Since people in other countries can move to other countries they should be happy.  There's no reason for anyone to get upset about not being able to move to the US when they can moved to over 180 other countries.  President Arthur banned the Chinese for 10 years and after that the country only admitted 105 per year until 1965.  

Heck, Mexico wouldn't give American black people visas until July 1935.  And Australia wouldn't admit them either.  

Maybe we should be completely fair and just admit 105 people from every country each year.

So basically, wind the clock back on immigration policy 50+ years and then amplify it? Right...

What others in other places in other times did is of no relevance to the here and the now
