Did America's 2007-09 economic collapse result in Americans leaving in droves for Europe or Canada?You don't know what you're talking about. 90% of European countries are in super-solid shape. OTOH, Spain, Ireland and Greece have been in the gutter for three years and I have yet to see any evidence of Spaniards, Irish or Greeks coming here. America has nothing to offer to those people. We get Hondurans and Cambodians just like they get Libyans and Cameroonians. Get used to that fact. |

Europeans will migrate within the EU to find work. But I wonder how long that will last if Italy, Spain, Portugal and Ireland go the way of Greece. Small immigration quotas from those countries. Since the LBJ 1965 immigration law we have preferred people from 3rd world sh*tholes over Europeans from countries with similar values to ours. |

Europeans will migrate within the EU to find workYes. An out-of-work Greek person will move to Germany or the Netherlands or France which have much better economies than the US, are close to home and have no immigration requirements (other than to be able to support oneself) for EU citizens just like an out-of-work Alabamian will move to Illinois or NY for the similar reason. Since the LBJ 1965 immigration law we have preferred people from 3rd world sh*tholes over Europeans from countries with similar values to ours. America's employers wanted an end to the pre-1965 quotas because immigration from Europe had dried up, wages were rising and unionism was strong. |

We still have plenty of Eastern Europeans coming here. There's plenty of neighborhoods with Polish, Slovenians, Bosians, and other countries of the former yugoslavia, etc coming here. We don't just get "hispanic" immigrants. |

Immigration from Poland dried up after they made the EU.Bosnia, Ukraine, Albania, etc are non-EU Shit Countries. The Guatemalas of the European Continent. My point stands. |

Still plenty of Polish immigrants arounds. And you may or may not want to call them Europeans to fit your needs, but Bosnia, Albania, Ukraine, etc are all European countries. |

Still plenty of Polish immigrants aroundsThey came before that country entered the EU. You still have old time Italian immigrants who came here when most of Southern Italy was a Shit Place. Once these countries make it, their people have no desire to come into the country with the least social mobility in the advanced world. They have better places to emigrate to. My point stands. but Bosnia, Albania, Ukraine, etc are all European countries. and Guatemala is part of North America. Hell, Third World counties in Oklahoma and Mississippi are even part of these United States. |

It seems like every other week in Queens, another American supermarket closes down, to be replaced with an Asian supermarket. Especially in Flushing and Bayside. |

"and the Indian subcontinent "Do we use the term for 'arabs' also? They've exploded in recent years nationally as much as Indians on work visa's. Does the story mention the difficulties in getting enough Indians over here? There's been complaints about that from companies over the visa process. Or is this all about Obama votes? |
