The text's authors argue that immigration legislation in the 1920s "caused America to sacrifice something of its tradition of freedom and opportunity, as well as much of its color and variety." How do you react to this argument? Do you believe that immigration restrictions instituted were necessary, equitably developed and implemented with respect to the quota levels and exemptions from particular regions of the world, or do you share the critical view of the immigration policy of the 1920s asserted by the text's authors? Offer specific political, economic, and cultural arguments to support your view.
