Of course not; we should STOP all immigration until the bloated labor market stops lining up hundreds of overqualified workers for every entry-level job.
Business loves the current situation, but wages stagnated in the 1970s thanks to our overpopulated, over-educated, overqualified labor pool. Welcome to the Third World; there was a reason all those people fled it.

Having been married to a japanese lady for 17 years, I'm gonna say..the question is moot.
The Japanese really love their country. They love being "Japanese." This is huge event for them in many areas of their life. They'll get back on their feet, recover and press on.

And that makes them unique somehow? Americans love being American too and we let everyone know that on a constant basis much moreso than any other culture.

Here's a question for you.
You have a choice to buy something cheap from China.
You have a choice to buy something more expensive from America.
Which do you choose.
Which does the average American choose?
No. I think we should stop accepting refugees altogether, and start seriously limiting where our immigrants come from. I prefer 99% of our immigrants come from developed countries, I want an end to the DV Lottery, I want an end to all work visas, especially H visas which are abused by companies to import cheap Indian labor, and L visas which import office workers from Europe and other parts of the world when an unemployed American office worker could fill that job in. Overall, I want our immigration numbers to be capped at 5000 per year total with most of these 5000 being immediate relatives of the sponsor.
The family visas need to be restructured as well. Sponsors can only sponsor a spouse, no parents (which then they can sponsor their other children and so the cousins of the original sponsor can migrate as well) or siblings and those that they sponsor, can only bring their children (if they have any) hopefully that'll put an end to the chain migration fiasco that occurs.
How crazy is it, that we admit ONE MILLION foreigners to live in the U.S. every year, when unemployment is around 10%?? Something stinks to high heaven about this, and call me xenophobic, I don't care. We have no manufacturing jobs like we did before, more and more people are needing welfare as a result, and so many jobs are never coming back and immigrants keep getting added to the welfare rolls or displacing American workers. However, this is mostly the result because the vast vast majority of our immigrants come from developing nations as opposed to developed ones
