Another form of necessary assimilation is conforming to the citizens ideas of government role and size. Immigrants that demand more of a "better government" than their country of origin are showing that they are failing to assimilate, and therefore should not be here. But those who are seeking to increase government power see opening the borders for more immigrants will take advantage of these consequences. All while traitorously claiming that kind of immigration is "an American value."

A lot of libertarians fail to understand that when an immigrant comes from a country with a failing government system, most of them will not come to the conclusion that government itself is the problem, but rather that their government failed. They look at countries like the USA with a relatively "better government" system and see latching themselves to that system will improve their situation. They are not necessarily incorrect, but this creates further issues.

On this topic, I see why libertarians have no issue with immigrants solely here for economic reasons. Because they seem to only view countries as economic zones themselves, so they see no issue with immigrants viewing the country as that same way. But they fail to realize that immigrants don't share the same view on general freedom that they do. They simply demand more laws and policies in their favor while seeking the most economic advantage they can.

I do not know that assimilation for today's immigrants to western countries is possible. But I will say that assimilation is a bare minimum requirement for any immigrant coming to the US or any other western country. By moving here, you are admitting that we are doing something better than your country of origin. And if we are not, then why are you here instead of there?

Being here for economic reasons alone shows you are not assimilating, and you therefore should not be here.

I have a theory regarding the whole European air conditioner banning and shunning. Think for a moment which age group dies most often due to extreme heat. And think which age group makes the most use of government programs and welfare spending.

It is the perfect way to kill of the elderly without directly having to do it, all while claiming they are doing it in the name of "climate change." I guess we should come to expect this when there is an unwillingness to cut social spending.

When it comes to the premise that leftist activists are dumping algae into the reflection pool, I could see it going either way. I don't put it past Trump to make that claim, but I also don't put it past leftist groups doing this sort of thing since they will do anything to go against Trump because they cannot accept him getting any sort of win.

Given the past case of the suspicious wildfires years ago, I am leaning towards the latter possibility.

I think the best analogy for the effects of a collapse of the US is the passing of a kidney stone. It came about as a consequence of poor choices, and getting through it will be a painful process that will likely cause some damage. But getting through that pain will be necessary for a better outcome.

I should say that a kidney stone is considered a best case scenario. We may end up with a malignant tumor scenario instead.
