Just came to comments to see what experts have got to say.
*What I **_really_** hate about programs like this is their use of cherry picked statistics. While they mention the 2% rise in GDP for every 1% increase in immigration (legal btw, illegal is inverted), they deliberately fail to mention the other side of the equation, which is this: for every 1% increase in population via immigration, there is a 1.8% **_decrease_** in base wages nationwide. That's essentially a 1.8% "tax" on the poorest people here, and that "tax" goes directly to the corporations hiring these immigrants (legal OR illegal), without it ever making a rest stop in the federal economy. It's a direct wealth transfer, and is the #1 cause of income inequality - yet the left wants open borders, with an estimated 22% increase in immigration population the very first yer - that's a direct tax of just under 40% being levied on the bottom 20% of earners every year. That's not just crazy, it's a recipe for revolution.*
are you saying this guy is not an expert?
YES
Agreed. In the early 1970s the price of an average house was four times the annual wage. Now thanks to population increase, most of which is immigration, the demand for housing has pushed up the cost of an average house to 9 or 10 times the average wage.
Any increase in GDP isn't due to immigration anyway. It is due to China's demand for iron ore, coal and bauxite. Immigrants dilute our wealth.
NO...it is a dumpster on Fire....
Hi could you please do a video on legal high skilled immigrants who have to wait for 70-150 years to get their green cards and the suffering they go through.

they are migrant workers who cannot stay permanently

@@moonchase no one cares
You're only giving stats for legal immigrants
Most of the illegals are coming here to work on farms or construction, which boosts the economy. Pretty sure he covered that.
They defined immigrants as anyone not born in the U.S.
@@shaunrosenberg4568 that's still being disingenuous since legal immigrants bring more usually while illegal immigrants take more. They are conflating two groups of people to muddy the waters as it were. www.fairus.org/issue/publications-resources/fiscal-burden-illegal-immigration-united-states-taxpayers
@@josedubois2295 what about legal immigration?
@@cptromero5595 on aggregate legal immigrants contribute more and are selected for based on positive traits such as education and past work experience. There is a large variability in the pool of legal immigrants but overall it is positive.
In the book Melting pot or Civil War the author points out the vast difference between immigrants from their home countries demographics such as the vast majority (~95%) of immigrants from India to the US come from the top caste whereas in their home countries they don't make up more than 10% of the population. They end up assimilating very well into the American system and culture.
A larger portion of the Mexican and Central American immigration is uneducated and assimilates to a lower class culture that largely sits outside of the prosperity they see as a promise of the American system.
books.google.com/books/about/Melting_Pot_Or_Civil_War.html?id=VacnDgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button
The author points out that the larger the immigrant pool and more selective the immigration system for that country, the more likely the prospective immigrant is to be a contributing member of society and is able to integrate into the overall culture successfully.
Love how they always need to clarify and mention when a statistic is from a conservative-leaning institution but never make any mention with its liberal and/or progressive
The global media is left wing here in India also , all have pro immigration approach as they want to sell humanities and liberal dance theory to this immigrant and big companies need to have low skilled worker as they can pay less but once automation they didn't need it as already in us people are leaving low wage job and mass resign what will people do of immigration when this jobs are not there only us housing market will be in a trouble as a 10 dollar per hour working person can't have 3bhk house what will happen in video describe short term negative long term positive but ultra long term after 10 year it would be negative
conservative = usually anti-science or made-up
Progressives believe in open borders. While simultaneous think we are occupying stolen land.
They exhaust social resources
The old 'ageing population' scare! In the 1960s it was common for families to have three or more children and for their mothers to stay home and provide domestic services for all the other members of the family. So the ratio of worker/taxpayer to dependents was 1:4 or more.
In the 1970s, women stopped having so many children and became worker/taxpayers themselves, resulting in an unnaturally high worker:dependent ratio, because a high proportion of the population was still of working age. Now that we have fewer child dependents, why the fuss about a high proportion of elderly dependants?
It is just a matter of supporting older people instead of babies, who are extremely dependent until they are 8 years old. By contrast, many retired people are self-supporting and make it possible for their daughters to be taxpayers.
Guess what it's the 21st century not 1960s things change the system your taking about will never come back it's gone. Just like horse carriages. Are gone. Like living without electricity is gone. Like how imperialism colonization slavery segregation etc is gone. Move on stop living in the past
@@TheAaronChand What a pathetic reply! So you think that we can't learn from our own history then?
@@chriswatson1698 this is why I'm glad Afghanistan kicked your western supremacist ass in the 19th century during the 1st Anglo Afghan war in 1832 to 1842. Hell you still cant conquer them 🤣
The argument for massive amount of immigrants only works when you conflate legal and illegal immigration. For such a smart channel they left out a huge distinction in this breakdown. Suspicious.
ALL THE ILLEGALS ARE WORKNG ANYWAY, AND PAYING IN TAXES, ALL THE CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES ARE HIRING THESE PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY CAN NOT FIND AMERICAN WORKERS, AND MORE GREEN CARDS NOW TO BE GIVEN OUT
It’s not suspicious, it’s their proud m.o. seriously.
Hi, is it possible to share all the sources you've used to produce this content ? thank you
I am a painter I've had my business for a long time I can tell you right now legal immigrants are destroying the wages. It's hard to pay my employees what they're worth because I have to charge so little for jobs. It's very rare someone wants to pay with a job is worth anymore because they know there's someone out there that will do it for cheaper illegal immigrants bed so low and work for so cheap it causes the average payout to drop exponentially. I don't need a study to understand the common-sense aspects of how someone that charges cheaper is going to make it harder for you to charge more
@Gods Watching: I am in IT and have seen it in this profession as well. With other countries like India handing out an IT education for free, then coming here to work for much less than I can, makes my worth go way down. $44k for my field now due to this.
Feels over reals
Well change careers mayne you gotta adapt
Your experience is anecdotal evidence, studies deal with empirical evidence and long term effects
Bad for the worker but good for the capital/ investor, efficiency is good in the long run for the economy, and as wages decrease fewer people will go into like of work,
u should also discuss the increase in crime. Violence, drugs, fraud, u name it.
Nice video and it will take me sometime to sort through it. Have you looked into the meat processing plants as to who they hire and in what percentage. I have had the opportunity to see these workers entering the plant on a work shift. The majority are Latino based on the language heard as they reported for work. Now who worked the plants prior, most likely the locals who lived in the community. Why did they stop working? As a business you want to lower costs, and labor(payroll) is a major part of their operations. How do you help control that cost, you hire those who will work long, hard hours for significantly less money. What happens to those who are now unemployed, they find other work or move to wherever they can find jobs. Let me know when you update your information, research these packing plants, find out where those low wage workers are living and how.
Fast forward to what’s happening now. Americans are quitting these jobs u speak of. They are demanding more and those jobs are now vacant and they cant find anyone to fill them and that makes things go up in price and costs companies money etc etc etc
The overall point is Americans proved immigrants are not taking their jobs immigrants are taking the jobs no American wants to do. The shortage of employees right now would be solved by immigrants. That would help things not be so expensive right now. Without immigrants working and paying money into the system things will only get worse cz wether u think about it or not immigrants even illegal ones pay lots of money into the system that in turn funds all types of things that we all benefit from every day.
@@cortezyvonne Thank you for commenting. This is an interesting response, with many points of view to follow-up. Your comment is one presented before and repeated by others. The base argument is not clearly made when applied in general. If you wish we can exchange valid points each of us have. Have a great day, and again thank you for the response.
Again you're equating legal and Illegal immigration, completely different things.
How?
One is vital to the economy, the other isn't
@@hollyyates554 illegal immigrants make up 53% of the agriculture sector. They make up 5% of the total workforce. How is that not vital to the economy?
They're creating oversupply of cheap labor which keeps working class wages low
Skilled/legal immigrants contribute more to the economy and create wealth and jobs
I like this video, but what's with host's pockets? It seems that he is bearing two or three big screen phones.
Workers pay wouldn't be such a big deal if the price of housing wasn't so high in America and that is actually something that we can take control over by implementing certain housing law reforms laws like property tax raising property taxes raises the amount of rent that property owners ask tenants to pay zoning laws which prevent more affordable housing to be placed in certain neighborhoods
LAND COST IS GOING UP, BECAUSE IN SOME PLACES THERE IS NO MORE ROOM, HIGH RISES AND TOWNHOMES MUST BE BUILT AND LAWS PREVENTING THE "NIMBY" SITUATION MUST BE STRUCK DOWN
Uh, increased immigration will increase housing demand, raising property costs. duh
@@creambot It's true, but a city council can put a cap on how much people can charge for rent in certain areas.
@@kbnice2393 Market manipulation by a central government tends to exacerbate existing problems, especially since the wealthy will seldom if ever lobby for government action that damages them economically. Even still, real estate owners are not making super-competitive margins, so skewing the market with rental caps will lead to significant unintended distortions. If you're setting up low-rent districts, especially those that are underfunded by public funds due to property tax reductions, you set up ghettos and potentially lose entire cities.
My question is, what was the nationalities of those immigrants who started those companies?
Who cares! We get money, people happy!
@@BeaverChainsaw lol😂

A healthy Capitalist economy needs consumers and taxpayers. Immigrant are both. If we had a drop in our population it would cause a financial recession.
Hello CNBC, I would like to know about how BREXIT would happen if there would be no deal in place.
Immigrants are not the cause of wage decline, esp in America. Three things are the main drivers: 1) automation/AI; 2) the decline of labor unions - loss of collective bargaining; 3) larger percentage of income share coming from capital and less from labor.
They are one of the causes.
You forgot to mention the military spending
@@aureliusva capitalism causes wages to decline
2:53 why is he talking bout unicorns? XD
The best option is learn as much as you can about world in your own country and explain it to many people as you can no need to go to other countries for salary,people.
Cheap labor is the answer
Clown
Yes cheap labour is good for the economy
@@HELLO7657 No, it isn't. Immigrants don't lower the minimum wage or hurt average workers wages. Just because they work in mainly lower paying jobs does not mean that wages will fall. If you want to know why your wages and life suck so much more than in the 90s, it's because the cost of living has gone up but your wages haven't because a bunch of rich people lobbied and demolished unions with aggressive anti worker and anti union rethoric. The top 0.01% created all the social ills in the USA today.
@@jonathanjeffrymulyana4390
Not really. They only profit company. Citizen worker are affected. The will be more unemployment to the country. The job worth will goes down if many immigrant taking it.

Soo optimistic 🤣....keep bringing in skilled and unskilled labor until the value of a worker is identical to the worthless paper he/she is “payed” with.....
Well alternatively the industry move to the place with cheaper labour, so which one would you prefer?
I realize you posted this years ago but it's never too late to get educated. I was a house painter in the early 80's earning 18.00 an hour, in 2000 the wage was 12 to 15.00 an hour thanks to illegal immigrants coming here and working for a lot less, they would have a one-bedroom apartment and more than a few would live there sending their money back to Mexico. It was a job I was forced into not doing because it was insulting to me having dedicated my whole life to the trade, I ended up driving a truck. Let them come here, get educated and do your job for 11.00 an hour and see how much you like doing it then.
I don’t think you guys are lying but the tone makes it seem like your talking about the debate on *illegal* immigration. The stats on that are very different.
you cant kick the illegal immigration out. they will face the unfair judging in their home country. the human rights are very questionable
@@zhengzhaomao9904 doesn't that depend on the country? Venezuelans don't even face political persecution usually and theirs is a country in relatively the greatest amount of turmoil in the region.
Jose DuBois such kind of extremely corrupted system has ruined this country!
second generation immigrants? You stated in the beginning of the video that a immigrant “is a person who is lives abroad from where he/she was born.” Thus how can an individual be an immigrant if he/she was born in the country. You made a contradiction!
ikr +CNBC aint getting their shit right
If population increase income, India and China would be the richest people per capita. Note how it talks about educated immigrants and the people coming across the border aren't educated at all. Also Saudi doesn't give any immigrant citizenship. Didn't mention it.

i'm a legal immigrant in france, if i couldn't come legally, i just would have came illegally, because in my country i can't be with another guy, at the end some people are just lucky to be born in countries where people have rights and high standards of living while other have to struggle a little more. the good thing is that now i know how valuable the comfort and the freedom i get in france are, while french people take all this for granted.
I find it irinic that the immigrant known as Edward Snowden is safer in Russia than United States.
it help me to know and to my english essay
fact is, we don't know how many illegals we have in America.........but some estimates place it at between 15 million and 40 million
- the American Community Survey - says there are more than 40 million immigrants currently in the country, and we have individual-level data representing them.
Who else hears the among us emergency alarm at 5:55 ?
Supply and demand is a simple economic concept. Lots of low skilled poor people (the majority of our current immigrants) makes for low wages. In addition the environment suffers as the US population is the most consumptive and has the highest emissions per capita on earth. High skilled educated immigrants may be a benefit , but they are a small number of the total who are mostly uneducated and unskilled. AFA taxes go, the numbers are dishonest. A kid born to illegals is a citizen so the eduction and welfare costs of all those kids, >300,000/years are not counted.
wow, this is not the civ game i want to play
In healthcare dealing with those cultural and language barriers is a major problem. A lot of immigrants I see are also on welfare I cannot imagine they contribute to society more than they take.
Lets see they don't pay taxes undercut legal Americans and send money out of the country. also rarely eat out unless it's a food truck so there's that too.
I was a foreign worker in the USA, I pay federal tax and local tax.lolol
There are more important things than the economy to consider!
Always helps.
4:08 what is your source for this because it doesn't make any sense.
It's like this workers are a resource the more of them there are the less they are worth because they will compete with each other and since anyone can learn to do a job the only real way to be competitive is to do that job cheaper that is the reason why Chinese product is so cheap after all.
It doesn't have to be this way but it is.
oh boy when fox news viewers see this either they click away or curse at the whole video lol
I know right, and when the left see welfare migrants they see communism stupid leftist lol.
@@ninjatroll7041 actually native us citizens normally are the ones who benefit more fron welfare... but nobody brings that up do they now?
@@BeaverChainsaw60% of illegals are on one or more welfare programs, also 70% of Hispanic households are on one or more and the rate is even higher for blacks, you also have to factor in the per capita also to get an accurate answer.
@@ninjatroll7041 but white people normally take up more welfare like" 40 percent of SNAP recipients are white, When it comes to receiving Medicaid, white people make up about 43 percent of recipients, also why bring up blacks and hispanics?
@@ninjatroll7041 also white people benefit more from programs than others, they normally get more out of it and able to get back on feet. Also read that immigrants take up fewer welfare programs than natives(talking about each recipient of health care, not numbers)
yeah it's uptin
The problem is that new immigrants seldom attempt to assimilate themselves to the local culture. It produces social chaos and conflicts, those influences to the state are not measurable sole by economic development.
Perfect response
Thats True, but in the other hand, If they have children they will acculturate much quicker and better than there parents. I can approve that right here. Not being able to speak English and lack of proper financial education are some factors that witheld them(The Immigrant) from assimulating into this country.
In sociology it is called "melting pot" where more than one culture/religion co-exist under same system. All it needs is respect and understanding of other cultures. I know it because I am immigrant myself ;)
The reason chaos is created from these cultural differences is not the immigrants fault. Xenophobes harass and attack immigrants. It is the hate of immigrants which creates this conflict.
Really? You’re going to blame social chaos/conflicts on immigrants? I think Americans already did that between whites and blacks, no immigrants needed there
thank you for your information. Could tell me, is there any migration theory?

@@MyHebrews What about legal immigrants?
@@samajlo4336 I have no problem with legal immigrants. I respect them for taking the time to do things right and being HONEST. I feel sorry when people on the left join legal immigrant and illegal immigrant stats together to make the illegals look more favorable. Here are people who are honest being mixed in with a bunch of low lifes who come up with excuses for not following the laws. The Police officer who was shot and killed recently by the POS illegal is a perfect example of the difference between the two. One a hard working person, raising a family, the other a piece of scum. I also blame ICE for not doing their job and deporting the SCUM before he could hurt this family.
The emerging robotics industries and historical success of immigrant screening largely debunks these claims of immigration benefits.

I have been thinking and wondering something. If it TRULY is not harmful for a country to allow such a thing why is it that EVERY other country in the world makes it very difficult to immigrate to. If it makes the economy etc sooo much better then wouldn't every other country be opening it's borders as well! I have just never thought of it that way makes me wonder.
That's why us is top performing economy recently Canada,uk, Australia, Germany, and many more started accepting skilled immigrants watching us grow.
@@mhvr8508 from my understanding they have a much more rigorous and strenous process and accept skilled migrants and not ANYBODY. They also have better healthcare than we do here. I'm leaving the US and just noticed other countries it is MUCH harder to get into than here. We also don't have free healthcare here but they do in Canada.
@@happysmilez1316 you are wrong it's not that easy to get into us it's rather very easy to go Australia or Canada recently uk as skilled immigrant.america has lot of requirements we need to meet in order to get in.
@@mhvr8508 it's not that easy to become a citizen in those places for average unskilled migrants. In most cases skilled migrants come over through legal immigration. Other countries do not allow you to come into their country and get citizenship without reputable skills I would know be use I've been looking to leave the country. Other countries have better healthcare and educational than we offer smaller prison populations etc and more stringent immigration policies. If a US citizen tried to go gain citizenship in many of the places migrants are coming from they would not be able to do so easily.
So I just wondered why if it's do beneficial the process is made very ardous in multiple different countries that was all.
@@happysmilez1316 i dont know whether us is allowing unskilled immigrants or not but for skilled getting green card is not that easy .for an immigrant to get greencard it takes approx around 20 years wait. And getting citizenship in eu is quiet easy you need to stay for 5 years working that's all.
The president says the border is closed yet we see thousands of illegals pouring across the Rio Grande River daily. I would say that there are some very large holes in our border. The effect is that entry level jobs are going to be hard to find, as for agricultural jobs they may become non-existent. American/legal immigrant young people will get lost in the fray.
True! Trump said he'd fix this but he made it worse.Trump actually gave 32 million visas to Mexicans to come to USA. Let me repeat so you won't think is a mistake. Under Trump Mexicans received over 32 million visas during 2017-2018. A wall can't stop a person that has a visa. There were already 45 million Mexicans living im USA before Trump came to office. 45 mill is not enough already? Why did his administration approve 32 more million visas? While he told you to look to the border where a 100k people caravan was trying to enter USA. Everyone took the bait and looked south. Meanwhile 32 mill taco eaters got a free pass. As a Mexican. Thank you Trump!! You can be my president any year as long as you continue giving visas like hot tamales.
This is just completely untrue. I don’t know if u knew this but natural born citizens aren’t striving to become field workers. Immigrants work lower paying jobs Americans largely aren’t willing to work.
Yet we have a labor shortage?lmao migrants are extremely beneficial for the economy it shifts both supply and demand to the right. It makes it so businesses can hire more workers for cheaper making prices lower and now those migrants can now spend their money making more economic output as a result

What about illegal immigration ?
& bruh Dave : Don't use the imf to justify the fact that in the USA there is an immigration problem and it's not helping this economy but it's helping more white Mexicans.
Law of Supply and Demand. Increase Supply of Workers, decrease their Demand (wages).
There's probably a lot more to this, an increase in supply of workers (via immigration) also means there's more demand for products because there are more people. This results in a higher demand for labor. I'd imagine whether these effects cancel each other out depends on the specific migration scenario in question.
I think native Americans are also immigrants.
True
i dont know what you were pointing at towards the end of he video. no clips to point at. lol

His parents/grandparents are immigrants, he isn't.
A video on "Why do people immigrate to the USA only & reasons behind it"
If, the money is used and spent within the country, the country concerned will not suffer financially. But, if the money earned is remitted out of the host country and this will definitely affect the revenue of the country. Yes, employing foreign labour will reduce the cost. But, if you will to equate in dollars and sense, the money remitted will not come back. Instead, the foreign countries where the migrants come from got everything to benefit. That is how China benefitted by her people working in South East Asia especially the Malay countries(natural resources rich). Hence, there is Bank of China in many countries tapping the wealths of the host countries. Here, is food for thought. If, your things or countries you do not care, someone will come to take away from you. Who is to be blamed?
A lot of hot dog stands by the way side!
To think that an ever increasing population is a good thing in a finite world, you would have to be a madman or an economist.
Economists haven't a clue.
The USA is experiencing a drop in birth rates and that means less consumers. And less consumer means less sales and business. So if legal immigrants come in... then that means more sales and business and also a higer work force. Because remember we live in a finite world and humans die and sometimes don't have enough children for the US economy to experience economic growth
@@BeaverChainsaw Perpetual economic growth is a fairy tale.
@@chriswatson1698 ok, then what's our solution?
Cut immigration. Preserve your own culture.
Immigration actually discourages couples from starting families. Who wants to live with a toddler in a little apartment 4 stories up? Increasing population density is anti-family.
You also need secure and legally binding marriage contracts so that those women who care for their own children themselves do not risk impoverishment because they haven't developed their careers.
Cut immigration. Stabilise the size of the population and then allow it to shrink.
Wrong! The guy first defined an immigrant as anybody living in the US that wasn't born there. Then he said that 40% of Fortune 500 companies were started by immigrants when the fact is that it's started by immigrants or their children.

So awesome: Per the IMF, If we increased the population by 500% (say, a billion), the GDP per capita would go up 1000%!
Thats why US should stop promoting themselves as superpower country. Even I got taught at my elementary days in Indonesia that the US is the superpower country. No wonder people keeps flocking to US.
what's a unicorn
I would like to see CNBC do a piece on why America actually need immigrants 2 work in America and some of the things I have noticed is a lack of affordable housing in some of the areas where the jobs are whether they are service related jobs hospitality or manufacturing the average American cannot live in the areas where some of these jobs are located. However immigrants don't have this problem because the immigrant will relocate to a neighborhood or an area move into a home or apartment with multiple friends or family members that is centrally located near the jobs they plan to work. look at corporate America corporate America's hub for employment is located mostly in cities downtown areas and what they are doing is building condos and apartments in or near downtown areas or redeveloping entire communities right outside the downtown area so they would no longer have to commute in order to get to work. The average worker is not able to afford a home in certain areas and zoning laws prevent affordable housing or low income housing to be built in those communities and this is one of the main drivers of job shortages in some areas it would be funny if it wasn't sad but the fact that certain homeowners don't want multifamily housing in their communities because they are afraid that the price of their homes will go down are actually fueling labor shortages in America.
There are incentives and help for immigrants to start businesses. Theres no such help for non immigrants.
