Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

i get where youre coming from, really. but theyve also made it incredibly hard to immigrate to the US on purpose. they dont want legal immigrants.
and its not quite the same thing as iceland... the US has an obscene amount of space and resources and is more than capable of incorporating a huge number of immigrants. this country was built on immigration, by immigrants.
this is more about hating brown people than it is about 'legal status'.
Iceland has nothing but space and resources yet it's nearly impossible to immigrate there and I don't see anyone complaining about it. This analogy can apply to all of Scandinavia really
hahahaha it doesnt even have the population of a single major US city.
california is the 5th largest economy on the planet, and its just a single state. its not even kind of the same situation.
So what is it? Space and resources or population?
Yeah it has a small population because nobody is allowed to move there lol. And I argue it's one of the main reasons they have the highest quality of life on the planet
There was someone on here that said that the US sucks compared to all these Scandinavian countries...where MOST people are white... so, you're saying that those countries that have more white people, and less diverse cultures, thrive more? lol...
Yeah go to scandinavia and you will see that people are quite chilled out and content with life. I have family there and life in finland is easy mode compared to US lol
Again, as are most Scandinavian countries... they're not dealing with 300 Million different people from all over the world... it's just ridiculous to try and compare the US to any other country on the planet.
