Another slant on new Americans: but first let us not forget when our forefathers arrived here and after surviving the first winter with the help of the local native americans (got a little cocky) did try to kill the locals off by importing smallpox laden blankets from the homeland, and then made them a gift to King Phillip and all his buddies. Yup we were real nice people when we got off the boat.
Back to the thread: It is common knowledge that certain cultural/ethnic groups have different and sometimes disturbing habits. Persons from S'east Asia while taking everything they catch generally are very clean and do not trash the shoreline. I have personally entered living quarters that were only meant for four or five people in this country and found 27 S'east Asians living in that apartment and sleeping on nothing more than mats at night. The apartment was spotless.
Some peoples come here because it is a land of opportunity where they can get ahead with hard work, and other peoples come here because you can get ahead with little or no work. Go figure. Whose fault is that?
Te real reason all the new americans are here is because they supply the labor demand that producers of various goods need. Even if they are not qualified to help produce any of these goods once they enter this country they enter the labor market and quite unknowlingly they help deflate the manufacturing cost of goods down, because they are here standing in an imaginery line waiting to be trained to help manufacture whatever is needed to be made. They help keep the hourly rage rates down that manufacturers all over the country would have to pay if the pool of unemployed workers dried up completely, because if the pool of workers dried up then the worker would completely dictate the labor market and not the overpaid putz who wears the suit. So let them fish and let them join our fishing clubs and let them assimilate in "our"society. Just my two cents.
