Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18892I asked a girl who was working one of those kiosks in the mall how so many of them come over here and are able to own businesses. She said our government has programs and basically gives them money to start and run businesses, along with health care and other benefits. Yes this is true! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 574189They just keep rotating every 7 years and never have to pay taxes. They know how to scam the system............. . Yes, they know how to scam the system but the system is also set up to 'give' immigrants grants, loans, free healthcare, etc. SIL was interested in starting a business but found out if you weren't an immigrant, the gov't won't give you anything. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 380Because they don't have any job skills that would land a regular job. A family will all pull together, live together and work together to make it work. Family was more than our concept of family -- could have 20 people living in one house. I used to rent apartments and one time I reported back to my manager that when I entered a small apartment there were at least 20 sleeping mats stacked up along the wall of the furniture-less living room and more mats in the bed-less bedroom. She responded that people have to survive and wasn't interested in enforcing the rules limiting the number of people--like only 2 or 3 at the most in a one bedroom. |

Mr. Immigrant opens a stop n rob, runs it for 5 years & then "sells" it to a relative fresh off the boat who repeats the process until all his family is here. You & me are screwed, but Akmed has a great govt. sanctioned deal. What a country! |
brucem101 User ID: 631557 United States 03/09/2009 11:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Has anyone ever heard of Globalization? It is an idea that many foreign, and domestic public officials cling to--it is the idea of a one government world, where all countries are governed by one body and under one set of laws. President Bush was is a quiet supporter of this idea. We as Americans are being placed in a position slowly but surely where this country will no longer be an American race but will become a mixture of all foreign peoples. A large group of pure Americans would not allow our government to be handed over to a single governing group, but as a large portion of the population is no longer pure Americans, the vote would be so wide spread that the minority races within our own country will win over when the time comes. Americans are being split up by their own government to where when the time comes for the transition, there will be more Mexican, Indian, Korean, Japaneese,Portugese than there are real Americans, and they will be all for the idea of Globalization of course, so much that they're voice will overpower us and drown us out completely. Why else do you think our government invites them here? |
brucem101 User ID: 631557 United States 03/09/2009 11:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | But I must also add, where it is our government who is doing all this, it is also the fault of the American people. This country, in part and as a whole, has become a nation of blind, spayed pussies. And you throw in all these goody-goody assholes who say we should not block the foreigners and allow them here, remeber 9-11....if our government had not let them over here, and if the American public would stand up and fight to keep them out, 9-11 would not have happened. So everyone, just lay down, lick your nuts, and don't cry when it all happens again, cause YOU helped make it possible! Thanks America for giving yourself away! I am ashamed to live here.

skatmanwes User ID: 888713 United States 02/11/2010 06:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The fact that they own so many gas stations is really irrelevant since we as americans sell these gas stations to them. sure the government throws money at them like a damn parade, but we are so money hungry we jump at the first oppurtunity to sell. In the town I live in all of our gas stations were owned and operated by americans untill they sold it to Indians. The question that I have is, Why are they allowed to sell bongs, pipes(and meth pipes), but americans are not. Also why are they allowed to have slot machines in there stores, again americans are not. And why are all of them named Patel. When I was working at a blockbuster many years ago I typed in the name "Smith" a common last name that generated a lot of hits, but when I typed in "Patel" it was like a fucking plague. The name Patel more than tripled the name Smith. That my friends is very very scary. WHAT THE FUCK IS A PATEL? |

Thanks for the interesting subject ! Our CSs in inland SoCal were Middle Eastern owners,too and the smoke shops, and gas stations, and liquor stores. A few Indian people started arriving several years ago, and are seen here and there. BUT, the 98 cent stores and nail salons and dry cleaners and food services, and massage shops, are Asian people. Shopping center owners, tho, are Chinese people. I asked one guy how he got his store 20 years ago, he said special loans also, but said he had to come up with 10 thousand dollars. All I know is my families chances of surviving here are slim. And opening a business, which i am quite capable of and qualified for, is not happening in my lifetime. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 380There sure is something strange going on--in my little midwestern town, at least 90 percent of these stores are owned by Apu´s extended family.That´s way to high a percentage to be coincidental. I have also heard that they are here to serve the UN/NWO crowd, and that they will soon be loading us into boxcars. I don´t have any insider info myself, but what I see, I do not like.These Indians are often extremely rude, and seem to radiate intense hatred toward the Americans they serve. I do definitely believe there is a problem here, but I don´t know any details. Do you? |

Rottie User ID: 876048 Puerto Rico 03/15/2010 12:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My husband was in the gas station, truck stop, convenience store business for 40 years. He recently sold his last station/convenience store. The GROSS profit on the gas and diesel to the store owner long ago went to a penny or two per gallon. Not enough. The convenience store was the only way to make money, however the trend has been for the oil companies, that by and large own the property, to raise the lease payments, and shorten the lease period, out of the blue, even in violation of the lease. It is an upward battle to fight them on these contract violations. My husband finally said enough and sold out to guess who? Someone who could live with the drasticly lower profit margins. Someone who didn't mind a 24/7 business. Someone with a large family who could staff the store. If they net $25,000 a year on that store, even after all the payroll reductions due to family inputs, we would be surprised. |

It´s only a matter of time before whitey gets knocked down a few more times and comes back with a vengeance. Similar to the way you can´t take certain behaviors out of other ethnicities, those of european and caucasian ethnicities, when pushed too far, not only retaliate, but do so relentlessly. Its true. Last place I worked at was owned/ran by a (WHITE!) guy named Dave. He ran that place for 12 years until someone named "Frank" (whose real name is *Fahim*) came and took over the place. Dave hates Frank... even the customers hate Frank, he is a Paki, but he's a Jew with the prices in the store. EVERY employee working there, is female. You know how those guys like to tell the ladies what to do... "And as I fell apart, nobody paid much attention" |

I do definitely believe there is a problem here, but I don´t know any details. Do you? The misconception of these gas station and mini mart guys is that they are all just Indian. There's a lot of brown skinned gas station mini mart guys. There's so many different kind of indians from India but there's also Persians in the middle East and there's Palestinian Muslim guys to just Muslims from the continent of Africa,and Asians. From my understanding and correct me if I'm wrong cause I dated a man who was very social who owned 4 mini marts at 28 years old and came here from Jordan I have my own assumptions. From what I learned their economy in all of those countries (which are many) is so screwy that they witnessed no middle class structure in their towns or cities. There's rich industrial mafia families especially shriving throughout parts of the African continent and East ,and then there's the poor and they are so poor that even if you have money like us Americans do then you still are poor. The mafia rich families want all your money. They pick on any business owner with a stand or mini market. Even to the point of violence these rich elitists want a partial piece of what those poor striving store owners make. they will even resort to threats to the store owners families to flat out violence just to get that piece. In the mean time The rich who have last names with a lot of pull get richer,and the "wanna be" middle class who strive get poorer. So! These races come to America to embrace being middle class. I know the united states people complain about not being middle class and we aren't but we are the only ones on this planet that have a striving middle class. They come here to make it as a middle class family or middle class single business person OP. It's quite sad they worry for their lives in their own country but here they can actually make it and make it quite well slowly moving up this latter that could someday break them from being just middle class to upper middle class to just rich. The United states allows that. It's much more dangerous and much more harder in those other countries. Last Edited by Eve_4000Bc on 03/15/2010 01:13 PM Question authority every time. Ask them how that makes them feel. Ask them why? Ask them when you have an opinion with your opinion and question them with that! There is no being with ALL THE answers accept for God. Even still question. But trust if it's all good and loving then follow with your full heart believing. For the light will always be the light. It makes me a believer. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 380But definitely, the Indians are in the majority, from my experience, by a really large margin.That is why the character on the Simpsons is so stereotyped. So, the story from the Kiosk girl at the mall is that they get these loans and grants from our gov´t,which is basically what I had heard. But it is also basically what I don´t understand: How does a foreigner qualify for U.S. gov´t assistance? So, 1639--if you can, ask the girl at the mall if they have to obtain their citizenship first, before they get the loan or grant.If not, I don´t see how it can be legal. The US government spends billions in foreign aid each year, billions in bailouts to banks who in turn invest the money overseas, tax breaks to companies who outsource jobs, etc. The american government is out to help everyone except the american taxpayer. |

Now that the Indians own it they staff the stores with Hindu Managers and as many Hindu's they can bind to the place ,they still are vary much socially structured in the Indo-Aryan Caste System.In fact they are the Only True Aryans in the world there never was a white Aryan race ever,they made all that up in the 30's,kind of like a "Yes We Can" thing .
