| Zusammenfassung: | We will always be a nation of immigrants. But runaway immigration rates - far beyond traditional levels - are now savaging American society on many fronts. This rigorously reported, deeply humane book documents the crisis and points the way out of a government-engineered mess that benefits the rich at the expense of almost everyone else including immigrants The immigration choices we face as a nation, and their costs, have never been presented as fully and fairly as in this book. Its moral and practical implications for America are inescapable. It resets the parameters of an explosive national debate and points the way toward a humane immigration policy that can heal the damage, honor America's best traditions and ideals, and ensure that America remains a society of opportunity for all its citizens, including immigrants |
