Since I am now work for the Federal government, I get an up close and personal view of our Government's approach to extolling the virtues of diversity. I don't have a problem with diverse people as individuals, but the system seems to hold it up as a virtue. It is an element in the panoply of multiculturalism. In my opinion, any student of history can see that cultures are not equal. Western Civilization about 4-5 centuries ago took off like a rocked compared to other civilizations in the world. It's emphasis on individual freedoms and discovery created most of the worlds truly free societies and countries. It is clearly the dominant culture in business and pattern of government. The countries that have adopted some versions of Western Culture as a part of their government, and truly those that are succeeding in creating a free society: S. Korea, Japan, India, Taiwan and to a lesser degree Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand. Economically, Western Civ created free enterprise in the more libertarian form and Socialism/Communism on the other hand. Unfortunately for some (China) the bad twin took charge for a while.

Currently kids are taught multiculturalism in our public schools, and not the strengths of our system. Instead they are taught that WC enslaved the rest of the world and did harm to the world. If we don't respect our own culture, how can others respect it. Countries like Mexico have a culture that is a mix of the indigenous and WC (Spanish), and is therefore more collectivist. Should Mexico's political and economic culture ever become rooted as a bi-culture to our current English-Western European culture, we will see more of the problems that Mexico has like corruption, graft and a decline in the rule of law. God Help Us.

And even your say, indifference, to their diversity will bring you scorn.

Hey everyone it’s Cinco De Mayo!!!!!!!

Ok, enjoy. Have fun. I’m headed home now.

George is a racist.
