” you go to Japan, they don’t have problems with certain folks being discriminated against because mostly everybody is Japanese,” Obama said.”
I knew a gal who is ethnic Korean from Japan.
Obama doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
But, he doesn’t care.
If I am not mistaken the descendants of the Korean comfort women are still denied Japanese citizenship despite having been in Japan for generations.
But Obama would never mention inconvenient facts that do not support his point that the US is a racist nation outside the international mainstream.
No, he doesn’t, but Greenfield is wrong about Japan, too. Foreigners can and do move here, but they don’t make it easy and they don’t tolerate illegals. You are not only expected, you are required to stay solvent, stay gainfullly and respectably employed, and most importantly, stay out of trouble.
However the biggest and easily most understandable reason why so few people try to immigrate is that there are no welfare freebies to be had. There are some, for Japanese, and even some that a foreign resident of good standing can qualify for, but the application procedures are strict, as is oversight, and fraud is severely punished.
