(559 posts)Most of the commenters here view unbridled immigration as solely an American problem. It is worldwide and actually a much greater challenge to Europe than here. Lest anyone be tempted to claim it's only white people who are upset by large influxes of immigrants I direct you to South Africa where immigrants are routinely killed and driven out of their shanties by the local African people.
An additional problem with massive immigration is the rise of right wing nationalists. We've seen numerous European countries shift rightward in reaction to the latest influx of refugees. In Sweden, the dream society of every left leaning person, right wing nationalists are a rising force that threatens to take over the state.
Clearly the world is overpopulated and until we begin to address that issue through VOLUNTARY birth control policies we will continue to see ever increasing numbers of climate and economic refugees pouring over borders.
