I don't think absolute numbers tell the story. Also, it is not a complaint, really. I think the citizens in the US have a right to decide as a polity how they want to structure their immigration policies. However, in order to make a good decision, it is important to start with the full context. Here are some facts: US has 46.6 million in foreign born population and a total population of 333 million. [1][2] That makes about 13.9% of the total population to be foreign born. Australia has 29.1% of its population that is foreign born. [3] A little over 20% of the population of Canada is foreign born and it is projected to grow.
