Go read the other thread. Throwing dough at Alcoholic Chinese Hookers will piss you off too.

This country is f@cked! Trump re-election and strong markets or not..

Too many saboteurs in the Swamp.

Why are you even humoring them at this point?

No minds will be changed. People will still be set in their ways. As you see in this thread, people would rather you and others like you not be in this country regardless of what contributions you make because you are not white.

Slow your roll Libhat. my only two post in this thread(with no mention of numbers)..I love the Indians I know, be it medical, tech, engineering, store owner, restaurant owner,etc..great people

But, as usual, Libs love to slander in speaking with absolutes..which leave no room for response.

I think most here have a problem with DC beaurocrats throwing around big rounded quotas..since they tend to generally botch such issues.

The left wants immigrants for votes. The right wants immigrants for their CEO buddies for cheap labor.

Neither side gives a shite about us citizens.

Congress is corrupt and has no independent thought. Just do what they are told by the lobbyists that give the highest bribes.

frick off, H-1B’s have plagued the telecom industry because they can hire people who can do basic coding for dirt cheap and force American workers to train them before firing them.

The when it’s actually time to critically think, they can’t, customers get pissed off, company rehires American. Cycle continues.

For every one good Indian programmer, there are ten who fricking suck.

What if Europeans don't want to come? As I've said before, any reform to the immigration system has to include reforming the welfare state, as it relies on a larger and larger population base funding the social services. That fact is the reason for immigration to Europe, for example.

1. It's very possible. No doubt

2. I see that being talked about (the need for more and more people) , but it doesn't make sense to me. Destroy one's own country permanently, to expand a tax base? There are obviously other ways around this problem. Perhaps instead of spending obscene amounts of money on immigrants who travel to Europe, they could subsidize native childbirth the same way they have college education. It wouldn't take me very long to come up with way to resolve the issue of expanding a native population in a way that doesn't permanently destroy the nature of a country.

3. It seems likely to me that there are political and ideological reasons for solving the fertility problem in the way they are trying to do it right now. Otherwise, there would actually be discussions about how to solve the problem that don't include importing some of the worst quality people in the world.

Dude. I've been an American citizen from birth and I get told by yuckle fricks on this board to go back to "my country" and fix it. There are some real fricking winners on this board. Just ignore them.

have no problem with anyone coming here, regardless of where they come from, but the system has to be streamlined. The nativism angle interests me much less than the ability of America to make productive Americans out of anyone. That probably puts me in the minority here.


I accept that there are good faith arguments on this side. Years ago I was more sympathetic to this viewpoint than I am now.

The bottom line for me is that the flood of immigration will not stop. Nobody has the political power to stop it. No matter what my opinion on the matter happens to be, it's probably more important to be prepared for what is coming.

A lot of people that are currently not worried about immigration from non Western countries will quickly find themselves very worried about it when they realize they've lost political and economic power to those immigrants. This will be an even more pressing issue when they realize that non western people aren't as likely to reject "identity politics", and will cooperate in their own interests in a way that most White people will not.

I'd love to take credit but I'm sure I heard it somewhere. Have at it. I'd love for its use to spread.

Unfortunately.
