The US white majority will soon disappear forever

[Legion]

You're going to elect avowed socialists because of your mistaken belief that Norway is socialist.

I doubt that even the Creeper actually believes the Scandinavian countries have socialist governments. He's lying.

The deficit when Obama left office was $665.4B. Today, the deficit is $984B.

Once federal budgetary funding is appropriated, committed and obligated, especially funding for mandatory spending for "safety nets" and "entitlements" like Social Security, Medicare and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, it cannot be easily rolled back. All Congress can do is legislate changes to eligibility to reduce spending, or end the program entirely.

Funds allocated for mandatory spending have to be disbursed, transferred, or returned to the Treasury. Mandatory spending is not part of the annual Congressional budgetary process and makes up over 2/3 of federal spending at present.

Commitments made by the government cannot be canceled without defaulting. When spending exceeds income in any fiscal year, the result is a rising deficit. The federal government has to borrow money to fund its deficit spending.

Programs that were funded on multi-year authorization from Congress can and do carry on through several fiscal years.

During Obama's Reign of Error, mandatory spending increased, partly due to "stimulus spending" and partly because of slow GDP growth and associated unemployment. Because fewer people were working and business profits declined, federal revenues decreased, causing a deficit bubble and increased borrowing to fund the commitments made through mandatory spending programs.

That debt has to be paid down while spending is decreased where possible before the deficit will exhibit a retrograde effect.

In today's news

Since the settlement of Jamestown in 1607 and the start of the Colonial period, the U.S. has been predominantly white.

But the white share of the U.S. population has been dropping, from a little under 90% in 1950 to 60% in 2018. It will likely drop below 50% in another 25 years.

White nationalists want America to be white again. But this will never happen. America is on its way to becoming predominantly nonwhite.

So what?

So what?

While I see some irony here I’ll give you credit for asking the question Jarod. But he doesn’t answer the question because he’s a one trick pony.

Oh yea....countries throw out their political elite in favor of another just for shits and giggles. That's not what happened in Venezuela prior to Hugo Chavez.

Venezuela's government was a Capitalist Kleptocracy (much like the ones that abound in Africa) where the political class was stealing the vast majority of the revenue generated from the Petroleum industry and investing abroad in Swiss Bank Accounts and not in public institutions, infrastructure, education, government services or any sort of economic development. They just stole the wealth of the nation and left their citizens to starve when the economy collapsed when oil prices dropped.

What happened in Venezuela was that a Capitalist Kleptocracy was replaced with a Socialist Kleptocracy. Is anyone really suprized that both failed?

Capitalist kleptocracy?

Whether it loses a majority or not is immaterial, unless you are a fucking coward who thinks his skin defines who he is.

Most here wouldn't. I live about half a mile from a local Mosque (in fact it's my voting precinct). If it wasn't for the women in head scarves you'd think it was just another Church.

It is only in the last few years that I've seen women walking around in burqahs and niqabs. It never used to happen and what's worse is seeing little girls dressed that way albeit without the face being covered. That, to.my mind, amounts to indoctrination and a form of child cruelty. Naturally the BBC, always so desperate to be right on, defends the loathsome oppressive garments.

And then we will be like Africa and South America. YAAAAY!

I should point out, again, that a less white America will be a more Christian America. Here's hoping that Goony gets what he wishes for.

Why are the numbers of white people declining, and why are nonwhite numbers increasing? The answer is basic demography: births, deaths and immigration.

White women have an average of 1.7 children over their lifetimes, while Latina women average 2.2. The total fertility rates of blacks, Asians and American Indians are in between. So whites have fewer births than all nonwhite groups.

There are also big differences in age structure. Sixty-two percent of Latinas 15 years of age or older are of childbearing age. Only 42% of white women fall into this group. Latinos also have lower mortality rates than whites. Demographers call this the “epidemiological paradox.”

you could interpret this by white people being too responsible to bring mouths into the world they cant feed.

btw if you truly think global warming and climate change is an existensial crisis then you should be against population increases.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Medicare doesn't work here?

Social Security doesn't work here?

SCHIP doesn't work here?

Strange that it does, despite you saying it won't.

Medicare and SS are not socialist ideas; because workers pay into them, the entire time they are working.

Capitalist kleptocracy?

Most governments throughout history have been Kleptocracies. That is taxes were not coerced from the citizenry for investment in national defense, public services like schools and hospitals or infrastructure but were taken (i.e. stolen) by the ruling political class for their own personal benefit.

Point being not all Democracies/Republics around the world have the strong public institutions that we here in the US have. The political classes in those nations are essentially thieves and mobsters in suits.

So the pattern that we have witnessed in Venezuela has repeated it self scores of times in the African Petrochemical States like Nigeria and Ghana. Vast sums of money are produced from petroleum (or another single product like cotton) which are appropriated (stolen) by the political class (whether it be Capitalist or Socialist) and invested abroad under their personal accounts in Swiss Banks instead of at home where it could be used for public services and infrastructure, etc,.

End results is you see these swings from Capitialism to Socialism and back to Capitalism with the same net result. A handful of the political class Kleptocrats steals the wealth of the nation and invest in abroad.

This is why it is so important for a modern nation State to have extremely strong public Institutions.

Having said that....you're still better off living in a completely corrupt Capitalist or Socialist Kleptocracy than you would be if, god forbid, you were stuck in a Libertarian paradise as lack of strong public institutions is another reason why Libertarians have never, ever been able to create a functional government.

That's something I presonally don't give a shit about. It's the same as eating fish during Lent to me. Just another outmoded ancient superstition to be ignored.

Naaa I'll leave you to pay for that or to do the work yourself.

I take it you tried to find something to back up your claim and were unable to do so. Let me know if, at some point, you find something (or find enough of a sense of honor to admit your error). Thanks.

I give a shit, because it radicalises a new generation. You told me that by the second generation the children become integrated but I can tell you that clearly isn't the case with many sadly. The Danes have the right idea, you should do the same in the US and likewise here with new immigrants.

No, I got lazy and decided it was simple enough to verify that even you could do it.

Look, if you don't believe what I'm saying then just disregard the geek speak and look at a nearby Mexican. It become pretty obvious.

It certainly indicates a lack of intent to assimilate. That happens here a lot to with first generation immigrants and some are militant about preserving their childrens cultural heritage of their homelands but inevitably they fail about as soon as their kids start public schools. Public Schools, at least here n the US, are the great assimilators.

We have a lot of Ethiopian Muslims here in Cbus and the first generation women about half wear the Hijab in public and about half wear western dress. Their kids rarely ever wear the Hijab. I will say this about Ethiopian women....they are quite attractive. Most the ones I've met have slim, willowy figures with very attractive facial features.

Most Ethiopians are Christians, I wonder how the Muslims came to the US? There are many Somalian, Yemenis and Sudanese here, they tend to integrate, it's the Deobandi Pakistanis that send their children to madrassas and wear the penguin suits.

My bad...I meant Somalians.
