So which country should we model after ?
Everything in time has a sweet spot. There are more millionaires now in USA than ever before. Sweet spot for family structure is gone. Both parents have to work.

Which country? I don’t know. But time they are changing.

So let those migrants work and dream up about getting a house in the 'burbs and so one day they too can have a bunch of time to vent about nothing.

Nice! I like that soft and happy liberalness.

Things won’t be all that bad when communism happens. Communism is like a cup of hot cocoa!

Communism is over rated.

Massachusetts is one of thr Blue states where migrants are being sent. The shelter system reached capacity this week. A military base and Motels across the state are filled with migrants. The situation got so bad the Governor declared a state of emergency. The Natl Guard has been called in to keep order at the motels. Now the Convention Center in Boston may be used to shelter more migrants. The Governor has asked Mass residents with spare rooms in their homes to house migrants.

We have a super market chain here called Market Basket. Each store has at least 10 registers. All of a sudden every cashier seems to be from Central America. Same at Walmart. There is no friendliness from these cashiers, as they obviously speak little English.

The changeover from US workers to migrants in certain jobs in Mass is underway. I'm seeing one after the other retail job, customer service Jobs, restaurant workers seem to be primarily from central America. Basically its what happened in South Florida some years ago. A change over from Americans born in the US population to a majority Spanish immigrant speaking population. It's all coming to Massachusetts, and obviously it was intentionally allowed to happen. Question is What is the actual reason it's being allowed to happen? My view the reason is not honorable. It is another crooked tactic by the US Govt to benefit Politicians.

The same exact things have already unfolded in NYC. 99.9% of people act like this stuff isn’t happening or that it is no biggie. Or they get angry if you even mention all the illegals swarming around every street in the city.

Yes New York and Mass seem to be the 2 states that knowingly allowed this crap to happen. People do the same damn thing here, act like it's a taboo subject to talk about. Walk around like nothing at all is happening. The whole issue is pathetic.

There should be ideological screenings for people moving to common sense and freedom states like Florida or New Hampshire.

Heck, there should be ideological screenings for EVERYTHING in this country. Want to buy a cheeseburger? Screening. Want to order some groceries? First you need to pass this ideological screening.

Basically do the reverse of the crud they pulled during Covid when we needed to show proof of vaccination just to be inside a Starbucks.
