- omegaworks 8y ago>If you say "the State is electing itself a new people" You're the only one saying that, though. The state does not create people out of whole cloth. You can only see immigration as anti-democratic when you see new immigrants as somehow inherently different than the inhabitants. When you discard any notion that they could be equal partners in building better lives here.
