Sounds like we need to implement busing to Asia. That’ll fix their industrious culture!Facts are facts.That's Spanish influence, not their culture. Those people are Indians with some spanish mix. The Indians have never embraced European culture, and they never will. The architecture is a result of spanish exploitation. It's the same thing where I go to. The indians have never embraced the spanish influence there either. You have convinced yourself its a European culture. Nothing can be further from the truth. It's a European overthrow, not a culture. You don't seem to understand the difference between the two.Look at the architecture!El Salvador Photos - Featured Images of El Salvador, Central America - Tripadvisor If that is European culture, I'm a pink giraffe.They’re mostly a result of European culture as we are. What is this environment thing you allege?Tell us again through example, how there culture was screwed up. I mean, if they were around 400 years ago, and we barely were at that time, how did they survive all that time without us? And, on top of that, they didn't contaminate their environment like we are doing today. And they had a screwed up culture? Yea right.We owe the refugees nothingBullshit. They come here to make more money and send it home where it is worth more.Why do you think they come here as refugees? Because of what we did to them. Why does that matter? Because, they are not in any financial position to go through all the red tape to get here legally, because they are running for their lives. We caused that scenario, not them. And even when they arrive as refugees, they lock up their kids. And another thing, it's not just my shit. I don't see you out there picking up a GD thing. So don't push your bs on me.They do have the option of coming here legally and picking your shit.And thank you and the dictators for supporting the overthrow of their governments, resources, and livelihoods. It serves us well. We go into Central and South America, takeover, and they come here as illegals and refugees. Well I'll be, imagine that. Who could have ever guessed? But ha, do yourself a favor and STFU up. You know why? Because those folks are 25 to 40% of the farm work in this country, and they feed your sorry ass, because you aren't going to pick shit.You know full well that President Trump DID NOT call the virus a hoax. You also know full well that President Trump ordered a TRAVEL BAN on Chinese Nationals entering the country. You selectively ignore those facts as you are instructed by your Democrat masters. That is proof that you are a mind controlled Trump hater.As U.S. tops global tally of coronavirus cases, Trump is at odds with reality We have now surpassed China for Coronavirus cases and our population is lower. Go figure. Just proves how well their leadership has tackled this virus with their mandatory quarantines and preparedness. The lack of interest in this pandemic by Trump has taken its toll with loss of life, coupled with all the lies that lead the people in the wrong direction with their preparedness. He told his base it was a hoax for Gods sake, and they said it doesn't exist. Add that with the failure to not declare the defense production act, 9/11 and Pearl Harbor are going to look like a scratch in comparison, if Trump doesn't act, or gets the hell out of the way. Having bidding wars with companies to make masks is insane for example. They are bidding over making money, while people die. To hell with that failure. The defense production act has to happen yesterday. Trump with this ultimate failure of his, has done enough damage already. Can you believe it, he wants everybody to get together to go find the easter bunny, a few Sundays from now because it will be beautiful. In the mean time, people are dropping like flies, because we either are in short supply, or have no masks, gloves, or ventilators. But ha, let's all walk out of church together on easter Sunday and have an easter egg hunt. What a sick, selfish. monster he is.

States fight for supplies in absence of federal coordination
Rachel Maddow looks at how the lack of federal leadership on seeing to the medical equipment needs of the states has states competing against each other and even other countries, driving up prices.www.msnbc.com
Yes, he did, at a rally. It's on YouTube, you can google it. He didn't order a travel ban. He ordered a "partial travel ban" for some travellers from Wuhan.
Trump's latest travel ban highlights gaps in containment net
A day-by-day review of the spread of an unfamiliar virus from its earliest days shows U.S. officials have often been slow to respind.www.cnbc.com
Canada had its first case of covid19 on the same day as the USA. We didn't ban anyone from entering Canada, but we aggressively tested anyone coming from a hot spot. You hit 100,000 cases today, and we hit 4000. Guess that travel ban didn't work nearly as well as HAVING A FUCKING TEST FOR PEOPLE ARRIVING FROM OVERSEAS.
A tale of two countries. One with a real smart guy as their leader, and the other one has Donald Trump, under whose leadership, the USA has become the epicenter of the world pandemic.
Just like you lead the world into the financial crisis in 2008, in 2020, your leading the world in disease. So much for the greatest health care system in the world. One of these days, you idiot are going to wake up and realize that the Republican Party has pulled off the greatest con in the history of the world on the American people.
Until them, your country is in the toilet and the waters are swirling.
We have open borders in America, thanks to the Stalinist democrats. Anyone infected with anything is welcome to waltz right in, no screening, we don't even know who they are or where they're from.
Thanks democrats.
My maid is currently and temporarily back in El Salvador.
My Chicago Uber driver admitted that he sends his Uber money back because it more than doubles in value.
they have had a screwed up culture at least since the spanish arrived and they are still the same in many ways as they were 400 years ago
My maid enjoys her time in El Salvador.
...yes.... but that makes our point... assuming I understand what the prior posters are saying.
Yes, there is a sub-culture in south America, that rejects western-based Spanish culture, and has remained dedicated to their old culture.
Have you read up on this at all? Because I have.
That's the reason they are poor and impoverished. When you go look at the people in South America who are rich... they have a western cultures.
When you see the people who are utterly impoverished, they have the counter-culture.
And this has nothing to do with race. It has to do with culture. There indian-descent people in Brazil right now, who are hard worker, tough ethics, and entrepreneurial, who are wealthy. I would assume... that the same is true throughout all of South America.
They rejected their old culture, and embraced a new culture, and are wealthy because of it.
Again, same is true in the US.
There is a counter-culture in the US, and the people who adhere to it, are poor. The people who embrace the protestant work ethic, and are entrepreneurial, end up rich.
Again, has nothing to do with race. Has everything to do with culture. And people flip from one to the other.
Phil Robertson is a perfect example. The dude was a poor drunk guy, working at a bar.
He started whittling duck callers, and end up with a multi-million dollar company, and a TV show, and so on.
Culture matters a ton, in how successful you are as a individual, and how successful the nation is as a whole. Culture is the defining factor between any peoples. Not race, or color, or anything else.
There is always a twisted rationale for Eurocentric colonialism.
You can make whatever excuse you want, but doesn't change the facts. It's not like you can even attempt a counter argument.
By all means try, but just look at the empirical evidence, proves my point.
By the way, as American culture has changed, other cultures that are better, have risen even above typical American culture.
For example, Asian culture.
Asians teach their kids to work hard from the very start. I was just talking with a chick, who is Japanese. She has a masters degree, and she's working on her Ph.D, and she has a 6-figure income already at her job, and she's working on the weekends as a volunteer.
Similarly, I had a guy that I rented a room to, who was from Bangladesh. One of the hardest working guys I have ever met. He would get up at 7 AM, be at work by 8 AM, work until 6 PM, work out at a gym until 7 PM, by 8 PM he was working at his computer, on stuff from work, until 12 AM, and then repeat. On Saturday, he would work on stuff from work most of the day. Only on Sunday did he really relax and watch TV or something.
Well naturally, a company tracked this guy down, offered him one full month vacation a year, with a starting salary of $120K, and paid for moving expenses.
This is why Asians earn more than average white Americans.
But doesn't have to do with the magic that they are Asian... it's the culture. White people who have Asian like culture, do just as well.
If you read up on the culture of CEOs, it's the same. They work constantly. That's why they make big money, because they are working nonstop.
Culture is everything. And there are bad cultures, and good cultures. That's reality.
No, I don't think that would help so much.
The solution is to go back to a fundamental work ethic. Which equally involves an end to moral relativism, and that work itself is of itself, a moral good.
And last, we need to teach that gaining without working for it, is equally shameful and even immoral.
A sharecropping economy is how we got here. Fvck that. The money changers knowingly withheld what was coming from the public in order to warn the predatory donor class so the substantial people could get their insider trading and raping of the 401K working and underclasses wrapped up. Then they rewarded themselves with yet another massive socialist bailout. And who do you see getting preferentially tested? Who will have first access to our rationed hellthcare?
Fuck working for this system. Fear, oppression, subjugation and economic/hellthcare coercion is all the power structure has left. Submit your humanity to capital. Your fweedumb lies in utter subservience to capital.
Did you say such a thing, when Cliven Bundy was fighting the Federal Government, which has no constitutional authority to own the land?
