Not so much Germans. But they set up a law in 1924 restricting immigration of Southern/Eastern Europeans and also outright banning East and South Asians.Poseidon wrote:
You know, Italians. Jews, Irish, Germans...they were all considered "non-white" back when Ellis Island was strong.
Just food for thought.
The law was aimed at further restricting the Southern and Eastern Europeans who were immigrating in large numbers starting in the 1890s, as well as prohibiting the immigration of East Asians and Asian Indians.
America was quite a fucked up place when it came to race (and I'm talking on a government level) until recently.Over the succeeding four decades, Celler made the repeal of the Act into a personal crusade. Some of the law's strongest supporters were influenced by Madison Grant and his 1916 book, The Passing of the Great Race. Grant was a eugenicist and an advocate of the racial hygiene theory. His data purported to show the superiority of the founding Northern European races

Isn't it somewhat dishonest to apply the outcome of a situation in one group of societies to a prediction of what the same situation would bring about in a society radically different from these?CameronPoe wrote:

Well you want to blame the white fore fathers in the 17th-19th century and current white politicians for bringing in and allowing so many minorities in the US. This so called issue would have happened much later.lowing wrote:

Okay lowing, you're going to need duck tape, bottled water, batteries, canned foods and lots of ammo in that bunker...only joking. But seriously what does white America think about the prospect of being an ethnic minority?

I was under the impression that over the last 30 or so years the welfare state has been being dismantled in the US. American welfare is a pale shadow of the 'new deal' era. If you want to blame the current problems on welfare, they you can only attribute it to the lack of it. Welfare payments today are lower than they've ever been since the big depression.lowing wrote:

Wrong. Whites make up the majority on welfare. "According to the statistics, whites form the largest racial group on welfare; half of all welfare recipients leave in the first two years; and teenagers form less than 8 percent of all welfare mothers."lowing wrote:

Now like it or not, minorites make up the majority of welfare claims and prison. This is pretty much a fact. Given this, I can make the assumption that even MORE of them will do MORE harm and less good to our society.

Sorry, per capita has everything to do with it, based on what I described above.oChaos.Haze wrote:
Per capita means nothing based off what you said. You merely stated that the majority of welfare recipients are minorities, which is wrong. Don't try to change your wording after the fact. Per capita has just as much to do with social prejudices, as it does with anything else. I for one, refuse to believe that a person's character is decided by the color of their skin. Evolve please...

This is fine with me as long as English remains somewhat dominant. I think we'll inevitably have a multilingual country by the end of all this, but English should remain one of our primary languages.Braddock wrote:
