With the news of a massive influx of immigrants on the southern border, a new Gallup Poll shows that only 22% of Americans favor increased immigration.
Only 14% of Republicans, 23% of independents, and 27% of Democrats favor increased immigration.
The poll actually revealed a strong desire among Americans to decrease immigration, as 41% of respondents thought immigration should be decreased. This included 50% of GOP voters, 43% of independents, and 32% of Democrats. The percentage of those preferring to decrease immigration has jumped from 35% in 2012 and 2013 to 41% in 2014.
There has been a slow but steady growth since 1999, when 10% of voters supported immigration, as opposed to 22% in 2014. One explanation offered is that some business leaders favor it so that highly skilled foreign nationals can emigrate to the U.S.
Much of this support for increased immigration comes from Americans with college degrees; from 2000 to 2104, adults with a postgraduate education strengthened their support from 17% to 30%.
Significantly, although 63% of Americans view immigration positively in 2014, that number has dropped 9 percentage points since 2013, when it stood at 72%.
 
yes... it is amazing to me that we have so many people looking for jobs and an all time high of people not participating in our labor force and yet the politicians are pushing this stuff for their cronies.
This is about jobs to americans of all colors vs votes and cheap labor for the cronies.

USS Indianapolis (CA-35) was a Portland class heavy cruiser of the United States Navy. She was named for the city of Indianapolis, Indiana.

She was flagship for Admiral Raymond Spruance while he commanded the Fifth Fleet in battles across the Central Pacific. Her sinking led to the greatest single loss of life at sea in the history of the U.S. Navy. On 30 July 1945, after delivering parts for the first atomic bomb to the United States air base at Tinian, the ship was torpedoed by the Imperial Japanese Navy submarine I-58, sinking in 12 minutes. Of 1,196 crewmen aboard, approximately 300 went down with the ship.

The remaining 900 faced exposure, dehydration, saltwater poisoning, and shark attacks while floating with few lifeboats and almost no food or water. The Navy learned of the sinking when survivors were spotted four days later by the crew of a PV-1 Ventura on routine patrol. Only 317 survived.[1]
 
Yeah I know it's fiction but there's some truth to it.

i just read that the writers of the scene were arguing about it, so shaw rewrote much of it himself.
and

and that he suggested to spielberg he get drunk to do the scene since the characters were supposed to be drinking.

Spielberg said he eventually passed out.
