Do you want to understand the problem with immigration?

Question

This is a video explaning what the long term problems with immigration is. What do you think of the video?

Answer 1

Good point sent it to your senator & Gov thats where the change will be made Thanks for the clip.No Amnesty & close the borders.Enforce the laws we have. Deport after jail time.Make it A Federal crime 20yrs first time crossing.

Answer 2

I'm English-Canadian, and if there were economic problems with international migration, then people like you should have a problem with migration within the U.S.



What if Boise, Idaho was overrun by 1 million people from New York? Maybe there should be migration restrictions. My point is the job and housing markets self-regulate migration within the U.S. and they are capable of doing the same internationally for the greater good of all of us.

Answer 3

I think that inmigration is great for the economy because there are more people to take the jobs nobody wants to do, besides there are highly intelligent foreigners, like me, that can help a lot the economy and society.

Notice: I'm NOT an illegal inmigrant and I'm NOT a mexican.



Quotes about inmigration by Ludwig Von Mises:

"There cannot be the slightest doubt that migration barriers diminish the productivity of human labor." LVM



"The closed-door policy is one of the root causes of our wars." LMV



"Immigrants soon find their place in urban life, they soon adopt, externally, town manners and opinions, but for a long time they remain foreign to civic thought. One cannot make a social philosophy one's own as easily as a new costume." LVM



"The principles of freedom, which have gradually been gaining ground everywhere since the eighteenth century, gave people freedom of movement." LVM



"A nation that believes in itself and its future, a nation that means to stress the sure feeling that its members are bound to one another not merely by accident of birth but also by the common possession of a culture that is valuable above all to each of them, would necessarily be able to remain unperturbed when it saw individual persons shift to other nations." LVM

Answer 4

Wow, that says it all, doesn't it. I have been calling senator after senator and emailing them all. The immigration bill must be stopped, the border closed tight, and the illegals rounded up and sent home. Anybody that says they have to all be picked up at one time is foolish, just get rid of them they way a chicken eats.. one seed at a time.



I know that our politically correct, bleeding heart population won't let it happen.... we are doomed.



We already have let so many illegals in, like Miguel above me here, that it is like a mexican flag waving army is already well established in OUR country.

Answer 5

Too many illegals, most bringing over disease and crime. The government needs to do more raids on business who hire illegals. I'm tired of walking into a store and the associate cant even speak english.

Answer 6

Those are more or less the same arguments made 100 years ago against immigrants from southern and eastern Europe and China.



The sources of immigrants change, but the bigotry stays the same.

Answer 7

all i know right now is that these people cannot remain "illegal" in this country and deporting them all back is not possible or practical, everyone (governemnt, media, scholars) have been saying the same thing.
