That is not an issue. America is a nation of immigrants. You
should visit the US some time and see how it works.

I figure it'll last 'til two things happen, kind of at opposite ends
of the spectrum.
1. More Americans pursue training in STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering and Math) so that the US has enough highly skilled
people to meet demand domestically.
2. More Americans become desperate enough to take low-paying jobs
that frequently are given to immigrants now - laborers, agriculture,
food service, child care, et cetera.
As long as the majority of Americans aren't poor enough to be desperate,
or smart enough to do the highly-skilled jobs, I don't see it changing.
And yes, I know you're a troll, but I'm answering anyway.

Forever, just like they always have. They get to like it or lump it, as always.

That wont ever happen.

Wont happen either, particularly with the worst jobs.
It didnt even happen with the military.

Even if both did happen, there would still be lots of immigration, because thats
the way america has always worked and that wont be changing any century soon.

I think it's safe to say that the american nations (Creek, Cherokee,
Navajo, Seminole, Sioux, etc...) tolerated it until it was too late.
Some damned krauts got rid of most of them.
"Nation of immigrants" an outmoded cliche. America used to consider
DDT as a miracle compound;
used radium on wrist watch numbers, etc, etc, etc.

How long will we tolerate the abuse of our language by whiners?

It was, unless you're a bird and intend to reproduce.

You forgot playing with liquid mercury, which was plenty cool. And casting
lead. And chemistry sets that allowed you to make gunpowder. And riding a
bicycle without a helmet and body armor.
