He referring to the US "immigraton" policy of slowly taking away Indian lands and forcing them onto reservations, an amusing analogy, as it would result in the US population being forced to live in some godforsaken hole in Montana or something and all becoming alcoholics while slowly dying out. Actually, I guess that isn't so amusing. I don't think it really works, though, as A)We understand property and B)The immigrants in this case don't seem to want all the land anyway, just jobs at US minimum wage, rather than the 12 cents an hour they can pull in Latin America.
