Both my parents are English and came out to Australia in 1967. I was born the following year. My parents and immigrants like them were known as '£10 poms.' Back then the Australian government was trying to get educated British people and Canadians - to be honest educated white people - to come and live in Australia.
I'll tell you in my life I've never once have seen a Hispanic panhandler because in our community it would be viewed as shameful to be out on the street begging. Those are all conservative values - faith family hard work responsibility.
