IMHO... there is some true to this comment. Having read "The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire"... I've come to the conclusion that America is such a wealthy abundant nation that so-called 'poor' have gotten lazy due to government handout. Why should they work when the government will pay you to stay home and have babies? Nor does the government require males to be responsible and care for their own. In fact the government promotes the breakup of families which leads to irresponsible citizens.
We need those illegals to pick oranges and lettuce and keep our lawns looking good. Thanks to socialists like FDR and LBJ we need to have an underclass of citizens to perform those tasks no one else will do.
I predict it will get even worse. The Japs can make a Toyota Avalon with excellent quality at $26 per labor hour. While General Motors must pay $130 per labor hour due to communist/socialist 'labor unions' that holds labor hostage for "retirement benefits, pay packages, health care benefits and social security payments." American manufacturing has to cut somewhere to be competitive. If GM made a vehicle with the same quality as Toyota base price would be $80,000.
What does this mean? A continued "open door" policy.
"we need to have an underclass of citizens to perform those tasks no one else will do."
That's socialist BS!
Also, they're not citizens, they are ILLEGAL ALIENS!
