Hate to burst your bubble but many Irish came here to avoid starving to death. Around 70% of this country can trace their heritage (some part) back to Ireland. The Irish were viewed as less valuable than a slave. These are well documented facts and the Irish seem to be doing OK for themselves.


I'd guess MOST immigrants neither were poor or well educated back in the day.

Most were like the Irish.

I would argue that most immigrants were probably more intelligent than their peers and had the means and confidence to realize they would do better somewhere else unless of course they were a fugitive.
