Collision of cultures, languages and politics poses perils

That's because you live in a white and black world.

I live in a diverse world. Been to over 50 countries, seen the world, I enjoy people, not just people with my skin color. You are just a vestige, unable to move forward.

You seem to be obsessed with skin color.

Been to 50 countries you say ?

Reminds me of the liberal who talks about all of the countries she has visited. But she has seen very little of her own country. Driving through a state on the interstate don't count.

Been all over the USA as well. I can fly free all over the world, and I have. I am a traveler, not a tourist. I see the places I go to on my own, from the ground, no obnoxious tour groups full of morons. Been to a few odd places, hoping to get to Myanmar in early 2015 and see it before it gets over run with tourists.
 
yup a society where US citizens get nothing. A citizen is not even allowed to buy $10 in Pain meds because he cant afford the $450 "prescription".

And Cubans get a house, healthcare, SNAP, green cards, (to under cut wages), as soon as they step in USA.

Then they look at all the Citizens begging on the street corners and wonder, when are these people going to organize and start killing/deporting us?



Cuban Wave Arrives by Land - Wall street Journal

An influx of illegal immigrants from Central America drew wide attention recently, but more than 22,000 Cubans entered the U.S. over land in the year that ended Sept. 30, twice as many as in the previous year. An additional 3,940 sought to reach the U.S. along maritime routes, nearly double the previous year and the highest number since 2008,

Cuban migrants to the U.S. enjoy special treatment. The Cold War-era Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966 allows those who touch U.S. soil to remain here rather than be deported. They are eligible for some benefits that are accorded to refugees fleeing persecution. After a year, they can apply for permanent residency or a green card.

Cubans are eligible for eight months of cash assistance, medical coverage, job-placement services and free English classes, among other benefits offered to refugees. For a family of three, eight months of cash assistance totals $4,300; for a single person, it is about $2,500. Cubans can also receive food stamps if they meet the income requirements.

Some say Cubans aren’t refugees in the traditional sense, though they have such rights. “The majority of Cubans are economic migrants

Yeah, let me know how that works out, when you end up paying outrageous prices for produce.

Trouble is, labor is only about 5% of the cost of produce.

Double labor rates, and prices only go up 5%.

$2 of tomatoes is now $2.10.

And you will note all the Americans that signed up for the pickers jobs, but then the pickers magically made all the applications like mine
disappear.
 
If they become citizens they too are Americans.

No they are not.

They dont act like it.

Phoenix is exactly like mexico.

Water stations, Spanish signs, CCC's and all.

90% of the time I hear Spanish. And this is the so called USA.

Boo hoo. Free market...advertise to your audience. Learn the language, talk to people who aren't as white as you, might learn something...
 
How long is this "Balkanization of America" supposed to take? Are we there yet?

I ask because Charles Krauthammer's article (in OP link) is from 1990. That's a whole generation ago.

If an American does not like diversity, they should move to a less diverse populated country.

A melting pot where you become American.............They don't.

But they are not citizens, that is why they are sitting here illegally, and trying to be legal.

YYou want a example of stupid? Drinking water stations make sense in Mexico. public water down there is not the safe.

But in USA? Really? With perfectly safe USA drinking water, the MEXICANS here (like Phoenix) still waste money on going to drinking water stations.

Well luck you. No way I can get a EU citizenship, and work in EU.
 
Boo hoo. Free market...advertise to your audience. Learn the language, talk to people who aren't as white as you, might learn something...

They do not dictate the language I speak in my own stinking country.

Sorry, race and NATIONALITY are not the same ISSUES.
 
A melting pot where you become American.............They don't.
You didnt answer my question. What exactly is American culture? Isnt a bunch of cultures thrown into one and combined? Where just about every culture (within reason) is accepted?


But they are not citizens, that is why they are sitting here illegally, and trying to be legal.
Uhh all the examples I have given is where they are citizens. If they become a legal citizen of the USA they are American citizens.

YYou want a example of stupid? Drinking water stations make sense in Mexico. public water down there is not the safe.
So again. More about old man hatred of people that look different?

But in USA? Really? With perfectly safe USA drinking water, the MEXICANS here (like Phoenix) still waste money on going to drinking water stations.
Soo more bigotry. At least your showing your true colors.

Holy refried beans, I can't even qualify to immigrate to Mexico. It seems I'm to white.

Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society:
– Foreigners are admitted into Mexico “according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress.” (Article 32)
– Immigration officials must “ensure” that “immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance” and for their dependents. (Article 34)
Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets “the equilibrium of the national demographics,” when foreigners are deemed detrimental to “economic or national interests,” when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and when “they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy.” (Article 37)
– The Secretary of Governance may “suspend or prohibit the admission of foreigners when he determines it to be in the national interest.” (Article 38) "<

Characteristics of Americans/American Culture

.
Americans are extremely independent, individualistic, and like
to be different from each other.

Americans need a lot of “elbow room”; they like personal
space around them.

. Americans follow the rule of law.

Littering (throwing garbage on the street), graffiti and tagging
(writing on the walls), and loitering (standing around and
doing nothing) are against the law and are punishable by a
fine or jail.

The American culture is the gun. All good Americans own at least one gun.

Americans don’t push or stand too close to anyone in line.
They always wait their turn.

When the service is good at a restaurant, tipping is expected to be 15–20% of
the bill.

Polite Americans eat with one hand while the other one is
under the table on their laps.

When you meet Americans, be sure to look them in the eye,
smile, and shake hands.

At an American funeral, it is not normal to make loud sad
sounds. Americans try to keep strong emotions inside.

If you are invited to an American party, do not bring your
children, friends, or family members without first asking the
permission of the host.

Americans love their pets, sometimes more than they love
people.

If the police put the lights on to tell you to stop your car,
move to the side of the road right away. Stay in your car.
Keep both hands in full view of the officer.

Never, for any reason, argue with or give money to a police
officer. America isn't Mexico.

Never go to a hospital emergency room unless it is a matter of
life or death.

Americans are really careful about not bothering anyone else
with their body odor or bad breath.

Most Americans take at least one bath or shower each day.

Most Americans put on a good underarm deodorant after
bathing.

Throw all toilet paper in the toilet to be
flushed away.

What does this have to do with legal citizens of the USA who came from Mexico? Is more of your fearful bigotry of people showing again?
