    When asked to do a feature/benefit presentation showing that illegal aliens
    are a benefit to America, libs flee the scene. Illegal aliens are a terrible social
    and economic burden. Giving them legal status to work will be a huge blow
    to Black employment hopes.
    (those who support immigration "reform" are will to sacrifice our demographic
    future for campaign contributions and a handful of votes. The political hacks
    promoting such are in the same class as child molesters and animal abusers.)

    Your question is retarded. That's why 'libs' aren't answering it.

    Really? How so? It was a simple, albeit, hasty thread. Is Western society seeing benefits from 3rd world immigration?

    Perhaps consider the following summary of a major study:

    Yes, racism leads to less trust, along with media pounding negative stories which seem centered around people of color doing bad things (coming from a white talking head, no less), etc.

    You can see that most of the radicals here can't stand anyone, not even a white dude with a nice tan he got on the beach during the summer. It only takes one or two people to spread the seed of doubt and mistrust. But we have an entire congress and house calling Mexicans drug runners trying to put up a huge fence and fly drones around, etc. It's misdirection at it's finest. The same thing with these black violence against white people stories. It's not the act, it's the glorification of it by those who didn't trust anyway, making mountains out of mole hills. Then you have the 'war on terror' which apparently is only perpetrated by 'brown people' despite we just had a bombing carried out by a couple of white kids. To a lesser degree, you've got Chinese people (which translates to any Asian since most people who don't trust others can't even be bothered to learn the differences between them) associated with communism.

    The media's given all of these scared little pricks validity in their mind to be afraid and not trust their neighbor. The government has helped cement that fear.

    When we have progressed to the point where no one is still living that remembers when black people had to drink from separate fountains, when mankind has figured out that endless war is no more useful than urinating in your own mouth is, etc, there can be a 'real' study. As it stands, there's too much subconscious social engineering teach us to hate our neighbor.

    Anytime something goes bad? LOOK, THERE'S A PERSON WHO AIN'T WHITE, BOB! IT MUST BE HIS FAULT.

    Bring over someone familiar with traditions in something like government of that country and add them to the academic community.

    If there wasn't Welfare? Economic growth, prosperity, and innovation, as during the 1800s.

    As it stands? Some economic growth, a lot of welfare leachers.

    Get rid of the welfare and they become more productive members of society. Hell, maybe it's even just a cultural thing. Immigrants have been great for Toronto, even though we have a massive welfare state.

    "Diversity", the word, polled well with brain dead voters in focus group polling. That's about it. Of course, so did "large breasts".

    If "child sacrifice" polled well with the Democrat base, Democrat politicians would certainly be for child sacrifice at the next available full moon.

    All waves of immigrants have brought progress.

    Your use of the word "stampeding" shows you are not serious about the facts.

    - Hot women
    - Great food
    - Learning about different cultures

    Best thing about diversity though is that it pisses off white nationalists.

    This is demonstrably false. We've made the false equation of "all immigrants" to immigration production. As an example, most of our scientific and educational development came from two specific groups:

    German-Americans(30% of the Caucasian-Americans) as well as Asian-Americans(roughly 9% of the total population). Or basically, we can sum it up like this:

    Our "melting pot"(the one that succeeded) is a melting pot of fellow Europeans as well as the Asian communities. The others, whether they be Muslims or Spanish or African-American, have for the most part benefited from but haven't really devoted much to the American Continent.

    America is a English-European country, the fact that we've forgotten this(and have forgotten the immigrants who truly have changed America) is one of the main reasons the homeland's collapsed.

    How would you measure the progress brought by European immigrants to Hispanic immigrants to the US?

    Is this a competition? Should we pit Hispanic doctors against European mafia members?

    Cultural diversity has some benefits mostly related to food, music, art and literature. Its downsides is importing primitive practices that might be practiced in that culture. Female circumcision and Honor Killings being a couple of the more high profile idiocies of the developing world.

    Religious diversity, is fine here in the US because of how we are set up but frankly it isn't working very well in the rest of the world.

    Political diversity.......same as above although modern developed nations are mostly politically stable even if we don't like their politics.

    So long as every group in the country adheres to some basic societal norms there really isn't a downside and as someone who love food, especially forner foods, I would hate to loose out on all that deliciousness from around the world. Its when we allow the more savage practices to filter in unchecked that problems arise.

    I'm sorry, I must have missed all the female circumcisions and honor killings in the US.

    Hard to tell at this point. Ben Franklin talked about how bad the Germans in Pennsylvania were, and how they just weren't assimilating (pre-Rev war period). We will see their benefits in the future, just like we've seen the benefits of every previous wave of immigrants.

    Actually, making them legal will hurt their own employment hopes. Legal aliens have to be paid over the table, not under the table, and they have to pay SS/FICA and be paid minimum wage.
