Immigration to the USA is out of control.
Here is the factual future of America.
It's a simple matter of doing the MATH.

Well I mean we have to find a way to somewhat compensate for all of the ones that are here illegally. I am pro-immigration, I think it is one of the things that makes this nation so interesting and good. The illegal ones I do dislike, and wish we could get rid of them all and increase the number of legal ones. Not all from Latin America however, I mean let's let some of the Chinese, Japanese, and Europeans in.

Has it occurred to you that perhaps the reason there are "less" legal immigrants entering the country in 2003 is because the rest decided to just invade??

That's an asinine conclusion. That's like saying the reason we have more rapes than we used to is because American women haven't been as loose as they used to.
Bottom line is, we shouldn't care how the illegals feel when deciding important immigration policies for OUR country.

NOPE... We have more illegals because of failed policies.
We need to enforce our laws and send these criminals packing... It's not fair to us (US CITIZENS) for them to be here. And it's not fair to legal immigrants either.
We've always had some illegal alliens but this problem has become huge and must be dealt with.
Massive deportation is needed and yes I DO MEAN MASSIVE..... Send them home!

Yeah, but it has gone WAY up since 2003. We let in more legally than we ever have, and more than any other country in the world.
We need LIMITS not more.
In fact, according to Wikapedia, if immigration, births and deaths go on as they have, the census bureau predicts 1 BILLION people in the US by 2100.

No, I don't think that is the reason at all.
The illegals here now would never pass the numerous tests necessary to come here legally, plus they are just to lazy to try.
Easier for them to just get a coyote.

Don't think so. It is related to past amnesties and the belief there will be another.
