Victor Davis Hanson has just coauthored The Immigration Solution: A Better Plan Than Today’s. The evidence makes it abundantly clear that the welfare benefits available to illegal immigrants have resulted in the unintended consequences of establishing a new permanent underclass. The more recent Hispanic illegal aliens have extremely high illegitimacy rates, arrest records, contempt for education, and care little about becoming assimilated Americans. To be blunt, these people are often very dangerous and destructive.
The United States should eagerly seek new immigrants—who have something to offer. We should care less about their race or ethnicity. The 1965 immigration act regrettably established the tacit notion that America is a racist nation and must be punished for its past sins. We therefore have no right to deny anyone possessing brown skin. This nonsense must cease as quickly as possible.
