Should America remain a nation of immigrants?
North America, (specifically the USA) has always been a 'nation of immigrants', beginning with Europeans who immigrated here, raping the environment, the natural resources and the natives. Non-European immigrants have brought industry, innovation, manual labor and diversity to America.***(Mexico, Central and South America have also been raped by European 'immigrants', only to a much greater degree).***The majority of Americans have 'immigrant' blood in their veins, from both the voluntary and involuntary 'immigrants'.***The immigrants who come here today do the work that most Americans won't. They thrive on lower standards of living than most Americans would put up with and the majority of them work harder, for less pay. They benefit the nation, as well as the economy and should be allowed to continue their immigration.***Quit your whining.***America is a very wealthy nation and most Americans are 'spoiled rotten'. The "Americans" who complain about 'immigration' seem to be complaining only about 'non-European' immigrants. Don't think for a minute that this is not obvious to the World.***Anything Americans worry about losing to 'immigrants' was most likely stolen from the Native-Americans in the first place. American society has had and will always have room at the 'bottom rung of the ladder' for immigrants, minorities, the 'under educated' and the poor. America should remain a nation of 'immigrants'.
