by Donald Jeffries, ”I Protest”:
Building our Banana Republic
When you look at present day America 2.0, you almost have to marvel at the depth of the unfairness, injustice, and criminality all around us. As I’ve said so many times, there is nothing accidental about it. None of the randomness our secular religion of “science” deifies. It was planned that way, to quote the hopelessly evil FDR.

Sixty years ago, every job in America paid a living wage. Whatever little homelessness existed, it was well hidden. There certainly weren’t tents on the streets of major cities. There certainly wasn’t human excrement on the streets of major cities. We were a very clear Patriarchy. Only two genders. Very few 30 year old adult children, let alone 40 year old adult children, still lived with their parents. Rent was affordable. Home ownership was possible. My blue collar, physical labor job included two raises every year. We had a traditional pension. If my company had kept that plan, instead of scrapping it in the 1980s like all the other companies were doing, I would have had $2 million or more in retirement funds, without including Social Security. My health insurance paid 100 percent of all medical costs, as long as you used one of their facilities. And it was all free- nothing deducted from my paycheck. This was common then. So how did they do that? We’re told we couldn’t possibly “afford” that now.
We all know, or should know, about the disastrous and diabolical Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965, which changed our policy from a strict requirement that 90 percent of all immigrants come from Europe, to a new, just as strict requirement that 90 percent come from non-European countries. It’s all there, in literal Black and White. Our White male leaders made a conscious decision to turn America less White. Yes, I know that two non-Irish congressmen, Jacob Javits and Emmanuel Celler, were the primary proponents of this anti-White legislation. It was the beginning of the Great Replacement. The Immigration Act of 1990 established the modern H-1B Visa program. While Mexicans and others from Central and South America began streaming across our always wide open southern border, Indians especially were utilized as foreign visa workers, to take over industries like Information Technology. No more two raises, or even one raise a year. Blue collar benefits began to disappear.
Also in the 1990s, a new corporate tax deduction was created for unprecedented, sinfully large “performance based” executive bonuses. It’s usually worth millions of dollars. If you want to learn more about how this has impacted the rigged economy, read my book Survival of the Richest. Because “performance” is not an objective criteria in business, this resulted in CEOs who lost their companies enormous sums of money being rewarded as if they’d accomplished great things. Even more ludicrously, “golden umbrellas” were created, where miserably failed CEOs like Carly Fiorina of Hewlett Packard, could be given exorbitant sums (in her case, $40 million) to just go away. Most of these corporations didn’t give any bonuses to the rank and file. Not even a Christmas turkey. This massive increase in executive compensation, combined with increased reluctance to pay common workers adequately, created the largest disparity of wealth the world has ever seen. No other country is close. We’re number one!
