Because we're full! The U.S. population is already over 300 MILLION. It's not like we have to settle the western frontier! We're already paving over most of the farmland we need to feed all the people currently living here. We're running out of food, land, water, clean air, etc., etc. If we hope to maintain our living standard, we must stop more people from coming here. There is no "right to immigrate". Our resources are finite, and unless we want to turn our country into a densly populated, barren 3rd world nation then we better wake up and stop the inflow now. There just isn't room for any more people. We need to ban ALL legal Immigration and put the Marines on our borders (north & south) with authorization to shoot anyone attempting to enter "undocumented". It wouldn't be a massacre; after the first dozen killed, the rest would understand we're serious about controlling our borders. And no, there is NO comparison to the Berlin Wall; they were trying to keep their own citizens in, where as we are keeping outsiders from violating our borders. Anyone who wants to leave (and take a few million others with them) would be more than welcome to. Yes, we are a nation of immigrants- even the natives probably came here from somewhere else. But when my family came to this country in 1682 & 1872 we were still expanding the frontier westward. They were needed to clear the forests and plow the prairie. But now we're full from sea to shining sea. At some point we have to say enough is enough. It's being anti-anybody, it's self-preservation.

∙ 12y agoThey would overcrowd the US, much of them might be too poor and thus would just create more homeless people, we could be letting dangerous peopel in, the country, due to the previous reasoning, could start becoming more like a third world country, take India for example, it is completely crowded and full of people all over the streets.
And they would take advantage of the renowned medical benefits, unemployment benefits, and pensions.
