Is that because they aren't educated? I know I hear some of that here in America. People will say that America treats our immigrants poorly. All you have to do is look at all the Mexicans doing all of the yardwork. But that is nearsighted. You see, those Mexican workers come here and have kids born as citizens. Those kids go to our schools. Many of them get a good education and move up the ladder. My own father was born in another country and came here with nothing and didn't speak English. He met a girl in college and she helped him graduate. Then he spent all of his money putting my brother and I through the best schools. Now I have 2 Masters degrees and make a hell of a good living as an American. So the promise of freedom in a Western country is that the future belongs to you. If you don't make it, then your children have a good chance to. That's more than I can say for people living in the Middle East where all they teach you in school is to hate anyone not of your religion and how to love death and suicide bombing.
