Get a grip people. Ben Wattenberg is right. Demographics and geography IS destiny. This country has been counted out before. In the end the debt will be liquidated one way or the other. We have a generation woefully ignorant of history. You people seem to think the history of this country was all upward mobility and everybody getting richer. You forget the utter destruction of the south after the CW. You forget the destruction of the middle class during the depression. And you forget that this country was counted out during Carter when the Japanese where kicking our butts economically and the Soviets were taking over half the world AND scaring the crap out of the other half. This gloom and doom mantra is getting old. BUCK THE HELL UP !!

“Ben Wattenberg is right. Demographics and geography IS destiny.”

Do you really, really, think these newcomers are going to grow up and vote “conservative”?

Growth through immigration is only good if they assimilate or reinforce the existing culture, instead of creating balkanization.
