Should the US remain a "Nation

             This issue is clearly polemical, because of the fact that our country was based off
             immigration, but some take it for granted. Even myself until up recent, found
             myself favoring a balance of immigration, because I wouldn't be here if that
             wasn't true. Now a new semblance for my country has changed my mind,
             because of recent attacks of terrorism attacked upon it. To me, it has shown that
             we should now control all immigration far better than we have before. Some say
             that immigration is good, and we should keep it the same, because it supports our

             time that we act now, because within a few short years the damage will have
             been done. The endless tide of immigration will have filled our country with a
             foreign and unsympathetic element." This basically states that if you do not
             control immigration, then over time we will loose our patriotism and love for the
             country, because of a domination of immigrants. I chose this issue, because not
             that it was one of the last ones on the paper, but that it is important issue that our
             country faces everyday. Immigration is important to this country, but it needs to
             be more restricted and thought through. I believe that our "nation of
             immigrants" should be restricted by certain countries or numbers, but not to...
