Wow, just think how wonderful living in the US would have been during the Great Depression if we had another two decades worth of the rest of the world's "alcoholics", "anarchists", "contract laborers", "criminals and convicts", "epileptics", "feebleminded persons", "idiots", "illiterates", "imbeciles", "insane persons", "paupers", "persons afflicted with contagious disease", "persons being mentally or physically defective", "persons with constitutional psychopathic inferiority", "political radicals", "polygamists", "prostitutes" and "vagrants".
Good thought. It would have been extremely destabilizing and who knows what affect this would have on the USA's effort in WW 2.
