Open Question: TEENS: I need a little travel advice from the older Teens out there?See, me and my cousins (Tay, Jessi and Jillian) want to go on a trip, just the 4 of us, before we go to college. Our options are: Los Angeles, France, or a Cruise in the Caribbean we will be 17, 18 and 19 when we go. We will be going just the 4 of us. Tay wants to take the cruise, and doesnt want to go to France Jillian is fine with anything, but prefers France and wants to spend a day or two in Germany I am fine with anything We have yet to talk to Jessi TEENS: Where would you go? Where do you think we should go? Do you had some advice or anything for us? xoThankYouxo Open Question: Do you think that liberal areas are more racist than conservative areas?I mean think about it. Los Angeles = rivalry between Black and Hispanic gangs. New York City = Police always trying to arrest a Black man. Blacks and Hispanics hate Whites and consider them overly privileged snobs. Detroit = Oh boy, try being a White guy and living there, in the center of the city. Now in conservative areas like the south and the midwest (not the bigger cities), all people live close to each other and there is less segregation so the races learn to deal with each other and get along with each other. Anyways what is your view? Open Question: What are some stastics involving illegal aliens and why they must go home?Some other things you probably didn't know: www.usillegalaliens.com •Cities that receive the largest numbers of immigrants also have twice the unemployment rate, 40% more people living in poverty, and 40% more serious crime per capita than cities with few or no immigrant arrivals. •Some 11.2 million immigrants arrived in the USA between 1990 and 2000. This, added to the 6.4 million children born to immigrants living in the USA, accounts for almost 70% of the US population growth in the past decade. •mmigrants now represent more than one in every ten US residents, the highest percentage in 70 years. •Over the next 50 years, the US Census Bureau projects that immigration will cause the population of the United States to increase from its present 270 million to more than 400 million. •Nationwide, 33% of Third World immigrants who settled in the USA since 1990, live in poverty, nearly three times the rate for US-born natives. Some 36% of immigrants failed to finish high school, more than double the percentage for US-born nationals. •About 15% of US citizens fall below the poverty line, compared to 29% of non-citizens. About 11% of non-citizens have incomes less than 50% of the poverty line, compared to 6% of citizens. •The number of impoverished people in the USA's immigrant-headed households nearly tripled from 2.7 million in 1979 to 7.7 million in 1997. During that same period, the number of poor households headed by immigrants increased by 123% while the number of immigrant households increased by 68%. •According to Forbes Magazine, a greater proportion of the US population is currently living in poverty than what was the case three decades ago. According to Forbes Magazine, Significantly, Hispanics accounted for a statistical 0% of the nation's poor in 1959. •Hispanics first entered the tables in 1972, making up 1.1% of the USA's poor in that year. By 1996, Hispanics made up 2.7% of the nation's poor - almost equivalent to the Black figure. Forbes Magazine identified the leap in Hispanic poverty rates as being dueto their numbers being "fed by immigration." •According to the US Census Bureau, Current Population Survey, March 2001, some 22.1% of Blacks were below the official poverty line. This compares with 21.2% of Hispanics; 10.8% of Asians and Pacific Islanders; and 7.5% of White non-Hispanics. •According to the Puerto Rican/Hispanic Institute for the Elderly in New York, about 23.8% of elderly Hispanics in the United States live in poverty, with no prospects of improvement in their situation. •In 1997, 25% of all children in California were living below the poverty line. •The number of children living in poverty in California had increased by more than 3% from 1990 to 1997. •In the Appalachia, Mississippi Delta, Black Hills, and Los Angeles areas, more than 30% of Hispanics are below the poverty line. •According to a survey by the University of California at San Francisco and the Field Institute, Latinos are 13 times more likely to be part of the working poor -- defined in the survey as a family off our earning less than $20,000. •Denver's five poorest neighborhoods are populated mostly by Hispanics that only speak Spanish, particularly in the northern part of the city. In these neighborhoods, 80% of the children receive food coupons, and are responsible for 37% of the city's crime rate. •The number of people in poverty living in immigrant households in Arizona has nearly tripled to 330,000 from 113,000 during the 1990s.

Most of the rest were allowed in because they were relatives of US citizens or other immigrants or were refugees, and a quarter of the total were illegal immigrants. •During the 1990s, more than 1.3 million people with less than a high school education entered the USA. Ofthose who arrived in this decade, 34.4% were school dropouts. •In 1998, nearly 40% of immigrants had less than a high school education - double the share for natives, according to the 1990 census figures.
