Groovy man. Congratulations on all the moola you made. Interesting that you just now switched to the party of fiscal responsibility when your wallet was threatened. By the way, thirty years ago there was a war on, and a lot of my friends were fighting in it. I'm sure you volunteered on arrival, thankful to be in the land of self dtermination, right? I mean, to protect the notion of private property and self determination, of course.

My family came here from Ireland, Scotland and Germany over 250 years ago. 300 years ago in my Stockton line. Nobody came here to get rich; most were religious protestors, Baptist Bretheren and Huguenots. We were happy to not have people putting guns in our faces over our religion. It's why my family fought in the Revolution (the American one, not the Russian), the Civil War, the Mexican War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam....without any promise of riches, any hope of big rewards. I have to ask you: would you be here if you couldn't get rich? Would you fight if there was only a depression to come home to? Millions did. It's the reason the economy here is so great, at least right now. They created the conditions that you enjoy. But you seem to be...against us. How curious. Just wondering...What would you do if there were a draft? That's been reintroduced into the Congress. Would you stay? Would you put your sons into it? Who will fight to protect your property - white boys from the South? Or you and yours? What would you sacrifice?

My little war with LincolnDefender stems from my family's firm belief that you don't compromise with murderers. We think that many recent president's have done just that. But Reagan showed the US that standing up to filth was the right approach. The walls came crumbling down.

Right now, you're dollars mean something. But in the not too distant future, when ethnic Mexican's outnumber asians and whites in CA and TX, and maybe in AZ, UT and NM, what will the money mean? Will they vote to let you keep your $$, or will they discover that they can vote to take them away? The WASP's - we used to be called "Americans" - believed in self-reliance and thrift. Think that's gonna last? Think the system that let you get where you are is going to stick around when we're gone, and a foreign populace is the majority? That's the subject of the article this thread discusses. They're pointing out that the ideals that were "American" are being supplanted. I'd really love to know. Maybe you can enlighten me, 'cuz I'm just a dumb American guy who ain't as hip as Y'all. Now that you're here, and you see how the demographic war is going (the Mexicans are winning here), what sort of world do you think it will be?

Maybe you should buy gold.

First of all thirty years ago I could'nt have volunteered for anything as I was only 3 years old. Well, if they want to reintroduce the draft now, I should be too old for that too. You do bring about an interesting point about the demographic change and how it will affect the country. I don't know how America will change once the demographic tidal wave actually hits, which is around 2020 or so. We are only seeing the small waves now and already some people are getting wet.
