Immigration: How much is enough?

+== TIME OUT PROJECT ==+
During last year's presidential campaign, ProjectUSA director Craig
Nelsen asked candidate George W. Bush, a supporter of current levels of
legal mass immigration, at what point he thought immigration levels
should finally be reduced: when U.S. population had reached a billion?
Two billion? Three? The future president was stymied (he didn't even
know what chain immigration is) -- and has still not answered this
important question.
To see a video of his humorous non-response, click on the picture
of George Bush on the home page of http://www.vdare.com/
The question "where do we stop?" remains a valid one, however. What
makes it so useful?
1. It acknowledges that public policies should be considered in view of
their consequences
2. It reminds us that current mass immigration levels will double U.S.
population within the lifetime's of today's children and
3. Pro-mass immigrationists like President Bush haven't been able to
answer it -- revealing the weakness of their position.
+== TAKE POSITIVE ACTION ==+
In another shocking example of irresponsible and short-sighted public
policy pronouncements on immigration, Delaware Democratic Senator Joe
Biden said Tuesday in an Associated Press report that he "supported
opening the borders from 'Costa Rica to Canada,' an idea that (Mexican
President Vincente) Fox has voiced often since his election July 2.
'There is no reason we can't move in that direction,' Biden said."

(By the way, Mexico routinely deports Guatemalans who are illegally in
Mexico).
Let the Senator know that there is a very good reason we can't open the
borders: the American people don't WANT open borders; and the wishes of
the American people should matter more in the formulation of U.S. border
policy than corrupt foreign governments and corporate profiteers with
vested interests.

+== QUOTE OF THE WEEK ==+
We have to address the population issue. The United Nations, with the
U.S. supporting it, took the position in Cairo in 1994 that every
country was responsible for stabilizing its own population. It can be
done. But in this country, it's phony to say "I'm for the environment
but not for limiting immigration." It's just a fact that we can't take
all the people who want to come here. And you don't have to be a racist
to realize that. However, the subject has been driven out of public
discussion because everybody is afraid of being called racist if they
say they want any limits on immigration.

+==EMAIL OF THE WEEK==+
You have put together one of the better websites dealing with the issue
of illegal immigration and immigration I have come across. But as you
have indicated, your billboard in NY lasted...13 days? Before
politicians labeled it racist? I suspect we are up against an elite and
entrenched system of money counters who for whatever reason believe that
continued unchecked illegal immigration will line their pockets.... and
will deploy whatever labels (racist) and subsequent authority (take that
billboard down) against those who would forward the best interests of
our nation at the expense of their investment portfolios. What ever
happened to the once respected concept of zero population growth? It
got in the way of profit, and is now...by our enlightened standards of
the new millennia...exposed for it's racist implications. I could not
be more in agreement with everything you present....but what in God's
name can we do when the lemmings have their SUV's and their Sitcoms?
