"Before the creation of the welfare state, immigrants who came to this country were for the most part attracted by America’s reputation as a land of freedom and opportunity. Laws and customs that then prevailed required immigrants to carve out their individual destinies by their own labor, perseverance, intelligence, and determination."

    Robert, the reference to immigrants carving out their individual destinies by their own labor, perseverance, intelligence, and determination as is averse to the occupying statist theocracy infesting this land's welfare state for immigrants. An understanding that is becoming more accurate all of the time.

    Little kings and queens and their families ( Elite ) plotting the downfall of our liberty and freedom from within. The greatest attraction of all. Freedom and opportunity.

    The Counsel of Trent furthering their agenda. The result of the assault a mere 500 years latter. The Holy Roman Empire, disbanded in 1806 ? I don't think so ! We have a prince in office who plays well into their hands. Knowingly or not. As does Islam also. Both ends against the middle, we are caught in the middle. Freedom overrun by way of democracy and emigrational overthrow. Good little catholics from the south bringing disease and overburden, children used as weapons of war !! Wake up America !!!
