I realy feel for these migrants theyve come so far fleeing obvious horrors and poverty but they need to go through the process man. Most of these people are probably fine folks but it only takes one terrorist one pound of fentanyl to kill millions we need secure borders and better trade with Mexico who is more closely allighned to our values than China make everybody rich cut China and people will only try to get to Mexico for a better life.

Canada has ceased to be a confederation and has become a central axis of power in Ontario and Quebec and the remaining provinces treated like colonies. Equalization makes everyone equally poor and destroys initiative. We used to be a rich resource country but now we're trying to compete in technology and manufacturing with an expensive and low productivity workforce. We're becoming another Venezuela.

Clearly they need help. We should help them. That's what America is all about. This is all because of Bidens new border policy and illegal border crossings are down literally 70%. Amd you would think the Republicans and GOP would be praising him for doing something they wanted that Trump never did for them. Biden is a conservative, a republican a Democrat whatever you want to call these people. They all switch sides back n forth and want the sake things. For corporations and the 1%, the very people responsible for the destruction of America, the middle class, and not to mention the planet, to get all of our taxes, to get subsidiaries when they screw us like the banks, wall street and airlines etc. To help these corporations exploit us as much as they can, people are working for these companies and living in the street. To keep them from paying their fair share in taxes. Education, infrastructure, investment, they do none of it they do not participate in our democracy they are all participating in socialism for the rich and mass greed. We can't afford a roof over our heads. We can't afford healthcare. We can't afford school. The rich are taking all of our money and lining their pockets, the corporstions pockets, the military complex, the police depts. Republicans and corporate dems have been rerouting our tax money away from public education and towards private charter rich people schools for the last 30 years. Our country is in trouble. Rich people are playing monopoly ruining our economy and our society.

Canada's goose is cooked, I'm afraid. But we're all getting rich selling real estate to each other, so I guess it's all good. Governments at all levels continue to kick the real estate bubble down the road - it's popular.

Aren’t we fortunate in the US to have **none** of these problems!\n\nWe have no homeless here!\n\nTake a look at SF, LA (where all “solutions” are rooted in Bolshevism; “Hi, we’re from the government and will be taking over half of your front yard for homeless yurts (Ok, tents)--true story. Take a gander at any large, medium, and even a few small cities.\n\nHave you ever heard of Detroit (once proud home of my beloved Motown music), Baltimore (complete devastation), or Chicago (my home town—don’t make me cry)?\n\nThe entire homeless situation started when mental hospitals were snake pits and certain factions demanded that people be released.\n\nSure, it sounds humanitarian but they didn't bother to consider what would happen to mentally ill patients suddenly left to their own devices on the streets.\n\nThe do gooders actually were foolish enough to believe that the seriously ill patients (schizophrenic, bipolar, borderline, and plenty of others) would take their meds on their own. It doesn't work that way for patients who are not in contact with reality.\n\nNow we add extreme drugs (crack, meth, heroine, ketamine, whatever they hand out at parties, etc) and severe cases of PTSD/PTSS. It's obscene that we have veterans on the streets.\n\nHeath care--?. Pre Obamacare it wasn’t terrible but medicine had become a CYA project. We are so litigious (side eye to John Edwards ) that doctors practice defensive medicine and carry high limit malpractice insurance (guess who pays for that?). Every decision is driven by avoiding lawsuits, not proper patient care.\n\nPost Obamacare, US health care is an unmitigated disaster at every level. We’re short on doctors, too. Many quit and students are losing interest—medicine won’t pay enough anymore to justify $500K in loans.\n\nWe could repeal every bit of Obamacare tomorrow and still not be able to fix it. The leviathan grew tentacles that released toxins into every nook and cranny of the system. Now that they have buried themselves in critical layers, it would be impossible to yank them out.\n\nI have a good PCP who is booked 6-8 weeks out. Specialists? Hah. GI, neuro, and derm? Four to six month wait post referral.\n\nI never thought I would say such a thing but I would probably swap the Serial Sexual Predator occupying the WH for your Little Lord Fauntleroy.\n\nCan Canada compete with us in corruption? Government employees seriously tried to topple a sitting president and not only were there no consequences, they were able to retire on fat pensions that we citizens work hard to provide for them.\n\nOur government is run entirely by K Street lobbyists; our “representatives” don’t even draft legislation, that’s done for them by K ST.\n\nHow about crime? Do we even need to talk about it?\n\nHousing crisis? Prices were already too high when the regime (predictably) created runaway inflation and we saw the end of affordable interest rates. Even 0.25% increase will knock out many buyers; they won’t be able to qualify.\n\nWe are seeing huge jumps; young people have resigned themselves to never being homeowners.\n\nRacism? Again, look to the US. It’s nothing even close to what the make believe media caterwauls about. If white supremacists are behind every tree, where is the evidence? Surely, in 2023 has caught a cell phone video, right? Where are the videos? Show me the proof. There is plenty of footage of BLM destroying property and injuring, even murdering innocents. If we gripe about this behavior, we are raaayyyycccciiiiissssts.\n\nNo rational adult would claim that the US is not a violent country and becoming more so. Nor can we claim to have eliminated racism. That takes time; it cannot be done by force.\n\nOur economy went from smokin hot to dumpster fire in a short span of time. Pre election, head hunters were shaking the trees to find job candidates.\n\nOur unemployment is up as are our taxes with the stomping out of the tax cuts. \n\nDespite the endless sloganeering about how the Trump tax cuts only benefited “rich” people, it’s quite the opposite.\n\nHigh earners lost their pet deductions and lower income taxpayers were quite pleasantly surprised when they did their returns. The cuts were targeted to preserve wealth for the middle and lower classes.\n\nI could go on for another 100 pages but you get the idea and I get crabby writing for free.\n\nI will leave you with the caution that it’s best if you doubt and question any data and any stats coming from our government. Those are seldom legit. If the data comes from a study, always look to see who paid for it. And how large the sample size was; how were the participants selected? We are all on our own when it comes to ferreting out info.\n\nOh Canada!\n\nYou’re welcome.

If all foreign businesses and investors were required to hire 50% native employees on all levels including management and executives the problems within the continent would change within a decade. They're really needs to be accountability within government also who tend to get extremely rich on the plight of their people.

It's a land of very rich people that only want the best of rhe best, there is a LOT of gentrification from rich overseas immigrants that left the country super tension of being that rich or just go away, it's sad actually.

That's a lie! The migrants go first to the neighbor countries, but to travel to rich western countries as a final destination.

People should work hard for their own country growth. All wanna marry rich people to be rich

We are not set up to take care of all these people heck the people that are already here can't get help and im talking about real Americans because our government is to busy taking care of Mexicans it's sad Mexico won't start taking car of there own people and every Mexican i worked with has no plans on staying in the USA ?? they all said when they can retire they leaving and going back home rich just using our aid to get what they need then there out it's fuck America then

The average American is better off as far as salary goes but the median American is very much worse off. You touched on it with the GINI - in America there are a large number of very wealthy people skewing all economic indicators. The rich get richer while the poor get poorer. I do not want Canada to follow this route, it is OK if we don't maximize output because we take care of our people better.

BS, I'm black, I've been living in Canada for about 11 years, and I never experience racism, cops never stop me, asking weird questions, I ride bike in rich Neighbors nobody calls the police after me, so this guy just take a random video from a back women, and saying Canada is racism I call BS again she is lying for real

So be honest, Texas and California should be part of Mexico and if you don’t believe me, go research how we obtain California and Texas if you don’t know we stole them from Mexico and the sad part is it’s the only parts of Mexico that really had real economically rich resources if you look at the rest of Mexico, pretty much 60% of it is uninhabited and that is because there are zero resources or they are just very scarce and it’s impractical to put a society there. That’s why a lot of Mexico lives along the coast line. It’s also why most of Mexico is very poor and the other sad part of reality is it’s the same thing America does. It moves and says it’s helping but in the end, they screw people over and it’s not America. It’s just our corrupted government doing it and the other sad part of that is, if it wasn’t our government doing it, it would be someone else is doing it. Human beings in a whole are nasty, maniacal creatures, and we have stopped teaching morals across the world this stop being on teaching those morals has put humans into a spiral downfall of Self damnation

Well immigrants will have a relatively tough time. Canada is a diverse place. Live outside the big cities if possible. Speak English at home. Make friends with established Canadians. Be cash rich and house poor. Getting locked into a fat mortgage will just grind your happiness away.

The government, the colleges and the landlords are getting rich from the savings of thousands of indian farmers, how ironic life is.

Rich white ladies future husbands lol

This is why our black rich guys never create like Factories, stores like walmart , trucking companies for black to work. \nBuying 300 thounsand cars, jets just for intertaiment make no sense. \nLike what you do now, is helping million black folks all around world to connect. Thanks for that. Snoop dog every thing he does is stupid to me .

Is nothing new even black Africans are discriminated in their own countries by the rich political elite

I wonder why? If you can't see the correlation between Trump's failed Coups attempts, his economic war with Venezuela, and the days leading up to the end of Title 42, the Border Patrol stopped 2,400 Venezuelans daily. Trump is directly responsible for them coming: Small list of US sanctions: \n-Citibank froze and closed bank accounts in 2017 \n-Citibank blocked the transfer of 300,000 doses of insulin \n-Euroclear stole 1.65 billion worth of funds that were the payment made for food and medicine \n-Citgo can't send profits home more than 10 billion \n-Wells Fargo canceled payment of 7 million from Brazil to Venezuela for electricity \n-Financial transaction 7 million dollars of dialysis blocked \n-Bank of England withholding 1.2 billion in gold \n-Banks won't lend Venezuela money to drill for oil or mine for gold. Yet they are rich in both. \nReport: U.S. Sanctions Have Killed 40,000 in Venezuela Since 2017. That was pre-pandemic. They have not returned to study the deaths he caused by blocking oil tankers, food, and medicine during a global pandemic.

This is a warning for Americans, That Socialism destroyed a Rich and Prosperous Country like Venezuela that has more Oil underground that Saudi Arabia!! Meanwhile the DEMORATS are dead set on turning the US into a Socialist Sh*t Hole!! Let's go Brandon!! \nMAGA2024 SAVE America from the Socialist!!

*Mexico is rich in oil and gold*\n*The greedy Mexican leaders need to start sharing the wealth with their own people*\nIf they did, maybe they would want to stay home. Greed is keeping them down.

The HIJACKING of America! In 10 years this country will be unrecognizable....Some squeeze in at the bottom others are clever enough through our dumb loopholes to go right to the top, when you can't succeed in your own country and get rich quick here overnight something is wrong!! Our biggest export is our culture however what made the US great was that people gave these infidels just come and take. If you have a cartel then arm yourselves and fight. If there's too much sand then plant trees. Get the f@%@ on! They bring a cheap unauthentic quality with them...

I am jealous of you you are soo lucky living the dream life (?rich people) i belonge from a middle class thats why i am jealous

Target rich environment. Get out the automatic weapons.

The UK is pretty much like Canada, now. There is only room for the 5% who are rich (the capitalists & rentiers) and the 35% of people on Benefits (the 35% of population who live off welfare paid for by the State using the hard-working tax payer's money). The honest, hard-working middle-class (about 50 to 60% of society) are absolutely screwed and doomed, because all they can now do is keep working their guts out till they drop dead, and never hope to have a decent life. The culture of state-funded Welfare has now gotten so bad that I now live in a street where some 30% of the people who live off Welfare have been given State funded houses, and those houses which are bigger and better than mine (all paid for using my tax money). And I have slogged my entire life (I am 65 now) to pay off a large mortgage on a house that eventually has lower value than the houses that people on Welfare are given on the same Street! Worse still, now that I am approaching the stage where I might need to go into a Care Home, my house (which I worked for my entire life to attain) will have to be sold off to pay for my Care Home costs. While my neighbours who never worked a single day in their life (and whose life was subsidized using my tax money) will again get free state-funded Care Home facility too! It utterly beggars belief. \n\nWhen state-funded Welfare gets to a point that doing an honest day's work actually penalizes you, because all you are doing is funding the lifestyles of the other half of society who wish to sponge off State Welfare (due to the high taxes the Government is forced to impose on the working middle-class to support the 35% on State benefits), then that society can never prosper, firstly because it removes the motivation to work hard, and secondly because some day the Government will run out of money to continuing funding the lavish lifestyles of people on State Welfare. And that is very much now the state of affairs in countries like Canada, the UK, and much of EU. It is an unsustainable model. \n\nBy contrast, in countries like the US, China, India, etc. there is a much greater correlation between hard work and reward. Choosing to not go to work and sponging off Governmental welfare is simply not an option. And that is precisely why countries like these will continue to prosper in the coming years - because they have some form of Meritocracy. Unfortunately, I think countries like the UK, Canada, and most western EU countries are looking at a downward spiral, and there are no easy solutions, because their Welfare model has already created these huge segments of society which depend on it and will not allow it to be demolished - but the day is fast approaching where they will all soon run out of money to continue funding it (most of these countries are already facing huge Debt-GDP ratios, and there is no conceivable way of them coming out of it).

Tax the Rich!!

The world can't fucking live here they need to solve some of their own problems. Somehow The United States of America was able to be a successful concept. We are no more mineral resource rich than most of these other countries. Why can't they ever succeed like we did. Or European nations did. I just don't understand it. One thing I do know is that the entire world population can't be shoved into this fucking country without the entire thing breaking, becoming just like the rest of these Third World shitholes these people come from.

*With all what's going on in this world, what if it becomes a Law that USA citizens who makes a lot of money, have fine homes, and especially Rich would have to take some of the immigrates into their homes, and provide for them until they get on their feet. You all know, there are a lot of Rich white people in USA ?? from old money, are able to support these people and write it off as a tax relief. They should start first with Donald Trump and his immediate family. Some of you know I'm telling the truth. A lot of you have guest houses ?️ ?️all over and abroad that they could live in. You shouldn't have to be forced by law to take them in.*

Make Venezuela Great Again! Let them sell their fucking oil US government!!.that place used to be a paradise without poverty..but they have too much oil..they could be as rich Saudi Arabia if we let them

If too many Mexicans come over construction will be done too fast and there will be more houses made and then house prices will drop and this can't happen because I'm rich and I benefit off of limited housing. If hard working people start making houses at near minum range I won't make enough money. Also if Americans find out how much Mexicans and white people have in common such as; farming guns cousins, they will no longer hate them and it'll be harder to keep a 50/5p split in politics then my friends will lose their power of government officials and we would no longer be able to corrupt America with it's own dollar.its the way we do things we eat, complain and make money till we drop, freedom baby.

Why don't they get organized like this and go against there own country mexico is rich the government there has so much money if they can get together like this than they should do it to get there government to give them money food wat the f### and than you here them say viva Mexico when there here how can you say that to a country that treats there own people like animals I'm sorry but we need Trump to come back so he can put the army in our borders cause there nothing here I try to get a job the other day and they told me they only hire Mexicans I'm sorry but Americans first there getting everything section 8 low income housing and we Americans that are here don't get shit I know there hungry but we are too and that's not our problem it's there governments problem don't send Mexico and chille and the rest of them any money if they can't keep there people in line sorry but I'm voting this time go trump

If American allow Venezuela to drill it oil in peace, it will be rich and it's citizens will stay and be safe there. No body wish to leave home

Why they don't use the same aggression getting in our country. Use that aggression against their own country. Fight for their rights. They are lazy. Our country bleed to get we are at. They are poorer countries in rich in what they have. Yet all those people can take over the country that are coming here. There isn't just families coming here. There are mostly men coming here. Most of them are addicts. I know there are some need of help. But I believe it is a very small percentage. I've seen illegals getting drunk and high. Not getting charge with a crime when committed. That sad. America needs to help self first before help any country of their problems. Love and peace ✌

Why they dont do that against the regimen of Maduro in Venezuela? they cross all latinoamerica to do that in other country, and here if you offer work to them, they say; i dont come here to clean restaurants, or washing dishes? I came here to live good and comfortable? I wash dishes, i make prep too, earn 18 per hour, am not rich, but i have my things, these people want everything for free, Mexicans evebody works hard here, i dont now what happens in the mind of the people think in the states everything is free, ?

To clarify these are not Mexicans these people are from the Caribbeans, central ,South America that wanna come here and get rich every fast & easy with little to no work,

Each world is struggling to find a way to supply and stay alive. And the rest of humanity don't cear about life. I believe these people hold a dark secret and it was created to hide the fact that some come from within the earth. Look at them homeless but healthy, more than your own homeless so if there crossing and not on the roads and highways and streets THEN WERE ARE THEY ALL. follow them, some of them don't need help. It's a cover Up to something. They'll let the men in to work and the woman housemaids for Richy rich

You see them there? They be doing better than many of us in 5 years because of work values. So, get up! And get your ass to work. Cheap labor is coming to replace you ?\n\nThe rich love these immigrants by the way

This isn't right. However we benefit form there culture. Taco Bell, Del Taco, cheep labor. They want us to have the real thing! I don't know how it got that way, but their land is fkt! And the land right next door is rich with goods. What would you eventually do? History says this happen here before! Look in any state, and there will be a street with an Indian name, or town. I suggest a redistribution of the world's resources?

Punjabi youth have fascination of going abroad to make money and get rich quick.. and the dealers are making money out of that sentiment.. no-one is enticing them to take on a migration

This is USA last year for financial sovereignty, and all these immigrants are storming to our country thinking they'll make riches. I'll be happy once I see this country collapse

Housing in America is fucked because of capitalism. So remove capitalism and give housing to our citizens first. I am fucking tired of these rich white people buying houses and not living in them just to sell them for 2.5 mill bro ?

Target rich environment

The invasion without the war..how America is diluted into a 3rd world country...on purpose for cheap labor making the rich richer..

i started to wake up when i shared an apt with a rich venezuelan girl and would hear them bashing americans and only hang with venezuelans, their english was terrible , their mindset was nowhere near our culture, and then they would brag about their visas, my last draw was when they voted!!!!!!!!! they didn’t understand shit about this nation and somehow were able to vote!!!!! that s when i ve had enough and started to wake up! it s not only illegals aliens but ALSO foreigners that do have visas/any legal permission to live in here, the system has become a joke!!! a big fat one!!

Sad part is they all believe there is “the American Dream” an reality is there isn’t. Once entered illegally where do they think they will go to some kingdom where they are given everything they need to survive? They will come be homeless and in the system. As it Is, us that are here working and born here can hardly get by and less you have lots of money and are rich there is no dream.

Lmao!! Let’s go Brandon!! Election 2024 more to come!! The down fall and the division of America! Thank you media and social media! The rose of the rich through divide! Woke will wake up sleepy joe! Code words are like onomatopoeia.

White people discrimate against other WHITE PEOPLE - just talk to any descendants of the Irish or Italians who have ancestors who emigrated to US and Canada Even today - rich whites discrimate against poor whites - Yeah, this sounds crazy but the facts stand, - why are Blacks surprised with how they are treated ???

Why can’t the United Nations come together and come up with a physical solution for this people in their countries it’s sad that they have to struggle and go hungry but if we keep getting millions upon millions of people coming in then the economy here will collapse it doesn’t make sense there’s enough resources for everyone but when greed kicks in this happens the gap between poor and rich in the countries down is beyond huge your either dirt poor or dirty rich why can’t people do something .Another thing that pisses me off is if you can’t take care of yourself much at all why have so many kids I understand wanting to have a big family but not if you can’t take care of them

It's ashame that people didn't like Trump and settle with current clowns they got in their now hope they learn something from this will repercussions for a long time the cartels are getting fithy rich hmmmmmm who else also getting paid

Honestly I feel so bad for any immigrant trying to escape the harsh life on the other side, hoping you'll find peace once you leave, it hurts seeing these people, most of them just want a good life, to be able to give that to their kids, Mexico has gone to shit, the rich don't suffer like the rest, they have protection, while the rest have to suffer from idiots who want power, their president doesn't even care about their people, it's horrible, it's not safe for them especially the children, I hope one day they can be happy.
