"It's not our job to take in people from across the globe who happen to live in bad countries."

What exactly IS your job on this planet?

Do you know what famous person said the essentially the same thing?

Do you not know what happened to him?

Let me refresh you.

Cain said "Am I my brother's keeper?" to God in Genesis 4:9 after murdering his brother, Abel. Driven by jealousy because God accepted Abel's offering but not his, Cain killed his brother, lied to God about it, and was subsequently cursed to be a wandering fugitive

Enjoy your wanderings.

To help my family, community, culture succeed.

Everyone in the world wants their family and community to "succeed".

You claim you are from China. Is that the culture you wish to succeed?

What exactly is your "culture"? Does your culture know how to "Cowboy"? Does it include Xenophobia? Does it include the ability of those in your community to freely worship, to express themselves without fear of government retribution, and to chart their own economic destiny? And what your the definition of "success" and how does it pertain to America and the American Dream? Do you even understand the American Dream? (Hint: It includes immigrants.)

"The American Dream historically and currently includes immigrants, serving as a core tenet of U.S. culture that promises prosperity through hard work regardless of birthplace. Immigrants are often considered a primary force driving this ideal, showing high levels of optimism and upward mobility, even when native-born citizens are less optimistic.

"The United States is considered a nation built by immigrants, who have played a critical role in its historical, economic, and cultural development. Immigrants have supplied essential labor for nation-building projects, including transportation networks, railroads, and factories, while contributing to industrial and agricultural growth."
