WHAT LINE?

James Stacey Taylor writes about his immigrant success story in Reason— how he arrived in the U.S. with $97 in cash and ultimately earned a Ph.D. — but points out that the proverbial “line” that people say immigrants should wait in doesn’t actually exist. “There is an implication in the line metaphor that the current immigration system operates as it did at the time of Ellis Island,” but in reality, Taylor argues, “[t]here are vanishingly few paths to being legally able to live and work here.”
