I am a paleo-conservative.
I don’t understand this neo-conservative need to force other people to live by American values.
American values are for Americans, because this is our culture and heritage.
Many people have absolutely no desire to be politically and economically free. Many Americans on the left have no desire to be politically and economically free.
And many immigrants come to the United States and go right onto becoming dependent on the welfare stare and have no respect for the rule of law.
It is hard enough for conservatives to keep the United States politically and economically free, so I don’t see how expending billions of dollars on foreigners who hate us will do us any good.
Ya mean multiple trillions...
Excellent point.
Of course while our own border has become an epic violent war zone, as many millions flood in unabated, compromising and undermining every American system in existence, I guess were supposed to continue business as usual, until our national treasure is reduced to that of Uganda, while being in debt to the Red Chinese for the next 20 generations.
