Well, a lot of "self-respecting" - and successful - countries take in a lot more immigrants than we do

The US was made what it is by successive waves of immigrants. The fact that it's now trying to erect more barriers to immigration shows how much it's lost its sense of what it is and stands for in recent years

In general, immigrants keep the peace, work fecking hard and contribute economically and culturally beyond their numbers.
