The legacy of colonialism is, in part, to blame for the troubles you face in Britain now with over-population. The Western world went into many of these third world countries, exploited them to the max, and then blamed the citizens of these countries for wanting better lives for themselves. Did we really think that all those nice, little backward Africans would just say, “oh thank you Bwana for stealing all our resources, and then leaving us in penury.” The fact is, that many of these immigrants are doing jobs that we in the West no longer wish to do. I suppose Englishmen weren’t spitting on the sidewalks of Calcutta; just stealing an entire nation. Benevolent of them, what?
Obviously, the brakes need to be put on somewhere, but where? What if we stopped meddling in the affairs of other nations so that the people there might actually wish to stay in their home country? We, in the West, have enjoyed living at the top of the heap, and now some of that heap is crumbling.
