No.Legal immigration is great, it's a gift for the economy of this country
2 millions a year would be really great !
Look at Japan's 2 lost decades and population decline, sorry but no thanks
I wish immigration would be more fair... if you look at the demographics we do NOT need any more hispanics... we should immigrate people to be EVENLY divided in this country... such as 1/4 hispanics, 1/4 white (europeans and others), 1/4 asians, and 1/4 africans.... why we constantly choose one race over another is unbelievable... how can the US be so inequitable...
I don't believe the 1.0+ million green cards issued are for spouses of American citizens. My guess is it's probably less than 10%. Even less if you subtract out naturalized citizens.
The number of immigrants who gain residency through marriage to a US citizen is already higher than the suggested 250,000. If your 250K limit is to work, I suspect you'll have to curb the practice, no?

I'll say this though immediate relatives of US citizens is an astounding category. For example you have 100K parents of US Citizens immigrating here a year. This is driven mostly by the anchor baby phenomenon or recent naturalized citizens.

I doubt the Japanese want to experience the miracle of immigration that has graced Europe...Miracles such as Muslim immigrant riots in France, terrorism in Spain, "No-Go" areas in European cities that native Europeans cant go into due to the risk of being killed. Not to mention the sky high crime rate in immigrant communities, and the refusal to become European.
The Japanese I bet, took one look at how immigration is effecting the European culture and said thanks but no thanks. A declining population is better than a growing one that is not your culture.

Japanese love their culture and don't want that, that's right..But they don't have babies they need to pay their Social Security.
Japanese population :
0-14 years old : 13.8% of Japan population
65 years and over : 23%

I thought conservatives never cared about the ethnicity of immigrants?
