I've traveled pretty extensively in the Third World.I've seen poverty...*real* poverty...in such countries as India,Thailand,Kenya,Tanzania and Brazil (among others).
Long story short...there are two billion plus genuinely disadvantaged people on earth.Moving any substantial percentage of them to prosperous nations in North America,Europe and elsewhere would only damage those prosperous nations.
I could support wisely targeted foreign aid to the nations I've mentioned.Of course it *must* be insured that such aid doesn't wind up in the pockets of crooked politicians,or their pals....a class of individual that's in no short supply in the Third World (including in countries due south of the Rio Grande)/
There will always be poorer nations, as you mentioned in your response...but I consider Africa where decades and decades of foreign aid has done little but create a dependent Continent.... There leadership corruption does not change and those leaders are always at International Funding Events with their hands out..that never gets to the people!

Hey, look who woke up.

Good question.
I was under the belief that Mexico wants to keep illegals out so more of their own can get in here to send money back. In any event it’s a sad commentary on how little Latin American countries feel towards their lower classes.
Yup. They use them as a kind of export capital to pull money out of our economy back to theirs.
That’s my point. As I’ve said here many times, if Mexicans put half the energy into fixing their country that they do into destroying ours than maybe someday Mexico would be a place Mexicans don’t have to run away from.
well I see it as wishful thinking because they’ve certainly had years to do just that and haven’t to date...Which is why my skin crawls when people here brag what hard workers they are.....the only thing they work hard at is sending their money back to mexico after they’ve raped this country.
you know your chances of survival are being calculated"......
and then they get here and do this....
