I'm guessing, nobody will react. We already have the most impopular president of the last 50 years, one of the highest tax rates of modern country, highest unemployment rate, high abstention rate in elections, high immigration rates, high debt ratios, and the extremist political parties are on the verge of gaining massive support in the next european elections.
That, plus the fact that we've had numerous previous experiences of terrorists bombing our country, makes me think that we really have far bigger issues than the secret service spying everyone at the moment.
- hbbio 13y agoI have to agree with many things you say, but I can't figure out why "high immigration rates" may be a problem. If you imagine a country as a giant shop, the more customers the best.
- fchollet 13y agoImmigration can be a huge force for growth and prosperity as much as it can be destructive. You can think of a country as a company, and of immigration as recruitment. Recruitment will make, or kill, a company.
