    'The British conceived of the American colonies as a "wasteland", and a place to dump their underclass.[51] The people they sent there were "waste people", the "scum and dregs" of society. The term "waste people" gave way to "squatters" and "crackers",
    used to describe the settlers who populated the Western frontier of the United States and the backcountry of some southern states, but who did not have title to the land they settled on, and had little or no access to education or religious training.'

    This explains the large influx of British migrants to U.S. immediately after the revolution. It was an orchestrated 'white trash' bomb delivery.
