That's true, which is all the more reason to halt it. Overcrowding can cause serious ecological problems, and at over 300M people the US is crowded enough. So for the sake of the environment, please help stop immigration.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
