One of the little known facts about earlier waves of immigration is approximately 40% of the immigrants went back to their former home lands once they found out the streets weren't paved with gold.
Of course, we have now paved the streets with gold, and they just stay.
I have often wondered why history is no longer taught in schools, and i can come up with only one word demo rats.
