I like the idea of immigration, but think we should slow down third world immigration until the economy improves.

Our economy has always been driven by immigrants. If Somalis weren't here to take low paying jobs, even more jobs would go to China. And even low wage earners are consumers and taxpayers.

some immigration movements works better than others. this one? not so much. culturally, it just doesn't seem like a good fit, at least in large numbers. i also agree with Greg that it probably makes sense to slow the rate of immigration until we're in better shape economically.

You can just tell when you come across them DT Minneapolis that they just hate us. Why are you here if you cant take our customs and learn our ways. This is not your country and we dont want you to just come here and bleed us of our tax dollars. Thank you RT Rybak another good job of importing failiure.
