Twenty-First-Century Immigration Policy for the USA
We hear the saying "we are a nation of immigrants" often. Historically, this was true up to the 20th century. It was to our advantage to import many people from several different countries and various parts of the world to serve our need to grow and become economically stronger.
Up to the end of the 19th and early 20th centuries, the main criterion for admission of immigrants was health, or at least those with obvious disease were ruled out. During the last half of the 20th century, an effort was made to increase diversity in immigrants, but the diversity was entirely racial and religious and was not focused on accomplished or trained versus uneducated and unaccomplished.
