For what it's worth, their kids are also overwhelmingly on the left side of the political spectrum.
I imagine it's due to all that left wing indoctrination they encounter in the public school system and then college.
Anyway, I disagree with Mitt Romney's (and others) "staple a green card to their diploma" idea.
The people of the US were told in 1965 that the new immigration policies would "not change a thing". Boy, what a lie that was!
The change was and still is massive, and IMO, extremely destructive.
The US had/has a right to maintain it's traditional demographics.

The problem with threads like this one on hobby boards is that it ignores what is going on in the pay to play world.
We have had two awful Federal anti-hobbying bills passed and signed into law. Websites have been seized and many are being subjected now to monitoring for trafficking whether accurate or not. The AMP world is getting hit the hardest of all
Carry on until it finally hits home.

The more things change, the more they remain the same. Those pesky dissidents are the real reason for the push to eliminate the second amendment and disarm the population. The dictator wannabes are afraid that over one hundred million gun owners with almost four hundred million weapons could interfere with their plans if they ever got together.
No comment needed here. Anyone who is really interested can go to YouTube and see the results of uncontrolled immigration. Start with Malmo, Sweden. There are videos that go back several years. Also, in this country, you other old guys might remember the Cuban boat people. Thousands of Cubans willing to risk death to get away from that communist piece of shit. He let them go too, after he opened his prisons and filled many of the boats with criminals.
I wanted to get back to you on the other thread about "them Jews" but I didn't get the chance. This isn't a direct quote but Revelation 2::9 speaks of a group of people who say they are Jews but are not, being of the synagogue of Satan. They existed then and they exist now. And yes, they are practicing Satanists, pentagrams, black masses, the whole ball of wax. They hide among the Jews the way that terrorists hide in the civilian population.
I can remember thinking that someone was "old and out of touch" if they weren't a rocker and a stoner. What goes around comes around.

Well, if you notice the Sweden tax model, it is a relatively FLAT tax bracket between 20 and 30% for everyone and everything. The Bern does not tell you that country does not have a progressive tax system and he does not tell you that if you are poor or middle class, you will start paying high taxes like rich people.
Just confirmed. There is the Local tax every one pays in Sweden, and it's dependent on locality. 32% is the average. Then there's a National Tax, where people earning over the first threshold pay 20%, and those over the second threshold pays 25%. Those that earn under the first threshold do have to pay any National tax.
That is exactly right. The argument for VAT/Flat taxes is that they are equal across the board. The argument against VAT/FLAT tax is that people with less income have to spend a higher percentage of their earnings and end up paying a higher total percentage of their earnings in taxes.
I think it will always boil down to what the money is spent on. If we had a national health system similar to England's (who has a VAT), it will lower the cost to administer care as the government will negotiate in bulk with pharma companies and hospital systems, and there will be a dip in the cost associated with the chronically ill due to early care. However, dismantling this part of the insurance industry and overhauling how pharma works, and rationalizing the costs in hospitals that operate on relatively low margins, is a decade long process that exceeds any one presidency. That's before his education plan which is another large system to overhaul.

I am amazed that we have a free society with a government who should be regulating but they are not. Lobbyist will buy your politicians and they will expect kickbacks for that investment, those kickbacks are usually coming out of our pockets.
A lack of morals in our society is what ails us. We can change the system all we want, if the system is full of immoral people, it will fail whether it is socialist or capitalist society.
