Here is an awesome entry in IMAO’s comments:

James,

You ask a profound question. What do conservatives like me want? Well take it from a guy who has traveled to every continent except Antarctica, I sure don’t want what the Third World has.

There is this depressing similarity among Third World nations, be it Morocco, El Salvador, Vietnam or Saudi Arabia. It’s the trash, dirt streets, emaciated animals, poor construction techniques, corrupt cops, prevalent violence, undrinkable water, racism, hatred, bigotry and depression. It’s being stopped by four cops with machine guns in Cambodia and being “asked” to pay the “road toll.” It’s meeting a missionary couple and their three small kids at a hotel in Colombia, then finding out a week later that Marxist guerillas kidnapped and killed them. It’s walking through the market in Marrakech and getting nauseated by the unrefrigerated meat covered with flies. It’s driving down roads in Angola and seeing all the bloated corpses by the side of the road. It’s having a prostitute in Thailand tell you that she has a great job – it pays so much more than any other job she could get. It’s getting so violently sick in Calcutta that you think you’re going to die because the bartender put ice in your drink. It’s driving through Saudi Arabia and seeing piles of discarded tires, abandoned cars and trash to make an American Indian cry along the highway.

Then it’s returning to the land of heaven, better known as the United States. The land of paved streets and lawns, and houses with paint on them, and water you can drink, and low crime and good paying jobs for women and responsive government and, well and just about everything else from free emergency medical care to clean air to people who stop at red lights and use the on ramps to get on and the off ramps to get off the highway. It’s not seeing adolescent girls selling themselves openly without comment by the locals.

James, I don’t want to live anywhere other than the United States of America, despite having an enjoyable visit to Australia. But I know for a fact that millions of men, women and children in the Third World watch television and movies and see what we have here and they crave it. They crave it because they live a life of pain and s–t.

So James I find your comments depressing and ironic. You and Michael Moore advocate a hatred of the system of government and economics which has created a virtual heaven on earth. You asked “Do you want western culture to conquer all the minority groups it can?” And I answer, “YES.” And all the billions of your so-called minorities in the world scream “YES.” You asked “Do you want corporations to be more rich and powerful?” And I say, “Yes, I want corporations which produce the medicines which cure the poor of the world, I want the corporations which feed the world, I want the corporations which produce washing machines and cars and airplanes and cell phones and computers to be more rich and powerful.”

Then James you asked a most interesting question, “Do you want to live in gated communities where you don’t have to mingle with the poor?” How odd. In order to conquer the world, we would need to leave our gated communities. And you implied, by the way you phrased your questions, that you don’t want us to leave our gated communities to conquer the world’s minorities. So I would answer this last question with “No I don’t want to live in a gated community, blocked off from the poor. I want to bring the benefits of my culture and wealth and beauty to the sick, poor and downtrodden everywhere.” You, James, oppose that. In other words, you want me to remain in my gated community so that the poor remain poor. Because as long as the poor remain that way, you have meaning to your life. You care nothing and do nothing for them. You use them as a crutch for your self-righteous evil.

And James, that is why I despise you and Michael Moore and all those who profit from hating and loathing the very thing which brings hope to the poor of this world.
