You cannot fix the third world by absorbing the third world and its condition.

Immigration Gum Balls

I realize it is an older video, but the issues presented are never more pressing than today, as is the sound reasoning behind it.

It is crystal clear to me that if you want to help those in the third world better their condition, then you absolutely must address the third world condition in the actual third world where they live, NOT in America where when we become the third world after we have absorbed it, will have no means of helping the actual third world, but will one day need assistance to escape it ourselves.

What are we doing and how is this not destructive to our own end? It is pure insanity.

They're not trying to fix anything.

This destruction is on purpose.

It's not about fixing.

It's about making everyone else as bad as they are.

It has to be. That’s the only thing that makes any good sense, a great reset to usher in a new world order of Marxism where we will never escape the powerful influence of the governing elite who enrich themselves at all of our expense.

Exactly the same argument as this "affordable housing" BS that certain politicians are trying to force on all new developments. When you move a bunch of ghetto dwellers into a nice neighborhood, they don't rise to the level of their surroundings. They just drag those around them down.

Are you under the impression that the “3rd world” can, or even should, be “solved”

Poverty will always exist. Poor people and countries will always exist.

The idea that it is something that can be solved is insane.

True, but the sheer number of them don’t need to be so overwhelming, and when the ones who have the wherewithal to create business opportunities, industry, and protect trade in the world to actually help people in the third world become that third world, there’s no more hope for the third world or ourselves.

To me, this is nothing more than a fast closing window of opportunity in this world to actually do something substantial about this condition, and everyone benefits as a result, but for that to happen, you have to actually embrace the concepts of capitalism and not servitude under the guise of a Marxist pipe dream that’s proven to be a failure no matter where it is employed.

I really do not understand why any country in south or central America has prisons. They could easily ship all the convicts to the USA. And why do they have long term, chronic health care patients in their hospitals? They could easily ship them all to the USA. They could really cut down their expenditures with just a better shipping system.

Third World conditions, at this point in history, can't be "solved".

Taking the third world and putting it in places like the US is done by the elite on purpose. Now you have millions of Americans citizens willing to do it for political power.

Many of these 3rd world countries used to be European colonies and the people were very well off and much better as subjects of a colonial power that extended them rights. For example is India, Pakistan, South Africa, Guyana, better off now that they not part of United Kingdom? I would say no. These places have become miserable places.

That’s exactly what Castro did, but lucky for ourselves, most were political dissidents, but point taken.

Its all the authoritarians know to do.

There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream "Oppression"
And the oaks just shake their heads

So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
"The oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light"
Now there's no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw

It would take multiple atomic bombs for the U.S. to become a 3rd world country meaning (GDP, infrastructure, education, health care, ect.) on par with Gambia and Haiti.

The idea is that the West got to be who they are unjustly…

A lot of wealth was pillaged from the third world to increase the standard of living of North America, western Europe, and Australia
