Why do people want to come to America their country is much more better than ours

They better get control over this otherwise their country is going to have a huge problem like the U.S.

Someone needs to tell them that their country is doing better economically then we are. Literally my Aunt in Mexico is sending money to my Mom here struggling in the US. Roles have reversed. Mexico is now rich, while the US is being crippled by inflation

Those migrants fleeing the violence from their countries better keep moving and go to Canada. Cause in America you can’t even go to school or a grocery store anymore without being shot and killed.

Illegal immigrants already risking their lives getting into a foreign country , why don't they risk their lives in changing the fate of their home country by overthrowing incompetent leaders and changing policies So that they don't have to leave their country for an uncertain better future.

I feel sorry for these people but at the same time they’re country’s need to get there fucking act together. This war torn 3rd world crap can go on no longer. People call the u.s the u.k etc war mongers? Well take a look at this right now. We have tried over the years to put your country’s straight but you didn’t want that help. Same here in the uk we get flooded with Africans and Middle Easterns. Change your country’s and turn them into democracy’s ! Get rid of your backwards medieval ways and maybe your country’s might be atleast better and safe places to live.

There’s a better way. 30% of those ppl maybe had a opportunity in the US and violated it’s terms and got went back or ran back smh I’m Mexican born in the US and this makes me mad. Idk how bad you have you ain’t the only in other countries . We need to help our issues in the US before we can help immigrants.

My ar-15 is locked loaded and I have 10000 rounds. Yall better calm the fuck down because you come to my town acting like that and our local militia and the other 10000 country boys like put you mother fuckers down like a sick dog.

They need to go back to thier country. We got problems of our own. These demorats better wise up

This is a failure of border policy. Bring them over, let them find jobs and make a legal way for them to get to the US for temporary citizen ship or send them to another country if they choose. It’s better to let them over legally and let them work than for them to be exploited or killed.

Oh American American, better mind your own businesses in your backyard before you start more wars around the world, sad country.

I thought y’all said America is a horrible, racist, white privileged, homophobia place…. Y’all better tell these people that are risking life and limb that they are better off in their own country. … well that’s what the left think…

Work together to make your country better!

What I don't understand is ...\nWhy they don't stay in thare own country and overthrow there government and make it better instead of coming to Our country and destroying what little we have left ...\nThat's what's gonna happen. \nWe are all ready pushed to our max. \nWe can't afford the people we got now ...\nI mean who the hell is gonna support them ... We Are that's who ..\nVenezuela chose socialism so they created this monster and now they can't live with it ... \nWhy don't thare citizens take all that energy and anger out on THARE government ?????

It's the same all around the world. Any country that has borders, which is every country on our Earth. People are desperate for themselves and their families. \nI think that the question is not why ? But why would people who are hungry or at risk, not want to be elsewhere, on n order to better themselves and their precious children?

But they will still come out at hearings and press conferences and try telling the people of the country that under their admin national security and border protections are far better under their admin than it ever was under trumps. That they've made strides in stopping illegal immigration and the border has never been so secure. What a joke

People, you don’t think that all that is because of the policies abroad ? If you make it impossible for them to leave in their home country, where you think they are going ?In Haïti for example, look who this government chooses to support : »Ariel Henry ». A guy whom they accuse in the plot to kill our last elected president… You refuse for that country to have its army, insecurity everywhere , hunger etc where do you want them to go? Change foreign policies. Help countries get better and see if it will not be different. Everyone loves their home, everyone. Home is home.❤

https://youtu.be/aBUiOFXZuKY?t=2460\n\nWhat’s more sad then these poor people running from the depravation the stagnation and danger of their countries is the innocent children like in the documentary listed above. Born into this world to be sold for spare body parts and used as sex slaves beginning at the age of 3 sometimes raped so brutally and purchased for this intent by a customer with The intention of raping the baby to literal death. I would give my own life to end those babies suffering and so would millions of others. It’s so sad that NOBODY is helping these children. The military is used to carry out crooked agendas for pervs who participate in such depravity. They spell out loud an clear and rummaged up irrefutable proof that Germany an the Netherlands specifically are allowing this volatile shit! Why can’t ppl with platforms put this info out there instead of stupid drama that draws more hate an division further isolating the innocent that are deserving an worthy of sharing our country. These women (most) and their sons & daughters are the victims not us. Everyone is quick to spout off entitled opinions about what we as Americans deserve, but Until everyone stands up to fight an demand a better life an equality for every human being and animal we will continue to see our reality turn into hell on earth.

All of yall saying your american because it took your family years to migrate cmon these people are less fortunate than you they didint choose to be born in poverty ,whats the difference between you and them they deserve the same opportunity you got ,you are no better then them , the us has resources and opportunity to let these people work amd prosper but instead the us spends thousand of dollars to keep prisoners nice and healthy in jails to provide for the scum of the earth , in my opinion we should deport all the american trash we have behind bars and committing crime and give these men and women who come from poverty a chance to make a living and raise their family in this country

To all the people in the comments upset with poor, desperate, people with no power instead of the American government that has undoubtedly destabilized these countries to the point where their citizens are fleeing to other countries…know that you are angry with the wrong people!\n\nThese people just want better lives for their families! That should cause everyone to question why they want to leave? Is there something we can do to support change in their countries so they don’t want to leave? Can we advocate for that in our politics? Is there something we can do to make housing more affordable? There isn’t a housing shortage, we have 600,000 homeless with millions of vacant homes! Can we advocate for the rights of people over giant real estate companies like Blackstone gobbling up houses and apartments, making them unaffordable before we scream that there aren’t houses for these people?!\n\nThe complete lack of effort around finding a solution is mind blowing to me! Everyone just resorts to basically saying they should all be kicked out!! Why can’t we find a solution? I just don’t get why this is such a controversial issue! Kicking them out or criminalizing them is just sweeping the issue under the rug. It doesn’t solve the problem, meaning after a while they will come back and we will be right back where we started. \n\nI guess I just feel like there should be a little more compassion and problem solving when talking about immigration!

These fkn dirt ppl ain’t taking us serious when we tell them they can NOT enter the U.S. and claim ASYLUM and take legal residence within minutes because u have HUMAN RIGHTS!!! FUCK NO!!! Before y’all come running and crying over here, y’all NEED to take dis shit up to YOUR OWN FKN GOVERNMENT and bring all ur drama to YOUR GODDAMN PRESIDENT!!! Ask YOUR LEADER of YOUR COUNTRY for PROTECTION and a BETTER LIFE!!! Why should AMERICA help you when you extort, kidnap and torture AMERICANS (mostly tourists), especially our WOMEN and CHILDREN!!! Without MERCY or REMORSE, but with CRUELTY and ENJOYMENT, you VIDEOTAPE CUTTING OFF the HEADS of MY FELLOW AMERICANS and POST IT ON THE INTERNET!!! And now u say we AMERICANS have a DUTY to PROTECT YOU and YOUR FAMILIES?!! FUCK YOU! FUCK YOUR FAMILIES!! And FUCK YOUR GODDAMN COUNTRY!!!\nTo ALL of those ppl who are trying to force their way thru our border patrols…. We will NOT welcome you to America with smiles, hugs and flowers… but instead we’ll greet you with LEAD, COPPER and GUN POWDER!

This should be handled at the U.N. Countries that ppl are fleeing needs to investigated and taken over with efforts to put a better person from that country in charge along with the previous officials being placed in jail. This should make gov. Officials think about how they are treating their own country.

It so sad that this administration doesn’t do anything about securing our borders….why? When can we take care our own problems ? What are this politicians doing? Are they even thinking for our future and for a better way of living in this country America ?

Instead of making your country better you choose to just go to a new one smh

Wait so Americans are fine with them illegal going to a country for a better life but they absolutely hate any one who does the same thing to America sounds about right

Why? US is not a heaven. I do not understand the faith that everywhere is better than here ? Buil yourself in ANY country

This is so wrong, disgusting, and sad on so many different levels man ..what the fuck is the world come too...these people can't even survive in their own countries so they try to come to ours...mean while ..ours has been going down the toilet more and faster then people know or realize...addings hundreds of thousands of more broke immigrants is just going to make it worse and harder on every single American and their families, regardless of race .. because guess where the money comes from to pay for these people when we can barely get by as it is? Yup out of our pockets...keep making the broke broker your sick ass people...we are all doomed ..we need trump and we need him now ..we need actual changes...this is not it...they need to take some of our money and put it into better border security and protection for the love of our people and country...and y'all are just letting it go to hell..

The Americans in the comments make me sick for how little sympathy is on display and how racist and hateful y’all are being. I’m not saying they should be let in, but as a child of an illegal immigrant who came for a better life and then worked his ass of to become a legal citizen of this country just for this country to hate him… it’s sickening. You white folk seem to forget your roots here in America for how fuckin hateful you are towards immigrants.

Very sad reality , not all of them are Bad people , poverty due to corrupt government around the whole world ara causing and making illegal migration even worse , and no one those anything to stop corruption, since biblical times , happens all over the world , and the target For those most affected are always countries with better opportunities to grow in every aspect , and better economy etc. Happens in europe, asia, all over the world , sadly there is always people that come to U.S. And just dedícate them selves to be a problem, they the government have been playing this Game , they always come with new ando better ideas to stop this kind of tragedies , as We all can see, Never has been stopped in the history of humanity , Why ? Well lates take a look at history, Will find the reason Why this has been happening since long befote We imagined ! ??

Stop letting these ppl in this is ridiculous already our country is going to shit as it stop trying to house these random ppl from every where and the Americans that need it, look how much the respect our country that they’re willing to invade it cause they can’t have it there way enough is enough these people coming to America living better than most Americans

Work hard and honestly and make your own countries better. Or migrate legally.

happy reality is that no matter how bad it is for them here is always better then their past countries.

we need to start protecting our borders as if this is a foreign country invading us, which it is .if u don't like ur government overthrow it and make a new one don't just run to what u think is a better choice

Go home and make your own country better, don't steal other people's achievement

Joe Biden and the Democrats once a reason this is happening who is going to pay for these people why taxes are high enough I can't afford to keep giving more and more taxes so I can feed and house f****** illegal immigrants better in my country illegally

Why can't they just make their country better? It's not even that big, just start a revolution

Canada is soo weird. University students who spend 100k+ on education and are in the Canadian system are having problems getting residency, whereas shady people who get here illegally or get residency by immoral do it without much problem. I mean not even illegals but some south asians who are literally scamming and exploiting the system, have no problem and then when you take people from very low income class enter your country and who do uncivilized things you are astonished what else you are expecting a lot of them are uneducated who are not civilized, make your screening process better, if you want immigrants due to labour shortages and slow population increase, try to incorporate students and potential people who have more chances to fit your society. This trend will lead to an anti-immigrant narrative. We have seen a similar trend in Europe. They took the worst people in who were problematic in their countries to begin with

They have come to take and destroy your country too. Then they will leave for pastures new once they have. They’re not the type to build anything or to create a better country for them and others, if they did they would have done so already. They didn’t, they just left.

Why can't they better their own country instead of trying to jump into ours? My grandparents were immigrants, but came to the states the right way

Until we help change whats going on in their home countries ,As long as they think they'll have a better life here they'll keep coming. \nWe need to give them reasons to stay in their home country , Give them help to make their Home Country worth living in ! Until then theyll keep on coming & coming & coming...

Canada and others have been scolding us for so long about not being able to provide shelter, jobs and Healthcare to migrants and yet they're squirming when it happens to them. It's all easier said than done. Stop criticizing us when we can hardly survive in our own country. Yall brag so much about how much better it is in Canada and you wag your fingers in our faces that we cannot provide the same for our own people all the time. Yet here they are doing the same thing but I thought you were all so much better and humane than us?!

So why theses people aint stand up for their country instead off running away try and make things better .

They’d rather fight our government to get in illegally than fight theirs to make their country better. \n\n\nMake it make sense

they need to go bk and fight for their own country. they have the same if not better natural resources we do. wth? my family immigrated here fron Greece ?? they came thru ellis island. they came the right way the legal way!

So sad to see people from another country leaving there own mother land . Also i think this people are the one who run from there truth instead of making thing good they just want to escape . Maxican people should learn from middle eastern , african and some asian countries, .\nIndia is the best example of leaving in poverty but dream and fight for a better day’s.

Somebody must explain to them I might be better to stay home and fight then trying to be a burden on a whole country that owes them nothing

Canadian here, and this video is right on the money for some of the most frustrating things about Canada! \n\nOur proudest achievement is our healthcare system, but up until recently, the government has been choking it little by little. Making it so difficult for any Doctor/Nurse to even consider finding work here (and making it impossible to afford getting a medical degree) because you are literally doing it for the love of the game at this point. \n\nEven if you become a specialist in a specific field (which pays really well compared to most careers here) it is unlikely any hospital will hire you. Our hospitals are only interested in making profits by pushing painkillers on Canadians, rather than hiring medical professionals to help fix them. If you become a family Doctor, it is a bit better, because you can open your own practice. But kiss your social life goodbye if you do! The most annoying part of this problem is some people blame all this on the fact that we have healthcare and assume a private American system would be better. Where the real problem is we need more workers and funding into our healthcare to make it better. Not making lives harder for poorer Canadians!\n\nWeirdly enough our Tax system issue didn't stand out as a problem to me until I left Canada and see how taxes are marked elsewhere! It blew my mind that I didn't have to do math when I visited another country and the way we advertise wages is purposely deceptive! In Ontario, we succeeded in getting a $14 hour minimum wage (only in Ontario and maybe one other province). Which sounded amazing until you realize that's $14 without tax... To compare, I was incredibly lucky in Toronto where I found a place for 750 a month and was earning $16 an hour. Sounded like more than enough for the cost of living, but after taxes I was pretty much putting more than half my monthly income in rent. On top of that I had to pay for student loans and other bills. \n\nBottom line, if you are wanting to move to Canada for our beautifully scenic environments, free healthcare, and a stable job? \n\nMove to Finland.

Any other country would just mow them down. It's an invasion. Do better America

Ya they need to put that energy into fighting for their own country and make it better... makes you really appreciate all the men who died fighting for our constitutional rights...

Why doesn’t the USA just go ahead and take over the entire country of Mexico? Or hell, all the way down to the Panama Canal would be even better for America, so much more land for farms, we can control the drugs again, and dammit, Mexicans are hard workers and loyal asf
