Legal and Illegal Immigration Impacts

In my previous article on Illegal Immigration, which you can find by scrolling down through my collection of blogs or clicking on Illegal Immigration (posted 7 September 2007) in the yellow box on the right of your screen, I wrote about the immediate threat of other than Mexican (OTM) illegal immigrants. That situation is the highest priority for the continued safety of Americans in the short term, but the long term effects of an uncontrolled population will definitely change the lifestyle to which you have become accustomed, and eventually will destroy the United States. This commentary is about the obvious impacts and threat to the continued existence of America by the shear number of uncontrolled immigrants who are only looking for a better life for themselves and their families and not necessarily entering the country for the purpose of conducting terrorist or criminal activities.

The beginning of the problem is centered with President Kennedy’s legislative recommendation to Congress in 1963 with his suggestion that the national quota system on immigration be eliminated. Committee hearings on the Bill began in January 1964 with no further action and the bill expired with the adjournment of the Eighty-eighth Congress. However, President Johnson gave new life to President Kennedy’s recommendation and Hearings began again in February 1965. The Hart-Celler Immigration Act of 1965 that eventually passed favored Latin America and Asian immigration and included a feature that opened a flood gate which ruefully labeled the bill as the “Brother and Sister Act.”

This was the problem then and still is a problem. An Asian or Latin American student comes to America to study in the late 1960’s to the present day. Upon graduation they apply to the Labor Department for permission to work in the United States. Thus, they become an official legal immigrant who wishes to reunite his or her family. Under the 1965 law, the new immigrant requests that his/her parents, spouse and children join them in America. Those family members become citizens and then petition for their brothers, sisters, and parents to join them. All the new arrivals then petition for their relatives to join them. It was and is a disastrous, but legal chain reaction.

In 1970, America’s population was approximately 203 million and by 1973, there were fewer than 2.1 children being born per productive female in the country. That was very close to zero population growth for our nation. At that rate of replacement and loss due to deaths and those leaving the country, it was projected that the U.S. population would reach 247 million by 2030. However, given the flaw in the 1965 Immigration Act and the uncontrolled borders of the United States, we are now well over 300 million residents at the moment (10/8/07). The government has no clue as to how many illegal immigrants have entered the United States. It could be any number from 12-30 million or more that are not counted in the census. The true number will become substantially more critical for the country’s resources of food, disease outbreaks, water, energy, health care costs and services, poverty support efforts, driving down the collective IQ of the natioin, lawlessness, social conflicts, unemployment, school construction, voter fraud, transportation, illegal drug use, the loss of common language and culture (Congress recently voted down English as a mandatory requirement) depletion of natural resources, higher taxes and practically everything else you can think of from here on unless the 1965 Act and illegal immigration are dramatically controlled.

I recommend that you listen to the following video presentation on YouTube:

Factor in global warming impacts and subsequent migration that will occur for survival, terrorism threats and the fact that China’s population of more than 1.4 billion, of which they now have more people with an Intelligence Quotient of 140 or more than the United States has population….the conclusion is America’s only chance for survival is if the government gets complete control of immigration and pursues aggressive programs which will dramatically increase the country’s science and engineering graduates.
