I think there is nothing wrong in confessing that our capacity is not infinite. just as we ultimately confessed with respect to our ability to play world policeman. We are a maturing country. We are no longer a frontier. This merely provides some kind of a limitation on our capacity as to how many new Americans or potentially new Americans we can let in each year. It imposes no limit on refugees. but if the refugees go over 50.000. we begin to reduce for the next year that 270.000 additional immigrants we are permitting in. It seems to me that is infinitely reasonable.
