually think that it is what America is about.

Wow, I haven't heard that one before, the Emma Lazarus poem. It shows the true sign of a liberal. In case you hadn't noticed, the U.S., in its history, has slowed and curtailed immigration after high numbers. Why can't we do the same now? It's obvious that immigration, as it now stands, may be a recipe for future problems. It's alreay happening.

So let me get this right. You would rather our immigration come from non-western countries, of which assimilation into the mainstream would probably never be totally accomplished, for group politics, social representation, etc. will constantly be promoted. Furthermore, when taking into account history, of which people of different cultures have witnessed many problems living side by side, you think it is okay to toy with this? I'm sorry, but, in my opinion, immigration must be restricted to 75,000 per year, and it must be from western countries. It is in the best interests in the LONG TERM (for all you short term thinkers)for America.
Furthermore, you're berating Europe (though I agree some of the things are there are terrible), but you're acting as though China is a model society? Hello, forced government slaughter of the unborn. A communist system, no representation. This is a model society? Meanwhile, you know that they're probably never going to assimilate totally into the mainstream, as long as there are high numbers of non-western immigration. You're more likely to see balkanized fragments, etc. Again, a natural outcome based on preference and comfort.
For America's sake, let's knock out the political correctness and think rationally.
