[Nowhere Man]

America was still America and much more livable in 1970, our population was just fine, we were headed to becoming a more advance, larger Switzerland.

The last 100 million people destroyed us as a nation, and turned us into a grubby bus stop of overcrowded cities and big government as our communities were destroyed, and we became a dog eat dog place of concrete and greed and short term gains and big city politics devoured states.

You got that right, we let in too many people who do not understand our way of life and refuse to assimilate as well. It's OK to hold on to your heritage and so on but overall immigrants who came here in the past did learn the American way of life and lived it. It's not that way anymore and I think the 1965 law that opened the flood gates (thanks LBJ and Ted Kennedy) really did us in.

True, but the 1965 Immigration Act was JFK’s baby, not LBJ.

JFK was obsessed with replacing us with foreigners that would support his party and it’s agenda, his efforts that consumed so much of his life in the 1950s and 60s, and that he wrote a book promoting, became the Act that passed after his death, and in his name.
