A must-see visual presentation showing how immigration to the United States has changed in volume and source over the last two centuries has been created by Max Galka, who describes himself as "fascinated by data" and maintains a website, Metrocosm.com, that presents visualizations of data. He writes that he teaches:

... data wrangling + data visualization at the University of Pennsylvania. And I write about data visualization as a Guardian and Huffington Post contributor. Previously, I worked for 10 years as a trader at Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse[.]

To see his visual summation of America's immigration, click here. Below is a still screen grab of one moment of his two centuries.

Interesting visual for 2 centuries of migration. No indication of migrants to other countries in this presentation. Just here. Why here? Because we suck, or so the libs tell us what with all the racism and oppression and so forth.

It’s illustrative that Mexico has been the #1 supplier of migrants since 1960

I believe most of the Polish immigrants who came to the US, like mine in the 1800s, were considered as coming from Germany, since Poland was occupied by Prussia/Germany during that period.

Probably correct. Mine came from Holland on my dad’s side in the late 16s or early 17s. My mom’s came from Wales later.

Partner, most freepers know that this is an Illegal Alien Invasion from that corrupt country of Mexico.

The Number one (1) reason that we need our Southern Border Wall right now.

Paul Ryno and Mitch McConJob will be fired from their leadership positions. Paul Ryno knows that his support is dwindling quickly. Paul Ryno is a close friend of Mitt Romney and he should know by now that Mitt Romney was one big Douche Bag when he ran for the POTUS representing the Pubbie party.

I voted for Mitt Romney & Paul Ryno when I voted and I closed my nose when I placed my vote for them.

Mitt Romney is directly responsible for that America Hating Mooselimb Obama to get four (4) more years as POTUS. He ran an awful race and should have easily beat that America Hating Mooselimb Obama.
