    Should America Open its Borders? Free Immigration?

    Think about it... the greatest fundamental industrial change to the USA occurred when it practiced open migration in the late 1800s.

    Maybe if the US opens it's borders and ports again it will experience the same fundamental change that improved it immensely.

                          It's just "closed" (not 100%, they give a few thousads greencards) for legal immigration.

                            Letting new brainpower into country is a good thing. I dont think I would open it up totally. There has to be some safeguards in place

                                  Yep. The Alamo was all about a bunch of illegal immigrants that fought back against the Mexican government.

                                    US Immigration has been rising rather steadily since the 1930s.

                                                    Sure, just as long as you open your borders in Sweden for all muslims. You go first and show us how great it works then we'll go second.

                                                    It's obvious you aren't in Texas if you want open borders. The Interstate is already so crowded it's a nightmare and there is no public transportation.

Engineering, medical, even law schools are now reporting a significant decline in applications from foreign students. A review of immigration to this country for educational purposes is appropriate, but changes need to be made to expedite the process or else we will see a significant decline in the brain power exported here.

                                                                              The main reasons I say this is for one thing with the terrorism threat the US faces now having an open border would be very stupid and dangerous. Second, is taxes. Illegal immigrants often don't pay taxes and then send their children to schools, and go to the emergency rooms and free clinics for all their medical needs thereby draining the system with out adding to it. You don't have that problem nearly as much with legal documented immigrants.

                                                                                        Some people though tend to point to cultural and artificial differences between nations and think this is causing a "decline of American power". This ranges from the inane such as McDonald's fast food to the insane such as the American press. (the majority of anti-American of anti-Bush stories that show up on GFY come from American reporters). People ask "how can people think so differently than me?" and then mythologize the answer to include things like "Americans don't have a critical press". People have difficulty believing that people can have access to the same information as them and have a different belief as to how to interpret it.

                                                                                        With the breakup of the USSR America is more powerful today relative to the rest of the world than she was 20 years ago.

                                                                                        America won't decline as much as other nations will rise up. The population advantage will shift toward Asia. Too bad you'll be dead.

(the majority of anti-American of anti-Bush stories that show up on GFY come from American reporters). People ask "how can people think so differently than me?" and then mythologize the answer to include things like "Americans don't have a critical press". People have difficulty believing that people can have access to the same information as them and have a different belief as to how to interpret it.
                                                                                                The internet has really levelled the playing field in the distribution of information. Prior to the mid 90s though, I would disagree that American press was so diverse. Pockets of America were exposed to widely varying opinions but the majority of America was educated to current affairs but their local newspaper and the three biggies on TV, ABC/CBS/NBC. All you had to do was leave the United States and see even the Toronto Globe or the London Newspapers to see that the majority of American journalism was in fact slanted pro American. I left the United States for a year in the mid 80s and it was a real eyeopener to me how the media really can kill or extend the life of any issue and just how much American journalism is in fact opinion.

I should be a bastard to the world because I was born in the USA but I am not an Indian. Like the board says GFY....
