You are not taking free medical care in to account, nor public school costs, nor housing and food stamps. Now way that all costs 9K.
FAIR data sounds like it comes from 1992...
and then there is the human cost. Soaring rates of theft, violent robberies, rapes, and murders. Just ask the NYPD has their lives have improved after BLM, defunding, and mass illegal migration in to the Gotham.
Please become grounded in reality and stop virtue signalling or pretending the problem does not exist; otherwise, we will lose the war.
Until we drop DEI and woke fear of being called racists, we will never address the true dangers among us.

I do encourage you to read this yourself. But I’ll give one example. This is part of a response submitted by an elderly woman from Sheffield. A war widow named Elsie. Sadly she’ll have passed on now, but her words and feelings remain.Guest wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 9:34 amRecent events in the news regarding conscription and the debate about it got me thinking and I started to reread what I consider to be one of the most important books on my bookshelf. Nicholas Pringle’s ‘The Unknown Warriors’.Guest wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2024 3:59 amToo bad there isn't any. Not even war with China would you unite us. The Latinos are a 5th column already. Don't believe me? Go on Telegram and read it for yourself.
In 2005, Pringle wrote to local papers across Britain and appealed to WW2 veterans, as well as people that lived through the war as civilians, to share their thoughts on modern Britain.
He receives hundreds of replies. And honestly, you’d be hard pressed to find a more sobering and upsetting book. The overall consensus is:
• A feeling of regret at having even bothered to fight at all
• A deep worry about what kind of country their grandchildren will inherit
• Despair at the collapse of morals and community
• Feeling like strangers in their own towns and cities
• Fear of going out at night
This was 2005.
What would they think now?
A must read. Buy this book.
Dear Mr Pringle,
Thank goodness someone wants to find out what people think of Britain today. I am a widow of Harry Formess, Royal Engineer killed in Burma. I hope you can read my writing. I’m partially blind now. My town is like foreign country to me. My feeling is that men that offered their lives have been betrayed and the dead gave their lives in vain. Most of the older people, me too, say thank goodness we are at the end of our lives. It is no longer the Britain that was fought for.

John,John wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2024 10:24 pm** 02-Feb-2024 World View: China's attack
Navigator, Trevor, and I and others
have expressed viewa of different
scenarios of how China will
initially launch its attack. These
include attacks on Taiwan, Korea,
and Japan, as well as attacks on the
United States with nuclear weapons
and/or troops crossing the Bering
Strait or crossing the Pacific in
thousands of militarized fishing
boats.
But I see the initial attack
differently. I believe that China's
initial attacks will be huge and
crippling, and will be launched internal
to the United States. These attacks
will be massive, coordinated, and affect
every aspect of American life.
So, the word of the day today is
- China will launch dozens of
simultaneous terrorist attacks on
American targets, conducted by Chinese
terrorist groups formed from the (tens
of) thousands of military-age Chinese
men without IDs pouring across the
Southern border and released into cities
across America with no vetting except to
come to a court date ten years from
now.- They may also be joined by
military-age men without ID pouring
across the Southern border from those of
the 140 countries who are China's
allies.- Simultaneously, there will be
massive Chinee cyberattacks on American
electrical grids, power stations, water
stations, ports, bridges, buses, transit
systems, and other infrastructure
targets. FBI Director Christopher Wray
warned about this in testimony in
Congress on Wednesday, saying that the
hackers aim to "wreak havoc" on the
entire country.- Simultaneously, China will have its
army of Chinese terrorist groups (see
above) specifically target strategically
important individuals, from a list
culled from China's huge database of
hundreds of millions of Americans that
they've been building for years by
hacking government and commercial
databases around the world.
(http://www.generationaldynamics.com/pg/ ... tm#e181221)
The database contains name, SS num,
phone, location, and other personal
information for each person.- Simultaneously, China's military
will take control of all Huawei routers
on networks across America and around
the world. As I wrote years ago, I have
the skills to use encryption to hide a
"backdoor" in the code of a Huawei
router, so that no one could find the
backdoor without knowing the value of a
1,024-bit private key. If I have the
skills, then lots of people in China's
military also do. So we can be certain
China's military can control or disable
every Huawei (or ZTE) router in the
world, and shut off the vital networks
they're connected to.- Simultaneously, China's military
will control or disable all Huawei/ZTE
phones and other electronic
devices.- Simultaneously, China's military
will take control of all devices that
have installed TikTok.- Simultaneously, China's military
will launch dozens of ballistic and
hypersonic missiles, with nuclear and
EMS warheads, targeting American cities
and military bases.
"multi-tiered," the word that the
administration is using to describe the
planned military response to Iran.
So, my expectation is that when the
Chinese Communists decide to strike, it
will be a multi-tiered attack.
I agree with you on 95%. I do not think the Chinese will nuke American city targets for fear of mass retaliation.
For those that do not remember our previous discussions about this, my feeling is that the threat of mutual mass destruction will keep current leaders from nuclear Armageddon (taking out each other's population), but they will probably still go after military targets (ships at sea, strategic bases with low civilian population, like Guam).
Again, glad to hear that you are doing better.
Re: Generational Dynamics World View News
Because as bad as an idea as DEI is (versus hiring/promotion for competence/accomplishment), it has not yet come anywhere close to turning the USA into Russia or China, both of which are actual dictatorships with zero personal liberty.Lara RH wrote: ↑Sat Feb 03, 2024 7:47 amPlease tell me why I should fight the Russians and Chinese again?

I still enjoy oodles of personal liberty and am safe, happy and relatively secure. None of this would be true in either place, and if the Russian/Chinese win in the future, a USA occupied and/or controlled by either of these places would be immeasurably worse than either of those two place are now.
The USA continues to be the beacon of hope for the world, even if the beacon is dimmed compared to days gone by.
Re: Generational Dynamics World View News
One big issue China has: the more elaborate the attack they have in mind, the more that can go wrong. "No plan survives first contact with the enemy", after all. I'm sure they've got something big in mind, but people make mistakes, they miscalculate, they miss crucial communications, the enemy responds in a way they didn't anticipate, and so on.
When it comes to nuclear weapons, I expect it'll be one of the smaller powers that use them first, such as Pakistan or North Korea. Whoever's losing the war would find them a much more tempting option than a nation that's making advances, even slow ones. China's biggest miscalculation is their assumption their enemies are weak and will just capitulate after the first blow rather than fight.
Dictators tend to do brutal things to whoever gives them bad news, and I doubt Xi's subordinates will be willing to tell him that a certain course of action is impossible with their current capabilities. Prior to the Iraqi invasion, Saddam's cronies told him they could repel a U.S. invasion when they knew damn well that wasn't the case.
In our current circumstances, some things remind me of the buildup to the Second World War, others remind me of the runup to World War I.
To answer Navigator's question about why Russia hasn't gone into full wartime mobilization, cerca 1942, the biggest reason is likely politics. Putin's crushed most of the active anti-war opposition, but there are still plenty who feel that way. Given speaking out may lead to falling out of a 12th story window, most aren't going to be willing to actively push against it so long as it doesn't impact them too badly. Long as the middle and upper classes see it as not worth the risk, they won't do much, so long as they don't personally have to fight.
As for recruitment, they're able to sustain their losses, since you've got plenty of Russians in miserable poverty that see the hiring bonuses as sufficient incentive despite the risk, around 150,000 prisoners that have taken the offer of a pardon, and conscripts who see no way out of their predicament. Terrible as their manpower losses sound, it is nevertheless sustainable. A total mobilization where millions are drafted would change this dynamic and lead people with much less to lose rising up.

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News
The true number of Russian losses is secret, perhaps even unknown to the shambolic Russian army. Russia has, at best, 7-8 million military age males. Of that number, many are drug addled, have AIDS, are alcoholic, and mentally unbalanced, not that that would keep them out of the Russian army. A huge number of Wagner PMC prisoners are HIV positive. Drug use and alcohol abuse are rampant on the front line. Russia is a country with more grandparents than teenagers; more abortions than live births! The ethnic minorities that make up a huge percentage of Russian dead have meant ethnic unrest across the country. The working class is being decimated. Who will work in Russia's factories, farms, and maintain the already poor infrastructure? Are they going to bring in poorly skilled North Koreans?Trevor wrote: ↑Sat Feb 03, 2024 11:04 pmAs for recruitment, they're able to sustain their losses, since you've got plenty of Russians in miserable poverty that see the hiring bonuses as sufficient incentive despite the risk, around 150,000 prisoners that have taken the offer of a pardon, and conscripts who see no way out of their predicament.

The Russian army is still handing out substandard body armor, much of it useless.
Medical care in Russian army is terrible. Many Russian soldiers have endured entirely unnecessary amputations because of poor medical treatment.
Russia is throwing tons of substandard munitions at the Ukrainians, but it has sacrificed its economy to do that much.
I have serious doubts about Russia being able to sustain any of this. Ukraine has been devastated, but so has Russia. And worse, Russia is now an isolated pariah nation. Putin is gambling that Western oil demand will bring acceptance of Ukrainian losses and normalization. I don't see that happening.
And a bullet between Putin's eyes is the quickiest way out of all of this. And the people around Putin know this. Everyone knows this.

The cost of a plane ticket to Mexico City is only $346, less than it costs us to house one of them for one solitary day.
So if an illegal comes here at age 20, and lives to 70 (a reasonable estimate), ON AVERAGE they will cost the USA (including a 2% per year inflation on the current outlay) $760,000 apiece. Note that some do find work and integrate fully into society, but this is already part of the averaging and the total NET cost of illegals, as those that don't cost far more than $9k per year.
But then liberals think that the government can just create additional money at will, ad infinitum. This is literally insane.

The math is correct. And again, it describes the AVERAGE illegal.
