  • Why?

    That’s complicated.

    People see a lot of immigrants coming into their area, and taking jobs. It’s not hard to see how people would draw a connection between the above statement and connect it to “that’s why I couldn’t get a job”. There’s a natural push back there.

    Some companies see the influx of immigrants and realize they can get cheaper labor, and those that don’t get the job (the ones who already lived in that area) get disgruntled. It’s easy to talk some of them into joining a side that pushes back on immigration.

    One of the things the far right looks at is immigration.

    The left typically asks for bigger government and more social welfare programs (more taxes).

    The right is typically smaller government and less social welfare programs (less taxes).

    At a time when we are downing in debt and can’t afford to buy food, have less taxes and more money in our pocket is an enticing idea. Easy to pull people to the right.

    The worse the above problems get, the further to the right people go.

    The further to the right they go, the less they hear from the left. Now they only see and hear one side. It becomes a vicious cycle at that point.











  • Article is a little light on facts. The author should have looked into whether or not the other tenant was actually a squatter or not. We only know at this point she is an alleged squatter from a tenants statement. Why not check with the landlord to get the facts? Why not check with the other tenant to ask if she is a squatter?

    But let’s assume she actually is a squatter for sake of argument. I mean it’s a weird thing to allege.

    I dislike the gop. I dislike squatters. I dislike trespassers.

    Person a trespassed into the one side of the house in order to throw a spider.

    Person b is a squatter. (Again we don’t have info from the landlord (lazy reporting)).

    Everyone sucks in this article including the author of the article.
