How about say 20 M Chinese some day? Would that be a boon?
How about 10M Africans? Would that be a boon?
I have argued that we should perhaps take all Israelis, before they are, eventually, slaughtered in the Middle East. That may not be a good idea, either, and certainly not a boon to the US, but I do not have a better one. Imagine demanding Putin, or China, or India, take some Israelis, say 5M? or Poland, 2M ? Or Turkey 2M?

POLITICALLY THE VITAL CENTER THE HOLLOW CENTER
The so called vital center has turned out to be the hollow center of Western Civilization. It began in Europe. Very complicated really.

Re game birds, I recommend using Wolfert's recipes, and substitute snipe for quail wherever possible.
When I was a kid, we used to hunt for quail with beagles, but we also liked to go around lakes, while we were out there, and chase up snipe, with the jeep, with the windshield down, and just shoot at will when one rose from the swamp.
Snipe hunting would be a good thing for you to learn to do.
Google search snipe hunting, YouTube.

Reading the "The Times" chapter in The Anglo-American Establishment, one needs a break, so demoralizing is the account there.
Why not advert to Wolfert's book The Cooking of South-West France.
I recommend her chapter on game.

RE REAL BLUNDERSHIP AND OTHER ISSUES OF DECLINE OF WEST
Here is a reference I picked up, rereading The Anglo-American Establishment:
Alfred Zimmern: Europe In Convalescence, 1922. You can read it at Archive.org
Of course, it turned out hardly to be a mere convalescence........
Wilsonian blundership, and the blunders of the so called parvenu, Lloyd George, among others.
It is also a wonderful account of the foibles of politics, and how it was transformed in the 19th and into the 20th century, of the problems of industrialization, academic specialization industrialization, the decline of the integrity of the Press, the industrialization commercialization cooptation and compartmentalization of university systems everywhere, and other things.

RE ALL THE NYT LIBERALS ARE GLOATING OVER WESTERN EUROPE TAKING IN REFUGEES VERSUS EASTERN AND MUSLIM RESISTANCE
Remember what happened several decades after Europe was inundated with hundreds of thousands of poor ignorant Eastern European Jews, from Russia?
Take a guess.
How does the NYT feel about that wonderful civilizational globalizational integration?
Perhaps they say, "Why not give these refugees their own special holocaust in Western Europe eventually, too?"
In some ways, that makes sense, when you come from a sad heritage of perennial refugee dom.
My own view is that they should be required to remain in the Muslim world, whether they are Muslim, Orthodox, or Western Christian, just as Russia and Poland should have been required to keep their Jewish and other minorities rather than exporting them to the West, or, especially, (a British accommodation to Russia) to a Jewish no man's land, hardly a homeland, like Palestine.

direct democracy and Facebook converge
Pretty soon you will be able to vote, instantaneously, on whether your next door neighbor should be able to go to the bathroom four times tomorrow, or only two times;
and on such things as whether China, or Japan, should be allowed to take over all of our military contracts, direct democracy voter override the so called low bid.
