"Sound Thinking on Immigration from Brookings"
I'm posting this as an example of what might be possible if we could exclude politicians from the immigration issue...
Jason Richwine posts about it at blog.american.com:
"An important new immigration report was released yesterday, the product of a working group called the Brookings-Duke Immigration Policy Roundtable. The group, which consisted of scholars from across the political spectrum, was tasked with formulating a compromise plan that would address the problems of our immigration system. The group members acknowledged from the outset that they would fully satisfy no one, and at times they were not even sure they would be able to come to an agreement. But their perseverance paid off, as they produced a thoughtful, reasonable report that may actually get the debate moving."
