I guess many have tried but not really managed to make it.

Another thing that might happen is that the whole mentality of the US changes over time, Immigrants from Southern countries simply don't have the typical Midwestern mentality and priorities etc.

I always love this line. Like we're actually trying to "help" these people by letting them form a semi-permanent underclass doing marginal work for us for marginal wages.

The sad fact of the matter is we're becoming as decadent as the europeans. We are watching our society beginning to unravel. As if that isn't enough we are experiencing an invasion, with the support of our leaders (our upper classes), and are now being told we need to make some accomodations for them, again, by our leaders (our upper classes) for the good of everyone (our upper classes). Pathetic.

You mean "culture." In point of fact they do have a culture.......their own.

It's my take.

Where did i claim that there was a nation where blacks live better than us? In fact, what in the hell does that have to do with this thread? We're talking about THIS country, and the shape it's in. And WHO has been leading it since it's inception.

Besides, i don't need to continue this conversation (with you). I'm done.

Can YOU say IDIOCY?
Yea, that stuff is idiocy.

So is running the nicest country on Earth (formerly) into financial ruin and leading it into unwinnable wars at the cost of trillions.

Thanks for raising me. BTW...there is NO sarcasm in the sentence above.

It's the fault of the whole nation that we're in the shape we're in. But if they wanna pass around blame, i'd down for that. I can pass it around with the best of them.
