[QUOTE="Lil, post: 667875, member: 17309"] My guess is most people don't really know the numbers. I knew there were a lot, but I wasn't aware of the numbers you are giving. Realistically, we're a huge country...we could take a million with little difficulty...but can you imagine the popular opinion of that? But I'm thinking of a situation like they're facing in Europe...people flooding in all at once, very little vetting process because there's no time. Heck, people were up in arms about the children from Latin American countries in 2014, though you don't hear anything about them now. But when it was happening it was all over the news and a lot of people were upset at the number...worried about the social services that would be expended...who was going to take care of them, and those were [I]children[/I]! Adults would be worse. [/QUOTE]
