smart t asked:
Thier only other experience was in Latin American countries, So in effect they are saying that policies on race, humanity, civil rights and so forth are more evolved in thier home countries, such as Mexico, Peru, El Salvador etc, are they out of thier minds
I really think thier is a massive brainwashing going on her with uneducated people by pro-illegal anti-American activists such as La Raza
anyone agree or disagree
why am I getting thumbs down
I agree with you
if thats what they think they should move back if they like it there so much.
if america ***** so much — why are they immigrating here in the first place?
if things are so bad in their homeland, i wish they would try to do something to improve it.
If they had to support all of those illegals streaming across the borders they would changes their minds.
The presidents of these countries are off the hook if their subjects are going to America to make money. Of course they are going to be pro-illegal immigration to America. Takes the heat off of them.
As an American once married to a man born in another country, I say this: all are welcome here, but don’t expect a job, health care, education for your children, or Social Security unless you get here the legal way. Most ancestors of American citizens followed the immigration rules of their time. Why change now?
American is progressive and not ******. Maybe ‘racist’ against dictatorships. That’s about it. These people are stupid.
Well think about it… Mexico doesn’t let Illegals from US to go to their country and live, yet their people hop on to ours and we let them stay without much discipline.
So if they don’t like it, just go back to where they came from. This is a different country with different rules.
I think they should go home if we hurt their feelings!
Did you notice who has been elected in Venezuela, Bolivia, and Peru? Leftists. The people know what they want, and and have been promised it in their home countries. Unfortunately, their governments haven’t been able to fulfill their wishes. In contrast, the US lawmakers don’t even promise reform, let alone deliver.
The reason ‘they’ say we are less progressive is because they don’t hear it here. The don’t see it back home, either, but at least they hear it.
Funny thing, i was sitting in my sociology class today looking at the social equality statistics by country.
The top of the scale is the massively liberal countries with well regulated welfare states, mostly scandinavia and germanic countries as well as the ridiculously organised Japanese. You then had ex communist states that didn’t devolve into a mess of all the worst side effects of capitalism such as hungary or the czech replublic as well as the old powers who’ve learnt how to get a decent bit of social security going on (basically Europe).
Then you have the third world who are rife with all sorts of corruption and the such. Though somewhere in the middle of the third world countries (well, top half maybe) you get the USA and its forward thinking policies on race, humanity, civil rights and so forth.
I could care less as long as they are saying that on the way back to their own countries!!
Anyone seems welcome here nowadays! While I/my family fights for any/everything that we can get!
My friend, I don’t know what do you call “policies on race, humanity, etc”, but I garantee you that racism in Latin America is MUCH lower compared to the USA. It has nothing to do with the wealthy or poverty of the countries. In Peru, that you mentioned, an Asian was ellected president in 1995, a Native American was ellected president in 2001, and a white was ellected president in 2006. Neighborhoods in Latin America have nothing to do with race.
And, honestly, your question makes no sense because one should fight for your rights everywhere.
