"any of them that can get away with doing this will do it"
I'd hope some or even many countries would opt out of these restrictions as an incentive to tourism and business.
- wybiral 9y agoThis story is specific to "immigrants", not tourists.
- always_good 9y agoTourists are already treated like they're trying to be immigrants. Ask your Mexican friends that got denied entry trying to visit Disneyland because the border agent was in a bad mood. Reading your other comments in this submission, it doesn't sound like you know many non-Americans who have experience with the US border.

From my understanding it's different depending on where you're visiting from. And, yes, I know non-Americans who visit people here (not sure what comments of mine you got that idea from).
- timthelion 9y agoThe intelligentsia of the east has always run west away from totalitarian regimes and these regimes have stood the test of time. All of central Asia has been controlled by totalitarian regimes since before democracy was invented. If the US becomes totalitarian, then where will the intelligentsia go? Is there going to be an ever shrinking realm of freedom? Perhaps north west Europe will be the last refuge? Hardly seems to be an appealing thought.
