And yes I want to preserve what we have, we are worse off with ghettos of Third worlders who come here and refuse to speak the language.  

We were better off under the 1924 act because we could control immigration and they were able to assimilate into our culture.    Not just form theirs in a ghetto.

Gosh Lucy. Please don't get angry with me for continuing to respond. But so much of what you are saying here simply not factual.

Immigrants did form ghettos throughout the 19th century and they persisted into the late 20th century in Chicago, New York, Boston etc.
Many "refused to speak the language." Nativists did not want them even if they did want to assimilate because they were not "white."

Finally-- the "best of the world," coupled with your adulation of the 1924 Immigration Act, appears to revive and deploy racial and ethnic categories much in line with those of pre WWII America.  Correct?
