    “Thanks to each wave of new arrivals to this land of opportunity, we’re a nation forever young, forever bursting with energy and new ideas, and always on the cutting edge, always leading the world to the next frontier. This quality is vital to our future as a nation. If we ever closed the door to new Americans, our leadership in the world would soon be lost.”

    -fucking Ronald Reagan.

      I mean… It’s good for the fucking economy and national security. The whole, growing economy thing… I’ve never played a 4x game and thought… better stop producing food and encouraging population growth before I have too much production capabilities and the resources to trade for diplomatic power.
