You sound like a total bigot.

That's my opinion.

Can't say fuck all about the US immigration problem, it's harder for them to get here. In our case I'm only for letting people in when there is a genuine shortage in skilled labor in the specific area, they can bring their culture with them all they like, in fact I welcome it.

The US does not have an immigration problem. It has problems of xenophobia and bigotry.

There are approximately 20 MILLION illegals in the US. Contrary to popular belief, they are NOT entitled to welfare,and DO pay taxes, from which they derive little benefit.

At the same the same time illegals are exploited unconscionably and do much of the menial work citizens will not do. [for the same low pay] If all illegals were removed tomorrow,the US would come to a screeching halt.

if you're going to change the culture of the territory you move to, why move?

The US is not today an homogenous culture and has has not been for at least a century. EG California is heading towards an Hispanic majority. The city of Washington already has a black majority. Many American cities have huge minorities of varying ethnicities,each has its own culture.

In a free society, the culture to which one adheres must be a matter of personal choice and custom. My ethnicity and personal cultural loyalty is nobody else's business as long I comply with the law of the land. I have every right to try to change whatever I want,using the rule of law.

Australia has a similar issue, write small: The non issue of a few thousand refugees who arrive by boat from the Middle East. What is minor humanitarian issue has been turned into a major political issue by pandering to the worst qualities of human beings. It's quite disgusting and has earned my contempt for our major political parties. (it's not possible for me to be more contemptuous of the mass media).

I am thinking here Padraic that the underlying issue of scarce water resources is something that is a problem in Aust. least of all the housing issue. I am finding also that even the 'skilled' immigrants are so bad and immigrant-based-nepotism is becoming an issue especially in the motor-trades since most of our qualified, skilled labour is "off to the mines".
