I agree, it does give an equal opportunity to all, and America is a country of opportuinities. I also do know its a multi racial place, but most of it is composed about a peaceful living stile. Majority of America is made up of towns my friend, and I do check stats...

So what would your complaint be to Russian or Pakistan or Spanish-owned businesses if they provide people like yourself with a honest living? Do those people have any less of a right to work than any other American?
If that issint America, then what is?
Honest deal? Honest living? Are you sick?! You dont live around here in New York do you? I dont think so. Come here for a day, live one day of my life and see how honest those Spanish and Pakistanian places go buy. How much racisim it involves, how many sneaky and dirty things they do. You have no idea, so please dont say such unless you actually know.
I'm not trying to flame you, but I'm wondering what your point is. You call the place you live in a zoo, your home country a place run by thieves, complain that people like yourself own businesses in big cities while they are the ones giving you a decent job, and then state that American living is in small quiet towns. Big cities have their place.

Money saved from cutting down on prison expenses could and should go into upgrading the standard of life in the slums and districts of big cities like NY, but why rob America of its diversity and culture by making Russian/Spanish/Pakistan owned businesses shut down or go away? These people are as much America as "Americans", as you said, so how does their being there make America not like "America"?
Those very "talents" you spoke of that America was built on ARE in those foreign businesses, those big cities, those immigrants who "rob" America of its soul. You claim that without them, America would be nothing, and yet with them, America is being robbed.
Pardon me if I'm the least bit confused by whatever you said.
I was talking mainly about New York and Morgans main post. New York has so many closed minded folk that are pure idiots that run these buisnesses, I'm talking about BIG things that those "immigrants" did that America would not be able to do without them, not delies, and laundry mats or movie theaters.
The bottom line of my post is America needs to stop its loose living of letting so much stuff slide by, like theivery in goverment which is very small right now. Some of America entertaiment is crap! Its promotes things that other countires never had! Russia did not need RAP in it, we did not need Russian Metalists "Rockers" fighting against Russian Rappers on main streets of Moscow, and those fights are so brutal you would not even imagine. And America brought rap to Russia, you have no idea how serious these things are, these are not just some after school fights, these are BIG I mean HUGE 200 people rushing against another 200 people in central Moscow. Movies like Swordfish, things that Hollywood movies show promotes terroristic acts. I find Swordfish the movie and the Bin Laden Attack very similar. It almost seems as it has inspired him to do an attack like that. Same thing with bunch of other titles out there, they show hackers that spended hours and years coming after work and spending nights in front of their computer learning hacks and then thats how the movies start, what kinda crappy messege is Hollywood giving out? A depressed person becomes a hacker and steals stacks of gold from the main Manhattan treasury? And where is this theifvery with New York and its business ran by Russians and other ethnic backrounds going to go? I mean just look at it! Where is this all going to end up? Freedom of chaos perhaps?
What I'm saying is America needs to think a little of where its going. We dont want things getting out of hand now do we? And honestly I love America on all other apsects, its a great country as I've said. A country of opportunity and freedom, but where is this freedom going? This entertaiment? Where is going to go eventually? I dont think MTV is going unite the generations of teens growing up in America by saying thats its O.K. to be a rapper and rocker and whatever those terms are today heh, MTV is not going to do that, most of the teens in New York are lazy slobs, and I'm pretty sure there are many great teens on this Forum, its just sort of shows the difference between the people and their personalities. Well and yet again I dont know where I'm going with this
heh heh but well I'm sure you get my main point here...
