Few people know the origins of political, economic, and societal dégringolade that is decimating today’s America. Not that all bad that is happening to our country these days can be ascribed to a single event, but among major causes that sent our country into a nosedive, the 1965 Amendments to Immigration and Naturalization Act, also known as 1965 INA, stick out conspicuously.
The 1965 INA established the basic structure of today’s immigration law. According to its advocates, it was intended “only” to end discrimination. What it did actually accomplish was a de facto establishment of sweeping anti-discrimination, that is, discrimination against the majority of Americans, in the pre-1965 sense of this word, by all those, within the U.S. and outside, who were allegedly the subjects of discrimination in America before the 1965 INA was enacted into the law.
But that does not end the list of the “accomplishments” of the 1965 INA that – among other detrimental effects – includes the following.
It resulted is an unstoppable influx of more than 1 million foreign nationals a year, most of whom are from Third-World countries, refuse to assimilate, and remain profoundly loyal to their ethnies of origin.
It abolished the national origins quota system that was in place before 1965, which abolishment resulted in a flood of Mexican immigrants, know for their exorbitant fertility, who slowly but steadily do to our country what they and their ancestors did to theirs.
It allowed chain immigration of underachievers and over-breeders (euphemistically referred to as “low skilled immigrants”) by awarding higher preference to the relatives of those already in America than to prospective immigrants with sought-after skills, talents, and entrepreneurial abilities. The preference system for issuing immigration visas included such groups as spouses and children of permanent resident aliens, brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens (how many Americans in 1965 had brothers and sisters who were not U.S. citizens?), unskilled workers in occupations for which there is insufficient labor supply, refugees, and others “not entitled to preceding preferences”.
If that doesn’t sound bad enough for you then here is a list of some major disastrous effects that would not have taken place if the 1965 Immigration and Naturalization Act got defeated in the U.S. Legislature.
We would have no overpopulation explosion that is mostly due to the steady increase of the population of the poor or nearly poor, both domestic and imported. Virtually all U.S. population growth in the last four decades was due to post-1973 immigration and higher-than-average fertility of post-1973 immigrants (legal and otherwise).
Our once plentiful natural resources would not be depleted. We would have enough clean water, places to live comfortable lives, unspoiled wild lands to enjoy great outdoors, never mind basic commodities (oil being on of which) that are lately in a short supply.
Our once well-functioning infrastructure would not be overwhelmed by the quickly multiplying aliens that benefited from the 1965 INA and its fallouts. Our public schools would not be overcrowded with the needy Spanish-speaking kids. Our highways would not turn into huge parking lots. Our emergency rooms would not turn into free health care centers for millions of non-paying illegal aliens, financed by the Americans in need of an emergency care who usually end up paying the non-paying patients’ medical bills.
American political structures would not shift to the left, as the growing population of the poor kept voting the Lefto-Liberal demagogues (mostly Democrats) to the positions of power. Creatures like Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Harry Reid (never mind the disastrous Democratic super-majority in California legislature) would have virtually no chances of being elected to the legislatures, never mind becoming the main players there, if it weren’t for the 1965 INA and the “demographic shift” that it caused.
In particular, our national border and the immigration law would not be disrespected as millions of ethnically-bound immigrants infiltrated the enforcement agencies and their governing bodies, thus forming beachheads for further invasion and helping their compatriots to safely jump the border and entrench themselves in our country. Any amnesty for illegal aliens would be dead on arrival in any of the two Houses of the U.S. Congress, and any member that would advocate such an amnesty would be sure to lose his next re-election bid.
Our individual liberties would not be eroding as they do these days. Our 2nd Amendment rights would not be infringed upon as they are in order to “protect” us from armed-to-teeth foreign criminals and terrorists organized. Our 4th Amendment right would not be trashed as they are in order to incapacitate those neo-Americans who resort to terror and violence in order to spread their culture, religion, and law. We would not have to go through metal detectors while entering a government office or boarding a plane if the 1965 INA was not pushed down our throats.
Our once strong national coherence and integrity would not be lost. The curses of multiculturalism and diversity would not ruin the fabric of our society. Mexican drug cartels would not rule bloodily in our cities and burbs. And Hispanic lawmakers would not threaten us with future retributions if we do not welcome millions of self-invited “guests” from Mexico and other Latin-American nations in order to make their conquest of America even faster.
CONCLUSIONS
The architects of the 1965 INA, which circle included late Rep. Emanuel Celler and late Sen. Philip Hart (it appears that late Sen. Ted Kennedy was just a “useful idiot” for these architects), must have known damn well what the effects of it would be. It was their master plan to bombard America with flood of unassimilating aliens from dysfunctional and overpopulated nations in order to initiate fission of this robust nucleus of free-market capitalism. Sen. Kennedy’s now infamous declaration in front of the U.S. Congress in 1965
“What the bill will not do: First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same. […] Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset. […] Contrary to the charges in some quarters, S. 500 will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area […].”
was but a flimsy cover-up, but this kind of unproven nonsense was easy to invoke after years of propaganda by the education, media, and Hollywood circles that were inherently friendly to the plan. And, to these architects and their descendants’credit, they have been executing that plan faithfully ever since. Sadly, they now have the establishment of both parties on their side.
Nothing will save America before we dig to the roots of this treachery and expose all the arch-manipulators who opened the floodgates in 1965 and sabotage nation’s efforts to closing them back.
