t no longer accounts for today's reality that massive numbers of immigrants can and do game the system. It needs revision.

It needs revision, but I don't think massive numbers of immigrants are gaming the system. Most are coming here and taking their best shot for a better life. I don't call that gaming the system. To me, someone claiming asylum who presents his best case and is turned down is not gaming the system. To me a hypothetical of gaming the system would be to claim being a part of a group in your area that are being imprisoned and killed, and you've never been a part of that group, don't have any real credible fear, but it's impossible to tell you weren't part of that group.

One thing I did note was that the new criteria in the defunct bill allowed us to turn away someone if there was violence in their country, but they could move to a non-violent part of their country and came here instead.

I don't think someone taking a shot at a better life is "gaming the system". I do grant some do probably game the system though.
