Agree completely. It is time to focus on issues that will create a more prosperous USA that has a real economic base that provides jobs where they can send their kids to college and serve as assets to society instead of liabilities. We need much more in our USA economy than bankers, Wall St financiers and Wal-Mart. The expansion of both have been more negative than a positive for our long term mainstream economy.
Massive immigration that can not assimilate (legal and other) has hurt the creation of a stronger economy. It is pushed by elites of both Parties, and is intended to keep American wages depressed, change our culture and overpopulate the country.

I agree with everything except the overpopulate bit; while at this point it is obvious that we don’t need the immigration (due to the high unemployment), the fact is that Social Security and other programs don’t work unless the “contributing” population is growing (either naturally or as we’re seeing with the open borders). Western Europe is watching the socialist utopias collapse because the contributing segment of the population has probably already been eclipsed by the “takers”. They import immigrants, but the costs to businesses of the current batch of “takers” makes hiring them impractical (similar to what is happening here).
