And yes, we have those same "problems" in America.

The problem with the politicians and the citizens goes like this: uneducated / stupid people elect bad politicians, which do not do much to improve the education of the citizens, so future generations remain quite at the same level of IQ and education. So it's a bit of a chicken-and-egg situation. You need someone (or some people) to push the country further, but that someone also needs to convince the uneducated / low IQ people to trust him. It is difficult.
Happening in the UK right now with UKIP. Anyone who votes those fascists in I want nothing to do with.

On-topic, I do have a bad experience with one Romanian family who I lived next door to last year. However, they were trash because they were noisy and trampy as individuals, not because they are from Romania. They weren't even gypsies. I think to judge a whole nationality or ethnic group based on a bad experience is a bit tasteless. I'll be honest though, I can see people frown upon gypsy culture, but then gypsy culture isn't exclusive to Romanians. I've had far worse experience with Irish gypsies than with Romanian gypsies personally (and I say that being part Irish myself).

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."
