I don't think he was making the point that Immigrants are bad people. how can i put this...
You and a few friends start a commune, okay? You work like dogs to provide for yourself and the others, and pretty soon you start making enough to export from your commune. you get a little bit of cash flow, word gets out, you get more cash flow and more word of mouht adverstising. all of a sudden, you guys are living clean and free and making a flippin fortune. You're living of yourselves, your customers are happy, and you have enough cash to build yourself a nice palatial estate on your land (lets just say you have a fairly good chunk of land, with plenty of unused space between you are and your communal brethren) all of a sudden, your customers families start hearing about how sweet you've got it. Their thinking "well damn, i could go live with them, and since they've got it going good already, i could pretty much coast. everything will be cherry if i can just set up a tent next to joe johnsons house there in the commune and collect some extra product and cashola! he coasts in, maybe even works as hard as you do. but that doesn't mean the next guy will. or the next. or the next. cuz once other people see taht they can cruise in without your permission, and give you a puppy face and a sob story about what life was like otuside your commune, you'll cave and they'll be in the clear. Now, you keep allowing this because you don't want to look greedy and offend your needed customers (you've been trading for long enough that you NEED things from them now. gas, fertilizer, new seeds, technology, etc.) pretty soon, the ratio of sweetness to slackers camped out on your lawn mooching off the estate is pretty hefty, and your little commune isn't looking so sweet anymore. it's in debt because you're trying to be nice and PC and support all those poor helpless folks.
doesn't sound so nice for you anymore, does it? thats the point i believe he was trying to get across, albight quite drastically.
and, um.... yeah. Anarchy? *cracks up* Unfettered capitalism is one thing. Anarchy is quite another. with anarchy, if i decided not to work, i could get together a nice little gang and cap you in your hippy loven buttocks. and their would be no police to say Nay unto me, and the only challenge would be keeping me gang of roving profit killers large enough to stomp down any smarmy town folk. Basically, you're looking at Waterworld. Anarchy is bad homes, very bad.
