The world's poor population is growing faster than we could possible take them in. Will we "feel" better if we admit so many people that we drive down our own standard of living to second or third-world levels? Better to help other countries with their economic and political situation than try to solve poverty by bringing the world's poor to live with us. It's up to citizens of other countries to spend some effort in their own countries and not just take the easy out by insisting on living here. At some point we are all going to have to seriously consider population controls - a sustainable human population is very likely much less than the current population. How much immigration is enough?
