i have total respect for hard working immigrants...the fact that they are successful in spite of "institutional rascism" (whatever) and a language barrier shows the american dream is still attainable. you just gotta have heart kid...actually you are way, way older than me... | ||

It's my understanding that they have 7 years of being tax free. After that they sign over the business to their relative and after 7 years they come back and the cycle continues. | ||

I don't think they get help starting out, thats just a fucking excuse made by people who have been here all their whole and still haven't had what it takes to make it. according to the law, if you are a Resident Alien (Green Card Imigrant) you are not allowed to get any kind of govenrment money aid, in any way, if you do take government aid then that excludes you from becoming a citize for 3 years after you received your last check, (the USA doesn't want you to become a Citizen unless you can support yourself and pay taxes to support the Phucking bums who are on welfare for 3-5 years!) Secondly, The fucked up part of this whole system is now being put on my Girlfriend, No imigrants don't have it easy in this country, but thats what America is all about, pick up your boot straps, shut the fuck up and get to work.

my mother's side of the family immigrated from Russia 3 generations before me. They own farm lands in Kansas. The CEO of my company (who happens to be a white male *duh*) got *fired* and they sent the bastard off with 2.9 mill for severence. *poor bastard* Where do you draw the line of discrimination? ------------------ | ||

I think that immigrants and minorities should not be lumped together into one group. For example, a good friend of mine is Danish by birth. He was born and grew up in Denmark. His mother got a really good job here when he was a teen, and they moved to the States. Now, they're immigrants but they're definitely NOT a minority, 'cause they're white. About the immigrants getting all these breaks; I don't think they do, but on the other hand if they were to receive tax breaks from the government encouraging them to start their own business, I would say more power to them. How else are these people going to make money? Go work as a CEO for some Fortune 500 company with their limited knowledge of English? | ||

SEE, I CAN ONLY TALK OF WHAT MY FRIENDS HAVE TOLD ME... STU (THE GAYSIAN, OH YA, HE IS GAY TOO) SAID HIS PARENTS GET SOME KIND OF TAX BREAK CUZ THEY ARE CHINESE, BELL (KOREAN) HASNT SAID ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, I DONT THINK HE WANTS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE DRY CLEANER, HE IS AN ELECTRICAL ENGINEER FOR GM... STEVE (PARTY STORE, CHALDEAN), SAID ITS FAMILY MONEY THAT HELPED, BUT THAT TAXES ARE LIGHTER. SO I HAVE NO IDEA, I AM JUST WONDERING THE TRUTH... I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT, THAT IT IS QUITE RARE TO SEE AN AFRICAN AMERICAN BUSINESS OWNER COMPARITIVELY... IE, MANY MORE WHITES, ASIANS, INDIANS, ARABICS OWN BUSINESSES THEN DO AFRICAN AMERICANS... WHY? | ||

ACTUALLY, I HAVE A THOUGHT ON WHY TO MY LAST QUESTION... BECAUSE IF YOU COME FROM NO MONEY, YOU WILL HAVE NO MEANS... ITS A FACT THAT MUCH OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY RESIDES IN LOW INCOME AREAS (IE INNER CITY), AND THE CHILDREN OF THESE FAMILIES HAVE NO START UP ABILITY (YA, YOU GET SOME WHO WORK THINGS OUT, BUT...) SO IF YOUR BORN WITH LITTLE MONEY, THEN YOU HAVE TO WORK YOUR ASS OFF FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO GET SOMEWHERE... AS FOR ASIANS ETC... THEY SEEM TO HAVE MONEY SOMEHOW TO OPEN THEIR BUSINESSES... HOW? IF THEY COME HERE POOR, OR IS IT THE MORE WEALTHY ASIANS THAT COME HERE AND DO WELL? YOU CANNOT OPEN A BUSINESS WITH NO MONEY...NOT POSSIBLE, NO WAY, NO HOW... | ||

Minorities do get some help from the government. When I graduated from HS 2 years ago I had applied to John Carrol University. I graduated with a 3.1...which is alright I guess. But, I also was in baseball, wrestling, and track. I was told that JCU wouldnt be right for me. A friend of mine...who is from Egypt...also applied to John Carrol. He graduated with a 2.5 and did no sports what so ever or any kind of clubs. But he got in...b/c he is a minority. And...JCU is a $25,000 school...and he pays only $2000!!! I see this shit all the time...and I dont think its right |
