Too many people, there should absolutely be reasonable restrictions on immigration.
Who HONESTLY is "in favor" of more people, more traffic, more over-crowding, lower wages, etc? That's one thing i've never understood about the left. I've never seen or heard a sensible argument from the left explaining how increased traffic, more pollution, lower wages, etc are "good" things.
We have to fix our education system before ending immigration. We don't produce enough doctors and engineers to fill important jobs.
Is it the actual education system? Or is it cultural? If you can magically swap out the schools , teachers and professors with those of a well performing country, would that make a difference? I'm not sure it will.
If you want to call 1-1.5 million immigrants a year every year from everywhere on earth restriction . We're suppose to be the United States not the (dis)United Colonies of the UN .

For a country of 320 million people, no, that isn't a lot of immigrants, especially when you look at the fact that we have people also leaving the country, as well and our birth and death rate.
Of course that isn't good enough for you, it does sound like you would prefer to live in an isolation country where no one is allowed to immigrate to the US for any reason. I am guessing you would also want to restrict international travel into the country as well?
Our current immigration numbers are fine for me, the percentage of people immigrating here to the number of people that live her is extremely small.

How do you think we have 320 million people now to begin with? We've added over 60 million people just from immigration since the late 1960s, and many are non-interchangeable and non-compatible and Democrat voters. The rate was increase in 1990. We will have 400 million before you know what happened.
Leftist are devious.
I want less population growth and I want America's demographics to start returning toward the historic demographics. It's Americans' country, heritage and birthright and always will be.
