The US, IMHO, should have open immigration to anyone with a job offer. If the real worry were (as is sometime claimed) people going on the dole shortly after arriving, you could just eliminate such privileges for new immigrants for, say, 10 years after they immigrate. Unfortunately, bigotry and xenophobia, and the insane belief that immigrants "take jobs away from locals" will prevent this from ever happening. Perry -- Perry E. Metzger [EMAIL PROTECTED]
