This story of a country falling apart is used whenever the opposite candidate is in power. It's also lazy to blame issues on migration and if you look at data and analyse the situation it's way more complex but I know the right cannot stand and deal with complexity.

@Gloomy i am of the right. where do you live? i am living amongst it. I KNOW FIRST HAND WHAT IS HAPPENING> i live in a city that no longer speaks ENGLISH. As I watch the migrants lining up, all i can think of is where are they going??? And guess who is letting them in? A democrat.

@akindheart just asking....why do you care....I honestly never understood why it bothers people so much....

@originnone do you know where i live? i live in one of the biggest illegal dumping pots in the US. THAT is why i care. we are paying for their healthcare, for their housing and education. they are in our ER's and not paying their bills. THAT is why i care

@akindheart No...that's not what I'm asking. I'm just wondering why the language things bothers you...I wasn't clear....

@akindheart
Being from Europe we pay for refugees healthcare and housing and try our best to make them part of our place on earth. Would it be better to fix the reasons for (illegal) migration? Sure but as long as there are people in need it is our duty as rich and even imperialist nations to provide aid.
illegal dumping
careful with the dehumanizing language.Being from Europe we pay for refugees healthcare and housing and try our best to make them part of our place on earth.

@Gloomy dehumanizing? i have had this go around with you before. My son lives in Europe and let me tell you what his pacificist attitude is? The Serbians were escorted out by gunpoint. not allowed to stop. so i am glad you are accepting of these illegals. you can have a few thousand over here

@SW-User We have a national language.

@SW-User No 😂 but you could make the case that indigenous languages are the native ones. It's certainly not english

@SW-User I get your point....but a nation can declare its national language....They all do...no matter who owned the land 500 years ago or how it was taken away....

@originnone I understand…
Where I work, there are people from 30 different nations and 26 languages spoken. English is used the most. However, I hear conversations all day in varying dialects of Spanish, Arabic, Urdu, French, Chinese and Korean.
It’s amazing…
