Neither are the majority who, unlike you, are not fearful of a nation changing over time, much as it always has. If you wish not to evolve, have at it, but expect not to see your wishes come true.

Is washing windows a high skill job nowadays?

Here's a short recap of how the last two presidents have handled the issue.

Like Obama, George W. Bush Let Illegal Immigrants Stay and Work | Mother Jones
Bush and sons are Neo Cons, they are scum for the most part.

They will never vote for republicans or Conservative ideals the outcome of the 1986 amnesty was proof of this and the outcome is was lost the state of California.

This proves what their think and how they vote..They can not stay, we will not be reduced to a 3rd world slum to appease them.

What do we have to be ashamed about? We have done this in the last 235 years We're less than 300 years old. We are younger than nations that have been on this planet for thousands of years. We, nevertheless, in less than 300 years -- by the way, we're no different than any other human beings around the world. Our DNA is no different. We're not better just because we're born in America. There's nothing that sets us apart. How did this happen? How did the United States of America become the world's lone super power, the world's economic engine, the most prosperous opportunity for an advanced lifestyle that humanity has ever known? How did this happen?

Because Liberty Works, Free Men, Free Minds, Free Markets, A Safe and Predicable, A System that Protects Property Rights, A Government with Strict Limits on its Power, And a Well-Armed Citizenry to Preserve the Means of Keeping and in some cases Restoring Liberty from Tyranny has Produced Such Success, It Should Be Self-Evident.

All of which are based on and created by Western Civilization.




Yeah history has proven other wise..And to be honest we are risking to much for no real gain..We know what works and and don`t want that to change.

Why are fully minority nations not all ready for the most part not "better"? Answer that one.



Yeah that nihilistic mentality never builds anything of value, that is why we as Westerns Civilization have rejected it.
It depends on how you define "value". What's good to you may not be good to someone else.

There are soon good things about Western Civ, and some not so good things....probably is the case with all civilizations. The point is that dividing people up based on race, culture, ect is an exhausting and utterly pointless exercise...you just gotta let it ride, man...we are here for not that long....all civilization will fall eventually. It's not nihilism it's science (entropy)...all natural things, and by extension all man made constructs, eventually fall apart/break down.

They are not a majority, and they just of the heads in the sand or have to to awaken.

I am not the one saying cultures are interchangeable, that is you and your side, they are not interchangeable and some are better at some things then others.

But take that sense of leftist arrogance with you to the grave, where your ideology always leads.

Its time to completely eliminate any and all Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) handouts and protections..... all minority and women-owned business handouts and protections.... and any other giveaway to minority business owners. If minorities expect to be treated as equals, then its high time they no longer receive special consideration. If they're going to be the future of America, then its time to step up and act like the white-owned businesses they've long thought had an advantage in building this country into the economic powerhouse that it is.

Its time for immigrants and minorities to prove their value to this country.

It is is only because of illegal immigration that America is trending that way......however. And now, certain politicians and businesses want to grant the immunity.

Both the democratic and republican parties have been paying lip service to the legal people for decades saying "yadda yadda we'll do something about it" while never doing something because they are beholden to their political greed and bought off by those profit from it.

The fact is the democratic party cares more about power and getting a new voting block and certain elements of the democratic and republican party are bought off by those who profit from cheap labor. The fact is a illegal has more political clout at influencing politicians that you or I do. Then there are the special interests who take up their name in a ethnic title who cry you are racist if you question or demand different.

If someone wants to come here because they love the principles of the founding, and want to take a oath and participate at being a working productive citizen paying their fair share then I say welcome.

But if they only want to come here to make better wages than they could back home and expect welfare and send most money back home without paying into the system and wish they were back home instead while driving down wages and burdening those here legally then I say get the * out.

The only reason America is going to become a minority majority country is because white people didn't have more kids. Nobody passed a law banning white people from being the majority and no law prohibits you from moving to a country where you will be the minority.

The immigration act of 1965 is the reason why whites will become a minority. Why should whites submit to become a minority to appease non whites. 90% of the world is non white. Heaven forbid a few countries might have a white majority. Should I go to Mexico and guilt trip them because Mexico is only 10% white.
