Repeating from Last Year, Immigration-then and now

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
From last year's post here.

The Senate has chosen to create a new second class of citizenry, selling illegal aliens "citizenship" - a citizenship of servitude - for a payment of $5000 - otherwise known as extortion. Those who have chosen to pursue the avenue of legal immigration are evidently penalized for abiding by the rules.

Apparently some in the hallowed halls of Congress see a new block of voters that they can exploit in advancing a socialist agenda while others see a new source of cheap labor to exploit to further their profit margins. The U.S. Capitol is overrun with with traitors, enemies of America.

...A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.
Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh
