WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF AMERICA?


First let me preface what I am about to discuss here by saying that none of what follows is based on race, it's only based on the facts. So those of you who may be in a rush to label me a racist, while it may make you feel better in your effort to justify you're shooting of the messenger, it will do little to alter those facts. Let me also start by saying that as of last year, more white people died in the U.S. than were born, a surprising slump coming more than a decade before the census predicts that the ranks of white Americans will drop with every passing year. And while that may come as welcome news to some, the reality of it is that it does not bode well for the long-term survival of this country. Which, I suppose, also comes as good news to some.

Now the reason I mention the fact that the white population is shrinking and the minority population is growing is the fact this is likely to have an adverse effect on the continuing viability of our republic. And the reason I can make this claim is a relatively simple one. Because whether you're talking about Detroit, Newark, Philly or nearly any big city or predominantly minority neighborhood, you’re looking at an area that is most likely nearly always decrepit, filled with crime, crooked leaders, drugs, murder, mayhem, poverty, disease, etc. As soon as the minority population exceeds the nonminority one, the downward spiral begins and seems to pick up speed as the nonminority population shrinks. That's simply a fact.

Now I'm sure many of us, at one time or another, have driven past some form of government housing, or some apartment complex that's heavily subsidized by our tax money, and couldn't help but notice the graffiti covered walls, the broken windows, the drug addicts in the stairwells or the randomly patrolling hookers. Or maybe we've driven through our old neighborhoods that were once thriving enclaves of working class families and much to our shock and disappointment are now nothing more than a collection of crack houses, burned our shells of what used to be the homes of our friends and yards now filled with two or more cars in various stages of disrepair. At the same time we can't help but notice the significant lack of white faces.

For a group that is supposed to be so religious, minorities possess what is a rather significant level of some pretty intense hatred which they have no problem directing at those who are not like them. And you would think that if there supposed faith was genuine, the black family would be in much better shape and promiscuity would not be at near epidemic proportions. But as it is, nearly 70 percent of black babies are born without the benefit of their parents being married. So it should come as no surprise that wherever black people cumulate, they seem to be completely unable to build a workable and sustainable society. And their preferred method of expressing nearly any and all grievances is nearly always to riot.

So as the white population continues to shrink I think that we can come to expect to see pretty much the same outcome for our country as we saw in those old neighborhoods of ours that were discussed earlier. Because I think it safe to say that as those who work to create the businesses that in turn create the majority of the jobs produced in this country die off without being replaced, the odds of our country morphing into what will become nothing more than one huge slum will only continue to increase, and rather dramatically. And the fact that we have politicians, in both parties, who are more than willing to pander to what is already a growing minority community, will only serve to speed up that process until what was once a very prosperous nation, simply implodes.

Let's face it, such things as patriotism and love of country are both commodities that are in pretty short supply in any minority community. The main focus today, as it has been for decades, is on how much one can obtain with the least amount of effort being required in return. The America that I see today bears very little resemblance to the America of my youth and I can only imagine what things will look like when my daughter reaches my age. My friends the future of our country, at least from the perspective of 2013, does not look all that promising. I wish it were different but it would seem that there are fewer and fewer of us who are genuinely concerned, and far too many of our politicians seem to be determined to expedite the decay.
