Yea, but the USofA is supposed to be the land of the Free, all kinds of free, not just "you were not born here"-type free. The whole "give me your sick, your poor..." etc vibe.

It's a little ironic at the very least that it's so hard to get into the United States, given its history.

I think the times of unclaimed land up for grabs are long over, and people need to get used to a steady state environment that the rest of the world has been in for millenia.

There has never been a steady state. The "unclaimed land" you speak of was actually claimed by native Americans, who have now been eliminated.
