Amazing. You don’t live in California, and know nothing of it. You talk about bigots, racists, and so on, but I’ll bet you a dime on the dollar you have never been to the California Central Valley and seen the screaming poverty from your so called paradise (never mind the poverty in locations in San Diego and Los Angeles). Ironic that you should mention France, with its burgeoning Islamic population. At least its only the craziest hispanics who want Atzlan here (most have just been so permeated in the leftism of their home countries that they don’t know any different, but are in general hard workers who were tempted to a land of milk and honey - one that they can’t afford to live in and one where there is often a decent chance their kids will end up in gangs as opposed to going to College…)
Unless you are in high tech, the State of California works very hard to make sure your business closes up, with its draconian energy regulations, making their situation worse. You hail from New England, which is about as homogeneous a culture as I have ever encountered, and have never encountered the insanity of a state government like California - although I’m sure your elites are looking on with interest!
My wife is Serbian, and she doesn’t like what the EU has done either. The EU stifles jobs with overweening regulations that choke out all but big businesses like weeds (big business being able to more than handle regs, and being tied in a kleptocratic tie to the governing masses, likes things that destroy their competition). In that way, it really is like California.
I have no problem with someone like the author coming to the US (although its interesting that he is from the ruling elite, and his mom at least worked for Tito) so I’m guessing he would do nothing but add a little more leftism to the toxic mix that is our elite. So I suppose, welcome aboard! The more the merrier!
