Bill Kristol: 'Lazy, Spoiled' White Working Class Should Be Replaced By Immigrants Published: February 9, 2017 Share \| Print This Source: Chris Menahan, InformationLiberation Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol called for the "lazy, spoiled" white working class to be replaced by "new Americans" Tuesday at an event put on by the American Enterprise Institute. While co-panelist Charles Murray said he sympathizes with the plight of the white working class and has come to support restrictions on immigration in the wake of Donald Trump's rise, Kristol said he's "actually sort of gone the opposite way." "Look, to be totally honest, if things are so bad as you say with the white working class, don’t you want to get new Americans in?" Kristol said. "Seriously, you can make the case—this is going on too long and this is too crazy, probably, and I hope this thing isn’t being videotaped or ever shown anywhere. Whatever tiny, pathetic future I have is going to totally collapse." The video was being taped, though it's unlisted on YouTube and was originally only viewable through the AEI website. Kristol continued: "You can make a case that America has been great because every—I think John Adams said this—basically if you’re a free society, a capitalist society, after two or three generations of hard work everyone becomes kind of decadent, lazy, spoiled—whatever." "Then, luckily, you have these waves of people coming in from Italy, Ireland, Russia, and now Mexico, who really want to work hard and really want to succeed and really want their kids to live better lives than them and aren’t sort of clipping coupons or hoping that they can hang on and meanwhile grew up as spoiled kids and so forth. In that respect, I don’t know how this moment is that different from the early 20th century." Kristol's comments are a stunning admission showing the utter contempt he has for white working class Americans. In Kristol's worldview, we are mere economic units to be shuffled around in order to maximize profits for he and his neocon buddies. As we served our usefulness fighting his neocon wars in the interest of "securing the realm" for Israel in the Middle East, we're now to be disposed of like used birdcage liner and replaced with "new Americans" who are easier to exploit. While Kristol's influence over American foreign policy has collapsed due to the rise of Trump and his Weekly Standard website is failing, this should officially mark the end of his career.

I;m enjoying watching libs head explode, this will do it HILARIOUS: Under Armour CEO DARES To Say Something NICE About Trump 8 clash Kevin Plank, CEO of Under Armour, did a very, very bad thing. He said that he ‘respected’ the President! Oh, the HORROR! Don’t believe me? Check it out what he said on CNBC’s ‘Fast Money Halftime Report’: PLANK ON TRUMP I think he’s highly passionate. To have such a pro-business President is something that is a real asset for the country. People can really grab that opportunity. He loves to build I don’t think there’s any surprises here. When you look at the president he wants to build things. He wants to build things he wants to make bold decisions and be really decisive. I’m a big fan of people that operate in the world of publish and iterate versus think, think, think, think, think. So there’s a lot that I respect there.
