Demagoguery works, at least so far for Trump.
华人同胞们最气不过的就是,
1.福利政策鼓励懒人,尤其是拿了我们的税收去养活他们
2.福利政策+移民政策让美国黑墨化,我们不得不为子孙担忧
好,有些东西如政治智慧、思维习惯、视野等短期难以改变,无法苛求。但是把Trump当成大救星的,你们知道这些事实吗?
1.美墨边境已经有很长的fence,做决定时Hillary和Sanders在国会都投了赞成票
2.Bill Clinton当总统时,对福利政策曾作了重大改革。两大党都支持并肯定了效果
3.Bill Clinton也增加了边境警力,抬高了入籍门槛,改革了移民法
所以改革福利政策、移民政策不是Trump的专利。任何一个有常识,有责任感、有在野党监督的总统都不会视而不见袖手旁观。
而Trump, 当他用不负责任的谎言诽谤夸大危机煽动仇恨,用不切实际的戏剧想象作为解决方案而给人一时之爽,用唤起选民的自私,偏见,恐惧,愤怒来扩大影响、获取支持,he crossed the line and became a demagogue.
* One clarification: the labor force participation noted in the previous comment is the projected rate for 2024. The most recent number (2014) reveals the same pattern:
Hispanics: 66.1%
Other than Hispanic origin: 62.3%
White non-Hispanic: 62.4%

Really?
你知道你所謂的“窮人“裏有很多好吃懶做的嗎?
你知道非法移民撞了你的車怎麼賠你嗎?

A few more things that you may want to know:
(1): There has been a net outflow of Mexicans from the U.S. in the last several years.
(net loss of 140,000 from 2009 to 2014) (see http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/11/19/more-mexicans-leaving-than-coming-to-the-u-s/)
(2): The Obama administration deported more people than any other U.S. president in history. (He's been nicknamed "deporter in chief" by some) (see http://fusion.net/story/252637/obama-has-deported-more-immigrants-than-any-other-president-now-hes-running-up-the-score/)
(3): The Hispanics do work. In fact, Hispanics have a higher labor force participation rate than the rest of the U.S. (Hispanics' labor force participation rate at 65.9%, higher than Non-white Hispanic (60.7%) or those other than Hispanic origin (59.7%) (see http://www.bls.gov/emp/ep_table_303.htm)
(4): Undocumented migrants / illegal aliens are not entitled to welfare. (see http://usuncut.com/politics/6-common-welfare-myths-we-all-need-to-stop-believing/ )
(see the above link for other myths re: welfare system)
