The fewer people, the better.
It remains rural and non development without tourists and migrants.
Look at Europe and Middle east the land thriving, the other one is not. That's the difference.
Immigrants come to West Countries as a tourist and Expert they spend a lot of money there, they buy houses and bring their money to there. Not offense but you should be so grateful.

Yeah they are definitely different, and a big percentage is Jewish, imo just more materialistic (appearances) and more "liberal". @Ronn can chime in.
Unfortunately I have not had any exposure to “Shahs of Sunset” type. Jewish Iranians are more Jewish than Iranian in my experience so they live in a world of their own. There’s a big chunk of them in Great Neck, NY too. I stopped by a Jewish Iranian grocery store before Persian new year and they didn’t carry a single item related to that but had plenty of passover cookies.
But Cali Iranians, especially the Orange County type are not liberal at all in my experience. The old ones hate liberals, especially Carter, with a passion as they see them at fault for them having to migrate. The younger ones are like the rest of the Cali demography.
I agree with the materialistic part though.

    You do know Spanish is spoken about as much as English in the American SW, right? There are a bunch of native Spanish-speakers there.

    If you want all of that to be true: Utah, Idaho

    Migrants here usually only steal and become a burden.

    Well, the inhabitants of those countries should expel the Europeans before they contaminate them with their soft left ideologies.

    Trust me, indigenous Americans don't speak Spanish, chief.

    By liberal i mean their values are not the typical conservative iranian ones.

    Portugal is awesome, to live, not work lol.
    I can concur.

    I mean the pay is like slightly higher than 3rd world country level in Portugal, compared to rest of west Europe. That was straight from Portuguese mouths themselves when I was there last summer. One our Lisbon tour guides told us she made more in a week in London then she would do 2 months in Lisbon.

    And their collective traffic workers going on strike several times a year because they are paid so low, like a 4th of what respective job would had in neighbouring Western Europe countries.

    Like the Greek a decade ago, you can now find Portuguese peeps work migrating to North Europe in random countries (met a few Portuguese in estonia/lithuania and finland) because of the job market.
    Yep. People going back for a summer to make bank in NYC so they can live off a PT salary the rest of the year in Lisbon and make ends meet. Happens a bit.

    Some guy beat off on you on the train?
    Is it no-pants day on the train, which for Dru is called "today"?

    Indigenous Americans are the original America inhabitants.
    Bullcrap. Vikings before them, and they weren't the first invaders either.
