The native population of this country decided the land was full in the 1970s. Native born birth rates leveled to replacement. The current immigration paradigm is a political agenda at odds with democracy. Poll after poll shows pretty much everybody agrees we don't need more people. What we have here is a political alliance between certain business interests and certain ethnic interest groups to benefit at the expense of the majority.
