I think I have an explanation. Actually, many have thought the same and have said so. Western societies, including the United States, are built completely on the socialist premise, which basically functions as a pyramid scheme. The U.S. attempts to mask socialism a little with elements of capitalism for the wealthiest players, but who could ever argue that social security, medicare, medicaid, free education, free housing, food stamps, and welfare are not full-fledged socialism (and worse)? Europe, of course, is more socialist than the U.S., but the differences are only a matter of degree not kind. All of the promises made by politicians to the people over the last 60+ years were designed to keep themselves in power. The promises basically redistribute wealth, and fully rely on steady growth in the population. That reliance is absolute and not flexible. Among the majority-White populations of Europe and North America, the population growth rates over the past few decades have not been nearly sufficient to sustain the socialist pyramid schemes, as required to keep both continent's socialism-driven economies from collapsing. In summary, the bastards have made decades of untenable socialist promises that they cannot keep. They are now desperate for warm bodies to buy things and pay taxes. If that means taking money from you and me and "redistributing" it to sub-human savages who don't clean their own asses and would just as soon rape you or kill you as to look at you, so be it. It doesn't even matter if they are legal or not. The governments unconditionally need them to mask the effects of their abject failures (e.g., lies, frauds, deceits) just a little longer. Basically, everyone talks about "someday when the shit hits the fan", but it actually hit the fan many moons ago. Both Europe and North America are now like the runaway train that has gone over the cliff and is now in a free fall. We haven't hit the ground yet, but nothing and no one can stop that from happening now. As a backdrop to all of this are the relentless central banks of the U.S. and Europe. They are forever printing and collecting an interest rate from the billions of people, regardless of what kind of economic climate exists. They are the biggest fish by far and they will always eat first. As for the politicians, they are simply trustees on the prison farm. They are expendable and will take the big fall for the central bank owners when the public occasionally becomes restless to the point of lashing out. You and I, of course, are literally nothing.
