In many countries, including America, there is already hysteria around the idea of having to share resources with people who are perceived as not belonging or deserving it, usually based around arbitrary criteria like color of skin or country of origin. For me, it's not a stretch to imagine Americans not wanting frozen pheezers to come and "steal" jobs or housing.

I can just imagine the anger around the resources spent to acclimate these people. Anybody from 100 years ago is going to require a lot of help to reintegrate, including vocational training, language classes and subsidized housing. We can't even agree on providing meals in school for starving children.
