VD Hanson and I share the same attitude towards immigration (and Mexicans, for that matter), but I still think the "assimilationist" model is dead. The most we can hope for is peaceful coexistence.
Then again, I do see many second and third generation Nuyoricans and Dominicanyorks assimilating...into ghetto culture that is.

I think Hanson underestimates the effects of large scale LEGAL immigration.
The more you have, the harder it is to assimilate the immigrants.
