USA WHILE LOOSING RESPECT ABROAD FOR ITS POLITICS IS STILL THE CENTRE OF INNOVATION WITH ISRAEL BEING A CLOSE SECOND

 AMERICA OR USA  is a land of immigrants and more so as each year goes by. When you are in a city like Miami you realize that your chance of meeting an American who is not an immigrant or child of an immigrant is virtually ZERO. I am very proud of the fact that I can mingle with Cubans, Venezuelans, Nicaraguans (these three nationalities with diametrically opposite views on life to mine), Jamaicans, Haitians, Colombians, Brasilians and Chileans and not to mention Europeans. The asian and african immigrant population is proportionately less, even then I was not surprised to meet a Nurse of Ugandan Origin when I gave a talk to a group of Nurses, almost all of whom were immigrants to the USA. 

If you look at any field or excellence in the USA, it would be stacked with immigrants or children of Immigrants. All the huge companies that are deployed in our lives have immigrant CEOs or Founders: Amazon, Google, Facebook, eBay, Apple, Yahoo to name just a few..

Covid 19 unfortunately descended upon us and it is interesting to see the people who are involved in its inception and production: Immigrants!

The worldview of an immigrant to another country is different and more often than not, innovative. 

So let us welcome the Immigrants from anywhere in the world to this land where the Original owners of this land, called America but known as Turtle Island to the Natives, welcomed the ancestors of all the people in business and politics, same with Canada, Australia, Mexico, Aotearoa, all of Latin America which is populated by the children of immigrants along with remnants of the original people.
