Be open minded, I want to know how others feel about this...Think in terms of America's Economy and American "ideals" and morals at the time. obviously what happened to the Jews was wrong and terrible(in my opinion) but should the blame lie on America because of it's strict immigration laws?
I personally think that America was right to stay out. America could barely help itsself, much less protect people from other countries, dont get me wrong, what happened to the Jews was terrible, but you can't help everyone. If we let people in just because they want to be here, we are condemning ourselves to economic depression, too many mouths to feed and not enough means to fill them. In a perfect world, it would have been great to help them. Morally it was wrong but security wise, it was a good move. The fact of life is "you scratch my back i scratch yours" is off the radar, we saw that proof during Katrina, when we were in need of help, no one came to us. kts not right but its life...
