Default Re: Immigration

I think the laws are strict because there is this general nationalist fear that if "we" let "them" "take over", "we" will lose power, "our culture", and may become second-class citizens.

"We/Us" -- the average stereotypical Americans

"Them" -- outsiders or foreigners to America

"Our culture" -- what makes "us" different from "them"

"Take over" -- immigration in large numbers

It's basically jingoism and xenophobia.
