Edward Abbey really hits the mark with this.....

"Especially when these uninvited millions bring with them an alien mode of life which - let us be honest about this - is not appealing to the majority of Americans. Why not? Because we prefer democratic government, for one thing; because we still hope for an open, spacious, uncrowded, and beautiful-yes, beautiful!-society, for another. The alternative, in the squalor, cruelty, and corruption of Latin America, is plain for all to see."

15 years later, the final sentence of this passage appears to be the destiny for America.

It doesn't matter.

As crowding from populaton growth (which is primarily from immigration, legal and otherwise) and rationing continue, our way of life will change--is changing--like it or not.
