s are descendants of immigrants, why do you think discrimination against today's immigrants persists? Do you think immigration should be restricted, or that it should be available to anyone who wants to move to America?

Immigration should not be restricted, Americans today have struggled to understand the concept of accepting everyone, people need to really let go, granted, over time many people have grown to accept other races, but it will never be something that everyone accepts.

There was not a hard cutoff, but there has been a severe attitude shift.

In the former attitude, the immigrants moved to America to be Americans, retaining some of their culture, but mostly learning to accept other cultures and associate with other cultures. We called this idea "The Meltingpot".

In the more current attitude, the immigrants move to America to be themselves in an American Environment, retaining most of their culture and substantially failing to mix with other cultures. We call this idea "The Mosaic". The fallacy, here, is in the failure to recognize that the Meltingpot is what created the American Environment.

I do not know how to restructure Immigration Policy so that Meltingpot candidates can come easily and Mosaic candidates can go where they will be happier.

These are my views based on a little thought on the matter. I could be persuaded to hold a different attitude, given the presentation of compelling evidence to the contrary.
