The Big Deal is that RAZD Misses the Intricaces of a Complicated Situation... Again
Back at the start of this country there was virtually unregulated immigration, and I don't see any moral justification for more regulation or barriers to immigration.
There was also a population shortage.
There should be one single basic requirement: that you want to become a US citizen (and anyone not wanting to become a citizen would need a work visa or student visa to stay longer than a typical vacation).
That's it? If you want to be a U.S. citizen to make it easier to fly planes into buildings then that should be just fine?
Seems to me that this program could be revived with some modifications:
  • You sign on for 5 years of work, employers provide lists of jobs to sign up for,
  • For each dependent not capable of work (child\parent\handicapped) you need an able bodied worker to do their work,
  • You learn english and american history in schools,
  • At the end you pass a proficiency test in english and history
As usual, RAZD, your blanket fixes are little more than oversimplified nonsense to which no reasonable person should give second thought.

Re: The Big Deal is that Jon hyperventilates paranoia ... Again
Excellent. A non-response. Exactly what I anticipated getting from you.
Makes my job easier, I guess.

Re: indentured servitude still alive and kicking
Also, did you know that immigrants from the UK are not even eligible for the green card lottery? that is restricted to natives of many 3rd world countries who apparently need it more.
The lottery has nothing to do with 'need'. It is a Multiculturalism policy specifically meant to 'shake up' the cultural identity of America by introducing people with foreign cultural practices that are often totally incompatible with the Western ideals of freedom and individual liberty.

What job is that?
Pointing out that RAZD lives in a fantasy world where all of his half-cooked ideas solve any problem imaginable.
It's dirty work, most of the time, but someone's gotta do it.

And who's to say that the new wave of immigrants won't be stronger than us?
They aren't.
And they won't be.
Edited by Jon, : No reason given.

Well, that's less than I question about you, so I'll take that as a win.
