Combating the jihadi demographics

Houston we have a problem. In a couple of posts under, Mickey goes jihadi and Ft. Dix six, Lex begins to question the whole notion of Islam being a “religion of peace”, as we’ve been told since 9/11. Also in question in those pieces was the notion that Islam, the religion of peace - and really can we say that enough – was being “hijacked” by a “small” group of radicals.

Here’s where we have a problem. It seems the number, even here within the confines of our borders, such as they are, ain’t so small. Turns out that 25% of Muslim youth in the USA think that suicide bombing is OK to defend your religion. That's a demographic nightmare for the West. There are about 7 million Muslims living in the US today. In stark contrast to today’s Western civilization in Europe and America, where the white population is old and declining, the Muslim population is young and growing. If current projections continue, worldwide, there will be more Muslims than Christians by 2025.

The next problem is one of magnitude. If we were talking about 25% of Lex jr’s class being troublemakers, we’d be talking about 2-3 kids – Lex jr no doubt being one. There are somewhere between 1.2 and 1.6 BILLION Muslims worldwide. So even if the number of troublemakers is a low 10%, that is between 102 and 106 MILLION troublemakers. If the actual number of troublemakers is, as I am beginning to believe, 25 - 30%. Uh oh.

So what is our government doing to help stem the inevitable demographic change taking place? It is opening our borders to uneducated and unskilled illegal immigrants. It’s raising taxes to pay for an ever expanding welfare state to the point that Mom & Dad both have to work leaving precious little time for kids. It confiscates more and more money to pour down the rat hole called public education where the few kids we have are schooled in a curriculum based on the latest Michael Moore and Al Gore movies.

I am of the opinion that all of this stuff is related. If America wants some figment of what we grew up with to remain, the following should happen:

Seal the borders

Offer a $10,000 tax credit for new born children. This is a tax credit NOT a government pay out. It comes out of taxes owed. It is not paid out to welfare breeding machines. Start having more Americans so jr can cut the grass, wash the car and other odd jobs we hire out to illegals.

Up the child tax credit to $5,000 per child. Make it so a family can afford to have at least one parent can stay home, keep the house clean, help jr with homework and cook dinner. If parents continue to farm the kids out to daycare, the credit goes to $1,000.

Offer a $2,000 tax credit for parents who volunteer at least 100 hours in schools. It’s obvious that the public schools need adult supervision and not just for the kids. If the daily headlines are any indicator, the teachers and administration also need to be under constant scrutiny as well.

Offer a 60% voucher for whatever the local cost per pupil for public education is to parents who home school or move their children to a private school – this gives the government 40% for doing nothing, which is pretty much what they are doing now.
