King Solomon
nothing is worthwhile; everything is futile. For what does a man get for all his hard work?
Generations come and go, but it makes no difference.The sun rises and sets and hurries around
to rise again. The wind blows south and north, here and there, twisting back and forth, getting nowhere.
The rivers run into the sea, but the sea is never full, and the water returns again to the rivers and flows again to the sea . . .
everything is unutterably weary and tiresome. No matter how much we see, we are never satisfied; no matter
how much we hear, we are not content.
History merely repeats itself. Nothing is truly new; it has all been done or said before. What can you
point to that is new? How do you know it didn’t exist long ages ago? We don’t remember what h
appened in those former times, and in the future generations no one will remember what we have done back here.

The Difference Between The Principles of The United States and France
Have you ever thought, like I have, that America stands for “Liberty Justice,
and the Pursuit of Happiness” (Which is interpreted as “End Justifies The Means.” while
France stands for " 'Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité'" (Meaning Brotherhood, and solidarity
among the French people) reflecting its revolutionary ideals? What a difference!!

Attacks on foreigners often lack substantial support, revealing a troubling
disconnect from the reality that immigrants are integral to the nation's vitality. Foreigners
contribute significantly to the economy, culture, and innovation, acting as the lifeblood of
American society. If we were to rely solely on a narrow demographic, the United States would
stagnate and lose its dynamic edge. It's crucial for Americans to "wake up" to this truth and
recognize that diversity and inclusivity are not just ideals, but essential components for a thriving
future. Embracing this perspective can help foster a more united and prosperous nation.

The Fallacy That Immigrants Are murderers, Rapists, and Drug Dealers
The Misconception That Immigrants Are Criminals
There is a persistent myth that immigrants are disproportionately responsible for violent crimes such as murder, rape, and drug dealing in the United States. However, crime statistics tell a different story. Data from sources like the FBI and Bureau of Justice Statistics reveal that a significant portion of these crimes is committed by white Americans, not immigrants. For instance, FBI data shows that in 2020, 53% of homicide offenders were white, while foreign-born individuals accounted for far fewer. Studies also indicate that cities with larger immigrant populations tend to experience lower crime rates overall.
The same trends apply to sexual assault and drug-related offenses. Most sexual assaults are perpetrated by individuals known to the victim, predominantly white males. Likewise, drug-related arrests and usage statistics show that white Americans make up a large majority of offenders. These facts challenge the stereotype of immigrants as a primary source of violent crime.
Beyond debunking these myths, it’s crucial to recognize the significant contributions of immigrants to society. Immigrants play vital roles in fields like healthcare, science, and technology. For example, foreign-born workers make up 19% of the STEM workforce, with 44% of medical scientists and over 40% of software developers being immigrants. They’ve also won more than a third of the Nobel Prizes in STEM fields in the U.S., underscoring their critical contributions.
Instead of scapegoating immigrants, it’s time to acknowledge the valuable role they play in fostering a diverse and thriving society. Combating harmful stereotypes and fostering inclusivity benefits everyone.
here's some statistics available on the Internet about the number of foreign-born scientists in the United States:
Republicans must stop Hitler’s tactics of scapegoating immigrants and instead acknowledge
their valuable contributions to society.
