    This runs counter to what the politicians are constantly telling us.

    More Americans would decrease legal immigration: Poll


    By a nearly two-to-one margin, Americans believe legal immigration should be decreased rather than increased, according to a poll released Friday by Gallup.

    41 percent of respondents say immigration should be decreased, while only 22 percent believe it should be increased. 33 percent say it should be kept at its present level.


    More surprising to me was this:

    By contrast, only 19 percent would increase the flow of immigrants with a high school degree or less, while 47 percent would decrease it.

    Why is it then, that the entire political establishment is mobilized to import so many low skilled people?

    Obama defends decision to delay immigration action
    6 Sept.`14 WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama said Saturday that the surge of immigrant children entering the U.S. illegally changed the politics surrounding the issue of immigration and led him to put off a pledge to use executive action that could shield millions of people from deportation.

    HHS Delivers Unaccompanied Illegal Alien Children to Illegal Alien Parents in U.S.
    September 17, 2014 -- The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the federal office responsible for alien children who illegally cross the U.S. border without a parent or legal guardian, regularly hands these children over to illegal alien parents or sponsors already in the United States after processing, according to an on-the-record statement from an HHS spokesperson.
