Speaking of which, anyone from the UK here? It's really amazing how the place has fallen and is clinging on to it's past glories. A lot of those problems you see in the US are also applicable to there as well. And yet everything there is still so expensive. They really are geniuses at marketing I guess.
The decline has shattered the facade and exposed the latent xenophobia embedded deep inside their racist psyche. They blame the tiny minority immigrants for the decline which developed as a result of their own (majority) actions (positions of authority are held by old white men, not immigrants). Self-righteous "holier than thou" mentality has plagued these folk for centuries - all positive developments are their own making and all negative are from immigrants.
One of the concepts that always made me laugh was one of population growths. They are genuinely afraid that a greater population share of immigrants (especially Muslims') will use their democratic right (which is championed by and boasted about by Anglo-Saxons) to make decisions that favor the immigrants.
These sanctimonious imbecils have fewer offspring for personal reasons and then blame the immigrants for not doing the same which increases the latter's population share. They want democracy and freedom but don't want to extend it to anyone but themselves, just like their descendants in America refused to let natives, negros and foreigners vote because they were afraid these minorities will change the exploitive status quo.
If you want to see what happens when a minority population grows so large that it can challenge the status quo by democratic means, then look no further than their Khazarian kin in Israel who have such a large Arab population that the child-killers accept only half the Arabs as Israelis while enforcing a full apartheid on the remaining half.
