People here arguing that the US should accept more immigrants from all over the world because "the US has been built on immigrants" need to get their facts straight: The "National Origins Formula" was only abolished in 1965. Before 1965, US immigrants were 90+% white. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Origins_Formula http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Origins_Formula [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_Nationality_Act_of_1965 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_Nationality_Act... This is fact, not opinion. I'm not arguing a certain side here, but want to point out that those who say "the US has been built on immigrants" might be nostalgic to a past that never existed.
