- jimbob45 4y agoI'm not really interested in total number of immigrants currently in place, rather, the immigration by year (particularly the current year). Examining that required that we analyze the choices of past administrations and pore through historical events that may have affected immigration. It's much more useful, in my opinion, to look at how the choices governments are making today are affecting their immigration numbers today. You're not wrong that the numbers on immigration percentages are a bit skewed but that's not a debate that I find worthwhile.
