I understand that; what happened in my area was a lot of “legal” Europeans WENT BACK. Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Portugal, Italy - places that sound horrible today economically - were still more attractive to those people than the US.

It gives you an idea as to where we are economically, what the future holds for us, and what places still have economic potential (watch where the Europeans go).

Europe has a negative birth-rate and is slowly dying into obscurity. Europe does have a fantastic welfare and retirement plan that is sucking the place dry. The people that I know who returned to Ireland have now returned back to the U.S. There is no future in Europe that I can see.

I went into a supermarket several months ago. It was in an area that seven to ten years ago was in a "boom" market. In that last 2-3 years, the decline of the area has become more obvious. Homes in a once prospering and growing suburb are not for sale anymore, they are simply abandoned.

The strip mall nearby has become blighted, with closed shops and businesses.

The grocery market is still there, and I was in the area and needed something. The first sight that greeted me was two women in hi-jabs arguing with a store clerk at the service desk about a refund they wanted but had been refused.

It went downhill from there. Imagine a stew of 3rd world dystopia, illegals from our "friends" south of the border, and thuggery. Children were running at full sprint down the aisles.

After finding what I needed, I purchased it and quickly left.

I remember walking into a grocery market once when I was in Ireland. I held that mental image to the one my mind had just been subjected to.
