“I am adamantly against illegal immigration.” Hillary in 2003. She will probably say she’s “evolved”, but that’s something you do when you’re young. Few believe everything they did at 20. She cares about votes, only.

Japan is the world’s largest creditor nation with over $3 trillion in net external assets. The US is the world’s largest debtor nation with over $7 trillion in net external liabilities.

Japan isn’t bringing all these poor, low skilled people in and they don’t reward illegals at all. In fact, they arrest them and put them in jail. They also have a much smarter trade strategy than we do. They are also financially in much better shape and perform better in terms of trade.

Japan has not had the problems regarding immigration and trade that have led to Brexit and Trump’s rise because they decided to remain a homogeneous society and not open up to immigration from every corner of the world and they have pursued a much smarter trade strategy than the US and Britain. We won World War 2, but it looks like Japan has won the peace.

“We are sewn with the seeds of our destruction.”

Hillary cares about votes, period. That’s why she panders to Black Lives Matter, an organization founded on a criminal who robbed and assaulted a storekeeper and then tried to take a cop’s gun, as even the Justice Dept. completely cleared the cop. This weekend in California, for the third time in three months, “protestors” attacked a group of people who had a legal permit to assemble, as repugnant as their message is or not. Like the Trump supporters attacked a month ago, the authorities are allowing these attacks and people are getting hurt. Is this the future of the country? Not surprising though. Instead of standing up for free speech, many on the left wanted the maker of that dumb movie about Mohammed prosecuted because the film supposedly caused riots. Way to knuckle under to a 15 century theology.

The press is also in full spin on the Brexit vote. If the EU had stuck to a policy of free trade among nations of roughly equal standards of living and a common currency, that was a good idea. Instead it became a nanny state run from Brussels and forcing nations like Britain to transfer wealth to other nations that refused to manage their economies well.

And there are the usual media charges of racism against immigrants. Except most of the immigrants, coming because of the EU’s policy of free movement across borders, are from Eastern Europe, mainly Poland. But there are not enough jobs for both them and the native Brits. The press is also making much ado about an online “petition” of 3 million calling for another vote, as if it’s proof of something. Many of the votes are already shown to be fraud, many are from outside the UK, and who knows what percentage are simply the remain crowd wanting another bite at the apple. But hey, there’s a media line to be spread and that’s all there is to it.
