In 1996, less then 9% of total migrants to the US were from first world nations

So almost one in 10. That's a lot of people, not a sign that people from first world countries aren't coming to this country. And it would be higher * absent immigration restrictions.

(* As an absolute amount, maybe not as a percentage of total legal immigration, since more people would come in from poor countries as well)
