I guess our Constitution and all the freedoms we have that other countries don't have, which results in us being so much wealthier than other countries — not that that's the main thing.

over the last couple of weekends, I have attended two events of the Hmong Americans who populate Wisconsin. Wisconsin has the third highest Hmong population in the country. I always love to talk about the Hmong because they came here not…
