One concern I have is the large amount of illegal aliens. In my town of Houston they are everywhere I turn. Will they leave of their own accord when the economy tanks, or will they stay because as bad as it is here it is probably worse in their dusty homeland?

I predict that lots of American folks will want to do those low-skilled, poorly-paying jobs when they need to fill their tummy and have no other option. This creates a conflict, and our government has already picked sides on the issue: NOT OURS.

Also, Affirmative Action: When times get real tough the populace will have no more patience for quotas and racial set-asides. Would you be willing to allow a lesser-qualified person get the job you want, nay, NEED? Would you willingly allow your kids to starve due to the color of their skin? I wouldn't.

I bring up those two points because I see a simmering anger in the populace right now regarding these topics, and would assume it would get worse with our coming hard times.

There is a simmering anger in L.A. also. Less illegal aliens now in my NW corner of the county. They slunk back to Mexico or your city. There is a simmering hatred that we have an affirmative action president along with a simmering anger at what violent homosexuals are doing.

Along with that comes distrust of people in general. Engage when possible, do not engage when not possible. I was active duty. Violence will bubble up from the untrained. Tensions are high, so be aware.

Affirmative Action is OVER!

It was wildly successful. We now have a POTUS that is living proof that skin color trumps skill/ability every time.

J.J., Al and Louie are out of a job. Blacks have achieved compete equality. Everyone IS equal. No need for the government to stack the deck any longer.
