[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have more learning disabilities, ADD, and mental illness in the United States than exists in other countries because the people who couldn't hack it in their countries of origin immigrated to the United States, whereas the high-functioning people stayed there.[/quote] you're assuming that it's the lazy, idiotic person in, say, Vietnam, who finds a way to get the U.S. and live here? Data is pretty clear that people who immigrate to the United States are more highly motivated and educated than the people that stay behind in their home country. Which makes sense! Imagine the United States was in huge turmoil and it wasn't safe and there was no economy to speak of. Which citizens would find a way to get to Canada, Germany, Japan, wherever -- the people who "can't hack it" or motivated, smart people with some resources?[/quote]
