The real enemies are pessimism and panic along with a healthy dose of denial which the US has in abundance at the moment. Self fulfilling prophecies often come true.


America is a bankrupt nation though, and the standard of living is falling.

The Baby Boomers is considered the greatest generation, not GEN X and GEN Y ....

There are a lot of factors, however, it should be obvious that when you are forced to share *your* resources with someone else, then you have less.

The poor have it the worst, because they are ones who have to directly compete for welfare programs with other newly arrived poor.

I presume it won't be a disaster for you and it certainly wont be for me.

There are at least 12,000,000 Syrian refugees. 8,000,000 still in the country and homeless, and 4,000,000 mostly in the adjoining countries.

Germany says they will take 800,000 and a land rush begins across the poor countries of eastern Europe.

This first group was only 12,000. Imagine that many people crossing the sea, landing in Greece, going through Serbia, Hungry, Austria, every month.

Now imagine ten times that every month for a year which would be a million reaching Germany.

Now imagine that a million people are now on the move to get a spot in Germany out of this. A million people trying to reach Germany before winter.

Now imagine the short days of winter, the early snows, as this mass of refugees flows through.

Besides refugees, there are a lot of just illegals looking for free money.

ISIS claims that 4,000 were their troops invading without guns.

The pictures of packed boats show sub Saharan Africans, none of them are refugees, they are economic illegals.

The word is out, Europe is open to the world.

Maybe five million people will head for Germany, Most will not be Syrians, refugees, and there is no place for them.

There is a need, the 12,000,000 in and around Syria deserve support. Most are too weak to make the over sea and land journey.

No word on refugee camps becoming uninhabited, the fighting continues, people are still losing their homes, or fleeing unsafe areas.

Refugee aid should be available on Syria's borders.

It is unreasonable to demand that those who have lost everything been blown up, wounded, should do more than reach the border.

It is just insane to tell people that Germany will take them, if they can cross Eastern Europe on foot in winter.

Put a couple of hospital ships off Lebanon, some cruise ships running families to Germany, and unload some freighters of food, medical supplies, field hospitals, and construction tools and materials.

Remove the old, infirm, women with children, families, and put the men to work.

These people are living in tents in the mud, winter is coming.

Take a million, there is still 11,000,000 in desperate need of aid now.

Why are do gooders in charge so dumb?

In my city arrived at least 800 refugees two weeks ago - mostly young women, teenagers and families.
A few of my classmates went to their accommodation. They told me that they were extremely happy when they brought them clothes and toys.
I wonder where the rumors about that all refugees are criminal come from. As far as I know the criminality against refugees is higher than the criminality of refugees.
In another town nearby they burnt down a refugee accommodation. Why are people doing that?

Why? Because their hate and bigotry exceeds their fear of the legal repercussions.
