"When there weren't no food, we'd eat frogs.
When there weren't no frogs, we'd eat crawdads.
Ain't no crawdads, we'd eat sand ..."

- Old black prisoner in Raising Arizona

Soon enough H.I. gets sent back to prison, gets the same bunkmate, and same stories:

"My mother would boil up crawdads something nice. 
One time I decided to make 'em myself.  But I forgot the water.  Those crawdads went off just like popcorn ...."

Overpopulation in America;

The 'middle class' have already disappeared, become the 'working poor'?
The 'working poor' have already disappeared, become the 'poor'?
The 'poor' have already disappeared, become the ''extremely poor/unemployed/homeless'?

Next stop...the 'peasants' [all but the wealthy] will be 'living in landfill', as massive overpopulation caused by massive illegal/legal immigration soars.
As has happened elsewhere there is overpopulation;

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/long_reads/living-in-landfill-a7632996.html

...combing through trash every day for items of the slightest value to sell for a pittance. Their communities mirror those found anywhere else in the world – neighbours become friends, and there are shops and schools and places to go to unwind after a hard day’s work – but the difference is the inescapable, oppressive backdrop of filth, danger and disease.

Families – sometimes several at a time – live in shanties made from found wood and sheets of corrugated metal and plastic, with bricks and tyres placed carefully on roofs to stop them blowing away. Surrounding these homes, stretching for as far as the eye can see and sometimes two or three storeys high, are piles and piles of medical and electronic waste, used nappies and sanitary items, general household rubbish and broken glass, not to mention dead animals and human faeces.

It’s called failed distribution, not overpopulation. Nice try, fascist.

The Pope's Christmas message;

https://www.dw.com/en/popes-christmas-day-message-the-light-of-christ-is-greater-than-all-conflict/a-51790161

The Argentinian pope then prayed for migrants who attempt a perilous sea crossing in hopes of reaching Europe.

"It is injustice that forces them to ensure [endure?] unspeakable forms of abuse, enslavement of every kind and torture in inhumane detention camps," Francis said. "It is injustice that turns them away from places where they might have hope for a dignified life, but instead find themselves before walls of indifference."

#####

Walls are protecting countries from being swamped, overwhelmed to the point of overpopulation, squalor, and ruin.

Solution;

Fix the countries they're leaving, where the abuse, enslavement, torture etc are happening.
"Break out the drones"..."Take out the abusers, enslavers, torturers".

So, you're a "redistribute the wealth" kinda guy/gal?
An 'unbridled immigration' guy/gal?
Karl Marx ilk your hero?
You would have inheritors of property being forced to purchase the hereditary property? as in Prussia et al where Marx and his cronies were 'king'?

Homeless American citizens is not a popular liberal elitist issue. It interferes with the mass migration is good for all myth.

[bambu.]

Many post-war immigrants to Australia from Europe were bound to work for the federal govt for a certain term, in return for free/very cheap passage.
They were housed in basic accommodation like those semi-circular roofed buildings in which US troops used to live.
They stayed there until they could afford to move to other housing.
Skilled tradesmen, greatly valued.

They worked hard, completed their contract terms, then became citizens.
They saved, bought houses for their families, lived very frugally....also bought shops with a residence above and ran fish and chips shops, milk bars, coffee shops, fruit shops etc.
Over their lifetimes they still worked hard, still saved, and bought investment properties...said properties now very valuable.
Their children have, are, and will in the future inherit the wealth [built on "blood, sweat and tears".] Many taking over the family businesses.
 
The redistribute the wealth lot no-ideas see them as rich, and want to take their wealth and give it to people who 'wouldn't work in an iron lung', gambled their wages away, 'drank like fish', 'smoked like chimneys', and have no assets.

'Redistribute the wealth' lot...baaah!

You just described a weath redistribution plan.

No one is born with wealth or hatred. These things are distributed As we go. We need to do a better job at both.

There hasn’t been a republican chief executive since Eisenhower who hasn’t earned several terms in prison with their oath breaking and criminal behavior.

But they have a White minority oligarchy to protect and that takes a whole lot of crime and dishonesty and completely diseased minds to maintain.

They’ve been crippled in California, Ronnie Raygun’s base of power. It shows that they can be whittled down and drowned in bathtubs everywhere no matter how strong they pretend to feel.

Merry Christmas to my friends of good heart on this forum and also to the rest of you, miserable crackers working to destroy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in all its forms.

Ah yes, California...soon to be 'Mexican' if one believes the quotes and writings.
Overpopulated now, Lord only knowns what it'll be like in the future when the 'open borders' lot have finished working their magic.

Seems like the middle class/Whites got out before they could be 'drowned in bathtubs', and while the getting out was good.
Some may have gone off to join the 'guns are great' collective, seeing what the takeover merchants might have in store for them.


The Golden State is losing its glitter, rapidly. California has the nation's highest poverty rate. homelessness is rampant. State officials are focused on protecting illegal immigrants from deportation rather than reversing the flight of the state's middle class. Actor and model Fabio, an immigrant, weighs in on California's decline. #Tucker

The state is home to four of the 10 cities with the largest homeless populations in the US: Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, and San Jose.

The  homelessness crisis in San Francisco is by far the most acute; Leilani Farha, a United Nations special rapporteur, has called it a “human rights violation.” From 2017 to 2019, the city  saw its homeless population rise by 30%.

In Los Angeles, meanwhile, the homeless population has increased by 12% since 2018.

There'll never be proper, liveable, wages while ever there's overpopulation.
And there sure is overpopulation in California.
The 'working poor' are now the 'homeless poor with a job', living in their cars in gated carparks, mace handy in case of trouble.
They can't afford housing, and, gas for the car to get to their job, etc etc etc...their wages are very low.

Oddly enough, we've had poor people with many fewer folks, dolt. Some of the states with the poorest people aren't crowded. Look at a map of US poverty sometime, if you actually want a chance of knowing what you are talking about.

Not holding my breath.

I favor distributing all of our hatred to some place irrelevant. Like Australia.
