Rationality

The point is that in times past, the majority of immigrants assimilated into American society. Today, they seem to be trying to change America to be like their old homeland. Immigration by people who want to become Americans (as opposed to African-American, Chinese-American, etc.) seems pointless. As long as the immigrant wants to be called "Country-of-origin-American" they ought to go back to their country of origin until they want to be AMERICANS.
