#1 Hmm. Why could this possibly be happening? I am ready to put the blame on racism, sexism, lookism, and a lack of concern for criminals - without these prosperous people as a ready source of prey, how will the underclass survive?

#3 When I was there in 2005, every white person I talked to was already involved in planning to emigrate. I don't blame them a bit; all they've got to do is look to their north to see the future.

#4 The old Soviet Union [not to be confused with the New Coke] and the Eastern Block countries had a semi-workable solution for this. I doubt though in forty years there's going to be a large conglomerate of much wealthier countries on your border which lives off of American military welfare to help.
