Both parts of that are wrong. And all her speeches about the Enlightenment or whatever will accomplish nothing as long as the unenlightened are reinforced by endless tides of immigration.

Nor does a single alien flatten wages, banrupt social services, cram the prisons, flood the hospitals, etc. Numbers, numbers, numbers. There should be no apologies for discriminating case by case.
