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.
