America is not an economy. America is not a market.

America is a nation.

You wanna come here? Obey our laws.

[RKV]

On top of our laws, we have some values, too. Learn, understand and support our constitution and our system of government. The way things were done in whatever country you came from may not be the way we do things here. It may be OK in Mexico for the government to license firearms - it isn't here. It may be OK in Canada to restrict freedom of speech - it isn't here. We don't allow government employees to take bribes and don't tolerate those who attempt to bribe them. Etc.
