The American dream is officially dead. Instead, now people want to go to Canada.
The United States is a nation of immigrants. Period. My grandmother came from Poland in 1946 after the Nazis killed her entire family. She married, worked hard all of her life, raised a family. She was never arrested once. My step father came from Belgium, worked hard all of his life; He had his own business, an electric motor repair shop, and every night he came home exhausted and covered in grease.
Everyone around me is an immigrant. The family across the street is from the Philippines, another neighbor is from Egypt and is a local Sheriff here, Kent's wife is both beautiful and exotic and very Mexican, and my mother neighbor came from Columbia, has two kids who are joining the US Army. This is what America is. This is the American dream.
