"7. Tighten up on legal immigration and make it skills and education based"

I disagree with that one, and here's why. A white, English-speaking, pro-American woman from South Africa and married to a US citizen tried to get her US citizenship for 10 years. That couple is understandably angry for life. There's no sense in even inhibiting such people of our culture from coming and staying in the USA or requiring large bribes in the form of fees from them. They're the American-culture wives, husbands and children of Americans, and they don't cost us what others do (e.g., one cost being the current decline of our nation).

An anti-American woman (loan officer) of equatorial culture, great "education" and "skills" bragged about getting permanent residence and becoming a citizen within a year, along with her whole highly skilled, foreign-language-speaking, extended family (all employed).

One was already very much American culture, and the other wasn't. We don't need tens of millions of non-assimilating people here for nothing more than money or some false concept of "class." That attitude is dragging our country down to immoral, third-world standards.

America was settled by northern European Protestants for a good reason, and their cause was the foundation for our particular Constitution. No other group at that time would have written or agreed upon such a Constitution, and we see many contemporary, public arguments in favor of violating it. Without the morality of our founding people,... Well, we see the results of that loss in process now, and we're throwing it away for the sake of material lusts.

Besides, our system of formal "education" is a major contributor to the collapse. So are the citizen-of-the-world, socialist employers, who now define skills--too many deleterious social skills. There are impoverished people putting their skills to work with what little they have. Most who are now highly paid and esteemed are devoid of useful skills (technical skills) and do little more than cause trouble to their neighbors (e.g., pensioned HOA/socialist shrews and their effeminate "partners").

But then in regards to decline, maybe we do need that, followed by better rebuilding. Maybe we should proceed with nonpolitical politics.

The easy remedy here is to return to European only immigration which was our policy prior to the 1965 Immigration Act. Many East Europeans of good character and good education would love to move here. So would British and others

If you include illegal immigration then immigration since 1965 has been 90% non-European. This makes 46 years for those policies so going European only immigration for a few decades is reasonable
