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...
Can you list any country where anyone can just walk in and set up house? So you have 191 countries and not one of them will let aliens walk in and take over. Sure, a lot of countries take in thousands of refugees from war zones but they won't accept other aliens just because they might want to move there.
The whole thing is pretty much a BS issue designed to make some people feel good about themselves while screwing over their fellow citizens.
