During the last years of the War, Lincoln actively tried to secure the logistics for sending most blacks out of the United States because, for various reasons, he believed that blacks would never assimilate.

Now, a century and a half later, this article confirms Lincoln's fears.  Most people "of color" believe that  the United States treats them unfairly;  they believe that the 4th of July  is just a "white man's holiday."

Life is much too short to be unhappy.  All of those people who believe that they are being denied "the pursuit of happiness" should be given a subsidy to help them re-locate permanently outside of the U.S.

They could go back to Africa or wherever they wished.  Germany would be a logical choice. Merkel welcomes without question any "refugee" and these emigrés could claim that they were politically oppressed.

The world is a great big beautiful place.  Please go elsewhere if you do not like the USA.

Happy Fourth of July!
