| h/t Gates of Vienna On Friday Evening, a debate over the referendum of the mass-immigration initiative took place on Swiss television station SF1. In it, SVP (Swiss People's Party) Oskar Freysinger met in the broadcast "Arena" with assistant SPD (Socialist Party of Germany) chief Ralf Stegner who had commented (PI reported) on the result of the SVP initiative with "The Swiss, they're nuts!" Freysinger countered Stegner in the program with: "If what the EU is doing is normal, then I'd rather be a nut case." |

| #3 Mass immigration also brings in the political habits from "back home". You know, the countries where a single "party" -- frequently a single man -- has won every "election" in memory? Where unilaterally applied "fees" and "baksheesh" are the norm? Western pols dream of an electorate that malleable and comfortable with corruption. |

| #2 Mass immigration is the welfare state for the establishment. It lowers wages but more importantly, it raises rents. Good for those who make their income from unearned income, bad for workers. |
