The USA was created by merchants for merchants. Ever since we had a government of the merchants, by the merchants, for the merchants.

For me that explains the decisions made by the business,and government elite.

Wrong it's way less than 10% that have influence over major corporations in the U.S. That you think major corporations are owned like collectives, by the employees, show how distanced from reality you are.

There is no such thing as crony capitalism since the completely disembedded market is an unrealistic theoretical model, but you need education to know such basics and you ofc lack this.

Clowns like yourself can only simplify things down to your level.

@underbjorn I wish I was nearer 50, since I`m 60! In California, about 38% of the State is Hispanic, the vast majority of them are of Mexican descent. However, their are cities where the % is far higher. The demographics of my particular city is over 52% Hispanic, and we have many businesses that specialize in non English speaking Mexicans, supermarkets that carry many imported Mexican products like candies, cookies, cake treats, all kinds of Mex canned goods, Mexican soda pop, etc

Haha oh wow, you just blew the last pretension of the farce that you are anywhere near 50.

Btw I don't know which state you live in, but my guesses it's an old part of Spain anywhere which makes it highly ironic that the state "suddenly" is all Mexican.

[luvcheney1]

@underbjorn I guess the 11.5 million Mexican illegals came here because nobody here can call into Mexico and tell them how awful it is? Jeez! The whole State is practically all Mexican now. If you dont speak Spanish culero, you cant talk to half the people. I learned Spanish when I was young, because it gave me twice the pool of girls to sleep with. And, I like a woman who cooks, cleans, takes care of my baby, no daycare for my kid. I`m an exploiter. So is she. Its mutual...........

Bwahahahah, xD Hilarious story, clown.

Question is why I should care even if that fantasy was true, it doesn't affect my facts in any way.

But that's the hting, isn't it dumbfuck, facts from somebody who knows what he talks about is quite hard to counter, so you need Wikipedia and your unique moneycow wife fairy tale.

@underbjorn Gee Sven, my wife is a recent Mexican immigrant, who came to the US 10 yrs ago, no English, and set up a small business for less than $700, and within 3 yrs of arrival here netted $60K annually. Average household income here is $50K, and many have 2 incomes. All over this city, people speak Spanish everywhere, and many signs are in Spanish too. Pinche Pendejo!

Haha, this is indeed getting silly. You are mentally frozen in a retarded stage of underdevelopment.

You could think of all these Mexicans and Africans being hated in the west, somebody would tell them to stay home. They do it anyway because of the miniscule gain, doesn't make it any less deplorable.

The greedy capitalists are not the only ones who will or can, but again simple factual basis eludes the uneducated, simpleminded clowns.

[luvcheney1]

@underbjorn With a billion people, dont you think some would tell the others to stay home, its horrible? Or those who came would make a few bucks and go home? This is getting silly. Tens of millions of people come, to get better lives. Those evil company bosses give them the opportunity for better lives. NOBODY else has, or CAN do that. The greedy capitalists are the ONLY ones who will. For MONEY.

@luvcheney1 ---

I can't expect such an uneducated lowly simpleton as you to have any kind of basic perspective, but the same applies for external refugees.

Why don't they stay in their home countries? They don't know they will be hated, enslaved and discriminated against in the west.

They are duped or forced to leave, they already have it bad and want something better.

Instead they get exploitated by people who live in such an excess they could feed 1/6 of the global pop for a day.

The improvements come at the cost of psychological, social and economical security, hiding from authorities, being persecuted as illegal immigrants in the coastal cities.

.

Meanwhile, as they get paid maybe a miniscule fraction more per hour than in the countryside, the company bosses take out 300 billion bonuses, parachutes and half a billion luxury villas.

"why wouldnt they just fucking STAY"

Because they are encouraged, tricked and pressured to leave you dumb fuck.
