Re: What is your level of optimism concerning the future of the United States of Amer

I voted a somewhat pessimistic view of America's future. I have some opinions as to why America is going in the wrong direction. One thing I've seen in my own state in california. Large areas of our state have been colonized by the third world. Mostly Mexico. People coming here with few skills and hungry children = relying heavily on social services. Huge cost to taxpayer. And we have to build schools to accomodate them and then teach them the language. All this costs big bucks especially when building schools to accomodate the increased enrollment and the schools have to be built to earthquake specs. I was born near the end of WW2 and growing up in the 50's, there were always a few immigrant students. Mostly European. They usually didn't speak english but they learned it in a few weeks. Total immersion. That's how it's done. How to teach english total immersion when everybody in the school is speaking spanish. So now you have to have separate education programs. Still, after all this, hispanics have a poor graduation rate.This is one of my opinions of why the country is going down the wrong path. Can't help the whole world. Take care of your own. And now politicians want to amnesty millions more? Crazy!! Not trying to be racist or demean anybody. I was married to an hispanic lady and also learned spanish fairly well myself. I said I joined this forum to figure things out, maybe share opinions. Anybody want to argue against what I say, then let's go.
