Graphic: this review
Fourth in a series. Re: “Immigrant Loves America Because Everything Is Free” I was walking on the beach in Santa Monica with a friend, a recently arrived refugee from Iran, and she was talking about a dominant reason she embraces her new country. ‘I love America,” she said, “because everything is free.” Flabbergasted, I looked at her with wide eyes. … Read More
