If you have a melting pot you don’t just melt the good parts you melt also the bad ones remember that.
If more immigrants would assimilate I wouldn’t have as much of a problem with them, as well as if they come here permanently, and they say, “my country”, they’d better mean America. If they still have loyalties to where they came from, they should go back there.
There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all. This is just as true of the man who puts “native” before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or English or French before the hyphen.
Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance. But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else. The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans, or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality than with the other citizens of the American Republic.
The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American.
-Theodore Roosevelt, October 12, 1915
To a point this is true of course but I think that we have witnessed a virtual invasion of people who may not blend in so well with our increasingly technological society in the long run. East Indians seem to have no problems assimilating and contributing to a far greater extent, for example. Since Mexicans, particularly the ones who come here illegally do not value education nearly as much and so many of their offspring form gangs and wind up in our huge prison system.
If illegals actually assimilated (spoke English, paid taxes, supported their families independently and did not consume taxpayer funded benefits) then no one would care if they were here legally or not. The problem arises when our nation incurs great expense on their behalf specifically due to their unwillingness to assimilate.
We don’t want ASSimilation.
We want DEPORTATION.
NOW!!!!!!!!!
It only works with first world to first world immigrants.
The third world culture is too far removed to ever assimilate.
See - Tower of Babel and Sarajevo.
