I couldn't go on much past the 'birthing 8-10 babies' crap. Sure, that might happen but it is not the standard family on public assistance. He has an agenda of course, an agenda to try to stop immigration of whatever groups he finds distasteful. Here, maybe Muslims are less popular because they are so numerous. Out on the west coast it's Mexicans and Vietnamese, in Canada Pakistanis are not terribly popular, this is nothing new. In the past the Irish, Polish, Italians, Chinese, and others have all gone through phases of unpopularity.
The great society is fading out more because of globalization and the shift from industrial to service-based industries in North America and Western Europe. Plus throw in a few sociological ills such as substance abuse, family disintegration, entitlements, class inequality, etc.
People like Wooldridge have a tendency to simplify solutions to complex problems by simplifying the problem. Nobody can convince me that putting an end to immigration would cure what ails the US.
