IMO we need a total hiatus similar to 1920 through 1965. At least a generation.

Thats what we would do if we had intelligent, far sighted people running the country who have the nations best interests at heart instead of their own.

Of course we low thats not the case.

There wasn't a hiatus per se. We just admitted enough immigrants that it was similar to replacement level for those who died or emigrated.

Since 1990 we have admitted about 30 million LEGAL PERMANENT IMMIGRANTS. In 1970 there were 9.7 million foreign born; today, it has quadrupled to 41 million. The 1965 Immigration Act changed the demographics of this country forever.
