Not because the gov doesn’t want it solved lmao It’s because it’s impossible to accommodate a billion immigrants. Learn economics it’s literally how the world works 😅 4:20 is what I'm talking about, for those who asked
Politicians could’ve fixed this problem a long time ago, but they didn’t want to fix it because it’s not profitable for them to fix the problem. It’s profitable for them to leave the system broken.
Yeap agreed, but you have to ask, how many lives killed because of fentanyl & Billions from hard working Americans has been spent to illegal immigrants' luxury hotel, food, legal fees and healthcare? These are vote buying schemes spearheaded by Biden & Democrats to intentionally turn them to voters at the expense of Americans
The govt has sent billions to Venezuela alone. They give millions and millions of dollars to the NGO' who support the migrants. This is all deliberate. The goal is to turn the US into a communist country.
Right, cap the legal immigrant allowed per year, but just allow everyone in if you are illegally entering is a great solution..... Then complaint that immigration is important to our sustainability. Why not increase the cap for legally entering instead?
“Why not increase the cap for legally entering instead?” I wonder if it’s partially due to housing limitations. I didn’t look up exact numbers but it seems we have a somewhat unique issue, in the US, where we have a lot of real estate that’s not developed let alone options for residency & quality of living (eg: Midwestern territory, blank and open for infrastructure development). If the resources were made available for such a project; it would provide a very quick outlet for resettlement, further warranting an increase in the immigrant-count/annum limit. But idk, economics is out of my wheelhouse; wouldn’t be surprised if I was missing quite a few details
A big part of the problem is Latin America. I'm in Mexico and Obrador has OUR southern border here completely open with absolutely no restrictions. It's a mess on BOTH SIDES.
What is your point? Mexico don't have the luxury to spend more in immigration, and even if do, now the south mexican border will be overwhelmed and will make a problem between mexico, Guatemala and Belize
@@linuxsisschannel8602 You didn't understand what I said? My point is that Andrés Manuel López Obrador has MY southern border here completely open. So that's a huge part of the problem as to why there are so many migrants on YOUR southern border. All the Latin American countries here are to blame as well. And right now it will be bye Obrador but here comes his puppet who is sure to win: Claudia Sheinbaum. So it will be more of the same and this will never end. But if you're ok with that then ok..

Immigration is the international movement of people to a destination country of which they are not usual residents or where they do not possess nationality in order to settle as permanent residents
It took me more than 15 years and 10s of thousands of dollars to become a citizen and I have a masters degree in Computer Engineering, an investor, a musician and a family man.

Make it easier please. We need people to keep inflation down.
Hey there 👋 great work! Happy to have you here. Finance degree here; more migrants means higher demand on housing; meaning higher rents and home costs. More people working means a higher demand on a lower amount of goods; causing a rise in all prices. More migrants hurts us tremendously in almost every single way.
@@magicxsquare_ This is not true. You're finance degree didn't teach you enough about economics and labor demographics. As the U.S. population trends towards having more retirees, we need more people of working age to fill in key roles such as nursing, construction, farm work, etc. There's currently a higher demand for these jobs than ever before. Housing would literally be solved if we simply built more homes. Bottlenecks contributing to low housing supply are material shortages, labor shortages, and NIMBYISM. If we block migrants that are propping up our labor markets, we're going to be in for a shitshow in the next 10-15 years when the demographic skews even more towards the elderly and not enough people to care for them / fill in the gaps.
@@magicxsquare_ that might be true under normal circumstances. The aging population and Covid really put us behind as far as a young, working population goes. We need people to work. Until AI, robotics and automation make up for the lost productivity, we will need people to do low skill jobs. This is not even debatable at this point. The question is what’s the most ideal way to get young workers and be able to fill the void that boomers are leaving considering how small gen X is. You need more than finance to see the big picture. Thanks for the kind words by the way and I could be wrong about my entire assessment. Have a great day!😊
@@stevencheng468 hello and thank you for your emotional input; although it doesn’t align with reality. And are mostly speaking from the common left wing conspiracy theories we hear today “not enough people to work”; “not enough people to fill the military”. With the progression of robotics almost all migrant jobs are being replaced. We have chef robots that can now cook every meal; we have robots that can pick every fruit tree and sort it; we also can 3D print houses… The amount of labor required is dropping significantly for low skilled jobs. Unemployment is tremendously good for inflation; dropping the demand on goods causing higher supply dropping all prices. Having people fill every single job is not good for our country and is economics 101. Literally what brought down Roman Empire 😂
@@magicxsquare_ Cool, it's clear that you're viewing this from a political standpoint rather than looking at economics as a whole. The fact still stand that there is not enough people. Let me know when the number of houses built by "robots" exceed the number of houses built by traditional developers. Also you should quit your job since you stated it's "good for the economy." Pretty clear you only read surface level bullet points without any deeper thoughts about the implications or driving factors. Have fun playing with your transformers bro.
As a legal immigrant and a tax payer, it’s insulting to us if illegal immigration takes precedence over legal. Not to mention the current wait times to get a green card on employment based sponsorship. Current estimates are around 20+ years for a majority of the legal immigrants
@@WD00777 You think this is all one side? America has been encouraging migrants to come to the US since the beginning of the 1900s and made no effort to organize migration. In recent decades, American politicians from the left and right have benefited from their never-implemented "plans" for the border and immigration so they have no reason to fix it. Betsy Devos' family adoption organization made lots of money off "placing" immigrant children in homes via government funds. Just like homelessness, immigration is most beneficial to everyone at the top left a mess and until they can't make money off it nothing will change.

CNBC is good at going into every minute detail of the problem without building up to a conclusion. Old media habits die hard I guess. I like the approach of HowMoneyWorks, who proposes a thesis and then argues it.
Our young population isn’t growing because we can’t afford to have kids. You’re not solving that problem by letting immigrants in because in the end we still suffer.
stop believing you can't afford to have kids. A lot of people managed generations before us. My grandma had 7 kids coming to the u.s. in the 80s and all her kids are doing well now. She only had a factory job and did it alone after my grandpa died yougn.

Why are we still discussing illegal immigration ??? illegal immigration is illegal and should be handled by law. by discussing it you are incentivizing illegal immigration and discouraging legal immigration system. Your are not solving legal immigration and path to citizenship for the people that are following all laws, investing here, contributing to community and paying taxes. make immigration cost effective, fix broken immigration system ( by increasing quota or different categories for south america, path to citizenship) and penalize illegal immigration.
It's a relative boom I guess. Booming when compared to the rest of the world, and when compared to what it was like a year ago. Not booming compared to "normal times".

@@KingFergus Illegal immigrants aren't entitled to welfare. Only refugees and asylum seekers get any government help. And those ones are legal. Automatic citizenship only applies to their children if born on US soil. Some immigrants also enjoy special status such as Cubans. But that's it. Nobody illegally in the United States can claim welfare or citizenship. In fact, most illegals keep their heads down to avoid deportation. They live and work under the table.
I just spent 2 years going thru the k1 visa process. The hurdles were insane. My fiance had to fly to the capital and had to return to the photo booth 4 times because her visa pic kept getting declined. i probably spent $5000 and this is without a lawyer. Im a tax payer and it is insane to think i could have just bought my fiance a ticket to mexico city and have her meet me at the texas border. Even when my fiance gets here it will be months before shes legally allowed to work while illegals work immediately. this system is a shame and anyone who supports illegals are insane.
IF you think K1 is insane, try getting an H1B work visa and then get employer to sponsor a green card. It's much easier to fly to the moon than winning a work visa lottery and begging employers to sponsor a green card
And that's why illegal immigration is trending: legal paths keep getting increasingly difficult to complete. It's probably faster nowadays to process an asylum claim with how many legal hurdles our lawmakers keep placing in the path of legal immigration.
@@doujinflip Yes, a lot of people get green card faster claiming asylum and cheaper as well than applying through a job having to beg employers and wait 2-3 years
How is the economy booming when businesses are closing and crime is increasing? How are employers supposed to hire when the skills needed to fill positions are not present and the language barriers exist? How can anyone give all those people jobs? There aren't enough to go around.

Make a good immigration reform that benefits those that truly want to make a productive life here. Start with those that are already here and have not committed any crimes in 15+ years. Give them work permits for 5 years, then residency, then citizenship
The cannot because they make it hell for those trying to do it the right way. Why it takes 1 year to process a naturalization for a permanent resident, or why it even costs 5000$, why it costs students 1200$ to apply for Training permits, its absurd. Specialized workers being awarded permits on a lottery should tell you all you need. Speed up and make it more streamlined for Family sponsored immigrants and Work based ones. They are the ones doing it right and they pay taxes. These are the people who will not use the welfare systems since they have a support system but nope, it takes years in addition to the stupid cost.

When they talk about illegal immigration they keep bringing up the economy. However, there are so many citizens that need help economically, that need jobs. How are you to bring people in, help them get on their feet so that companies can hire them all the while looking over the people in the states who already need help, need jobs! The truth is there's no pipeline for jobs for the citizens already here. Why don't we see these jobs that need to be filled? Why doesn't the news add it on their websites to easily find? But if a migrant comes to the US, the NGO's and etc points them in the direction of jobs that need to be filled??? This doesn't make complete sense at all. Before making it seem like Americans just aren't working to support the economy let's see a push to help the American people.

Nobody, because they're, you know, illegals? Kinda need to be a citizen to vote. And before you complain about lack over voter IDs, the verification isn't hard. If you're a registered citizen in a State, you get one vote for that name. If a name not on the list votes, that's an illegal vote. Also all the conservative states have voter ID laws anyway.
What does it say about a society when there is the acceptance and tolerance of illegal immigration? As a Canadian I would love to live and work in the States but it is hard for me. Likewise it is not cool when the government supports and doesn't deport this illegal behaviour. When you allow this you let the world know you are ok with rewarding bad behaviour.

You act like legal immigration doesn’t exist. When you travel to another country you get to get a visa. Yet you don’t complain to that country that they should change their laws
Legal immigration doesn't exist with a practical amount of paperwork and processing. Applying for legal entry shouldn't require years in advance trying to prove impossibly specific qualifications.
common sense solution is to deport every illegal entry like the rest of the world does, yet only in America your first act of entering the country is a criminal offense we allow you to stay without penalty, and also provide you housing, food and health care, which most citizens of the country will need to work for it, that is the most insane solution I ever heard.

The right to seek asylum was incorporated into international law following the atrocities of World War II. Congress adopted key provisions of the Geneva Refugee Convention (including the international definition of a refugee) into U.S. immigration law when it passed the Refugee Act of 1980. Not only does the US have an international legal obligation to do so, based on the requirement of complying with the object and purpose of the 1951 Refugee Convention, and implementing legal obligations in good faith, it has an obligation to do so under its own domestic law. Anyone can apply for asylum. Normally, however, it is a person who considers themselves at risk of serious harm in their country of origin, or who is compelled to leave their country in search of safety in another country. As a signatory to the 1967 Protocol, and through U.S. immigration law, the United States has legal obligations to provide protection to those who qualify as refugees. The Refugee Act established two paths to obtain refugee status-either from abroad as a resettled refugee or in the United States as an asylum seeker. Similar to a refugee, an asylum seeker is someone who may be in search of protection due to dangers in his or her home country. While every refugee is initially an asylum seeker, not every asylum seeker will ultimately be recognized as a refugee. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services made changes that affirmative asylum applicants must bring an interpreter to their asylum interview if they are not fluent in English or wish to proceed with their interview in a language other than English. Unfortunately, it hasn’t slowed things down.
most ALL the so called "refugees" don't come here straight from war torn countries while others are in fact illegal Economic Migrants looking for entitlements.
we need to pull out of these treaties and international agreements, it's such a stupid loophole that people can exploit to gain free access to our country.
The LEGAL immigration system we have is not that bad if it is followed by all including all states. Some small tweaks could help I guess. The MAIN problem is that isn't happening and one political side sees a bunch of votes in their future if they can just bring a bunch of 'em in and give them voting rights, social benefits, etc... nothing more than those politicians making a play to entrench their political power long term.
But if we don't raise the caps on immigration then it just means there will be more illegal immigrants. We don't have the manpower to process all these people who want to come to the US, leaving them stranded on the border. I agree that drug cartels and smuggling people are a big problem on the border. You fix that by hiring more border agents and immigration judges to determine who should and shouldn't come into the country.
Explain why it can take YEARS at minimum to get a *visa* in this country, let alone almost a DECADE to get a green card for permanent residence. Make legal immigration *practical*.
Meanwhile the other political side sees an endless supply of cheap labor they can abuse and eject at the pleasure of their businessowner constituents, while deliberately not providing "government spending" to staff up and actually process all the irregular entry and visa overstay cases properly.
The basic law of global immigration is, no one has a right to go to any country. Otherwise the Nordic countries would have a billions people instead of 15 million.

One day I had to visit the immigration office to get some work done. Upon my arrival, there was an extremely long line that lasted several blocks waiting outside. Luckily, I asked the security guards and there was a separate line for legal immigrants (with 3 people). The other line was presumably undocumented immigrants seeking asylum. I’m glad I asked and didn’t wait in the wrong line. I guess it’s a dilemma for every (legal) immigrant. While most of us agree that America needs a rule based system, and the rules for legal immigration should be easier, not harder. In the meantime, it’s not the best policy to accept unlimited undocumented immigrants, and those resources should be used to help the legal immigration first. However, we are also concerned about the xenophobia the other side was trying to promote. The leaders from the other side are increasingly hostile towards legal immigrants as well. It’s really difficult for us legal immigrants to survive in America, despite we contributed a lot here.
Right, if anything "legal" immigration has gotten so convoluted that it's becoming impossible to complete. Hence why the trend of irregular entry straight to asylum claim route.
No there are not enough jobs for Americans we still have unemployment. We need to have under 2% unemployment in every state and job to anyone that asks for one
We have plenty of jobs but some jobs have many people who want to avoid those jobs. The fish industry is consistently looking for workers, the farm industry is consistently looking for worker, etc.
@@yasinali3754 Yes, I know about the multiple layoffs. However, know places that struggle to find workers with fair pay. We plenty of job openings but more towards industries or places where people wouldn’t want to work at.
The country that put men on the moon, that could invade a country in the Middle East in a matter of weeks, with the most powerful military and defense spending in the world.. can’t stop unarmed people from crossing it’s southern border…. Or doesn’t want to stop them? If they can’t… why? If they don’t want too.. why? Either question needs answering.
Texas has yall bent over rn taking some licks with these buses until you can learn your lesson that having an immigration policy like the giants offensive line is a bad idea.
If the US decides to let everyone in for free now, THE LEGAL IMMIGRANTS who spent thousands on lawyers and paperwork, years on a list, had to obtain a sponsor and a job prospect, pass a test, and swear their allegiance to the United States MUST ABSOLUTELY receive reparations. I see lawsuits for years!!
I lived in America for 13 years, was a brilliant student, studied economics, a great employee but at the end, I only got my green card through marriage. It was so unfair that it was so hard to get it as an asset to this country while I saw other people jump the line by doing everything illegally. Canada offered me their permanent residency without me having ever lived in Canada because they understood what a human asset is. The US needs to change their system and allow a point based immigration system.
They're not jumping the line as there is no line for them to get into. As you acknowledge yourself. Life as an illegal immigrant is one of looking over your shoulder constantly and many doors and opportunities are closed to you. You're always open to exploitation, you're always at risk of deportation, etc. Would you trade your green card for that?
I think that all the people who want to successfully immigrate to the USA should study all aspects of the country when they are in their homes on their computers and get as much information about the USA before they set foot on American soil because entering the USA as an illegal alien without any sponsorship will make life difficult.

Right, cap the legal immigrant allowed per year, but just allow everyone in if you are illegally entering is a great solution..... Then complaint that immigration is important to our sustainability. Why not increase the cap for legally entering instead?
Well, that's why it is broken and needs reform, but both side won't work together because of politics.
Totally underrated comment
“Why not increase the cap for legally entering instead?”
I wonder if it’s partially due to housing limitations. I didn’t look up exact numbers but it seems we have a somewhat unique issue, in the US, where we have a lot of real estate that’s not developed let alone options for residency & quality of living (eg: Midwestern territory, blank and open for infrastructure development). If the resources were made available for such a project; it would provide a very quick outlet for resettlement, further warranting an increase in the immigrant-count/annum limit. But idk, economics is out of my wheelhouse; wouldn’t be surprised if I was missing quite a few details
But who will vote to ban Tiktok if we switch to immigration reform
You are making too much sense. The fact of the matter is Democrats need more votes to stay in power.
A big part of the problem is Latin America. I'm in Mexico and Obrador has OUR southern border here completely open with absolutely no restrictions. It's a mess on BOTH SIDES.

@@linuxsisschannel8602 You didn't understand what I said? My point is that Andrés Manuel López Obrador has MY southern border here completely open.

Hey there 👋 great work! Happy to have you here.
Finance degree here; more migrants means higher demand on housing; meaning higher rents and home costs. More people working means a higher demand on a lower amount of goods; causing a rise in all prices.
More migrants hurts us tremendously in almost every single way.
@@magicxsquare_ This is not true. You're finance degree didn't teach you enough about economics and labor demographics. As the U.S. population trends towards having more retirees, we need more people of working age to fill in key roles such as nursing, construction, farm work, etc. There's currently a higher demand for these jobs than ever before.
Housing would literally be solved if we simply built more homes. Bottlenecks contributing to low housing supply are material shortages, labor shortages, and NIMBYISM. If we block migrants that are propping up our labor markets, we're going to be in for a shitshow in the next 10-15 years when the demographic skews even more towards the elderly and not enough people to care for them / fill in the gaps.
@@magicxsquare_ that might be true under normal circumstances. The aging population and Covid really put us behind as far as a young, working population goes. We need people to work. Until AI, robotics and automation make up for the lost productivity, we will need people to do low skill jobs. This is not even debatable at this point. The question is what’s the most ideal way to get young workers and be able to fill the void that boomers are leaving considering how small gen X is. You need more than finance to see the big picture. Thanks for the kind words by the way and I could be wrong about my entire assessment. Have a great day!😊
@@stevencheng468 hello and thank you for your emotional input; although it doesn’t align with reality. And are mostly speaking from the common left wing conspiracy theories we hear today “not enough people to work”; “not enough people to fill the military”.
With the progression of robotics almost all migrant jobs are being replaced. We have chef robots that can now cook every meal; we have robots that can pick every fruit tree and sort it; we also can 3D print houses…
The amount of labor required is dropping significantly for low skilled jobs.
Unemployment is tremendously good for inflation; dropping the demand on goods causing higher supply dropping all prices.
Having people fill every single job is not good for our country and is economics 101. Literally what brought down Roman Empire 😂
@@magicxsquare_ Cool, it's clear that you're viewing this from a political standpoint rather than looking at economics as a whole. The fact still stand that there is not enough people.

But if a migrant comes to the US, the NGO's and etc points them in the direction of jobs that need to be filled??? This doesn't make complete sense at all. Before making it seem like Americans just aren't working to support the economy let's see a push to help the American people.
The people in America dont want low pay jobs. These people do.
Let's go brandon
The Cloward-Piven strategy is a political strategy outlined in 1966 by American sociologists and political activists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. It is the strategy of forcing political change to societal collapse through orchestrated crises. The “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, amassing massive unpayable national debt, and other methods such as unfettered immigration, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.
And? At this time one could argue both major parties endorse this strategy.
@@bengaltiger96 who cares, its not a problem any one is trying to so solve, its designed to collapse the USA and turn us into a socialist bunch of people.
Republicans proudly sabotage good governance for political gain. Something about a "small government" ideology despite -- or perhaps because of -- a weak state not being able to effectively challenge the entrenchment of private industry strongmen, whom they're conveniently already in relations with.
@@bengaltiger96they do, seemingly, either knowingly or unknowingly
@@rowbart3095 I'd say there are elements of both in both parties. There are those that want this whole thing to collapse by design (in both parties), and those who will have it happen by their mere incompetence. And hte sad thing is we can prevent both, either through the ballot box or not giving power to the former by not giving them oxygen (I don't mean deplatforming, as I am a believer in 1A, but just ignoring them).
Funny how there's always hundreds of billions foe Ukraine but the US can't afford 500m to sort the border
Because UKRAINE IS FIGHTING OFF RUSSIA TO KEEP PUTIN FROM TAKING OVER HALF OF EUROPE! If Ukraine falls, Europe is SCREWED! We can cope with this!
Ukraine literally gave us almost 1 billion or more just to house their refugees. We don’t even know how the money is being spent.
Cause the Govt is more concerned about Tiktok being a so called national security threat than securing the actual border.
Well when you offer cash to break the law…
Trump is the solution
To understand this issue in its entirety, all you have to ask yourself is "who would these people vote for when they are here?"
ask yourself the question...why is Biden fighting TX to keep the border open. TX volunteers to build the wall, and Biden hates it. I hope people wake up.
Nobody, because they're, you know, illegals? Kinda need to be a citizen to vote.
And before you complain about lack over voter IDs, the verification isn't hard. If you're a registered citizen in a State, you get one vote for that name. If a name not on the list votes, that's an illegal vote. Also all the conservative states have voter ID laws anyway.
It’s not about vote. The plan is much more sinister. Wake up!
What does it say about a society when there is the acceptance and tolerance of illegal immigration?
As a Canadian I would love to live and work in the States but it is hard for me.
Likewise it is not cool when the government supports and doesn't deport this illegal behaviour.
When you allow this you let the world know you are ok with rewarding bad behaviour.
Just walk across the border and claim asylum lol that's what the whole world is doing
Would you cross illegally?
It means there's a big disconnect between the wants of the people (both legal residents and prospective immigrants) and the laws defining "legal" entry.
@@Happyllama220Your question is do you want to be a criminal?The answer is no.Anyone who has basic decency and commonsense will refrain from breaking the law .
Tump wouldn't let this happen ... Even here in, the 🇬🇧 migrants are getting hotels and even spending money 😮
Ironically Trump oversaw a record-breaking surge of illegal immigration.
Nobody who cared about this country and its people would let this happen. Biden is a traitor putting American citizens at risk with this open borders b.s.
He did. He literally had the Honduran caravan come in. I’ve met workers who once came in that way illegally but now legal.
Biden is also giving 700 $ a month to each illegal.
why argue about this. Just look at what's happening in Europe, Germany in particular. I think what needs to be done is obvious.
Illegal immigration not immigration
Immigration is the international movement of people to a destination country of which they are not usual residents or where they do not possess nationality in order to settle as permanent residents
@@nieshamccoy9419 ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION is the arrival of people from one country into another country without entering via LEGAL methods. No one is complaining about legal immigration, it's the ILLEGAL aspect that is the problem.
It's also overwhelming americans. And our tax money
Trump 2024 🇺🇸
American with a German wife. Got married April 2016 and she and our daughter joined me in the states in February 2017. Visa process was a pain and cost a lot of money (especially for a military E5 at the time) but we did it and did it right because it was worth it to us. Can't believe this is even an argument in our country when it's not even considered in other places
Democrat here voting Trump over immigrantion
This won't be solved when half the country and the president don't want to change anything.
I lived in the U.S for 2 years and the U.K for 4 years. The U.K caught on quick, hence brexit. The U.S is heading for disaster, they should shut every inch of the border and get the military to monitor every inch of the border. The effects on healthcare, education, housing, to name a few. Im South African and we have the same issue with Zimbabweans crossing our border, not on the scale we are seeing in the U.S, creating more poverty, crime. DEbt at 35 Trillion$$$$
Brexit is why the UK’s economy is struggling now and will be in the foreseeable future. The conservatives sold you a lie and the immigrants are STILL coming.
Had it shut down and trying to get the POS out of office that opened it up.
Brexit has damaged trade and only addressed legal migration though, we still haven't stopped the boats from the Mediterranean, which is a major issue. If people could claim asylum legally, they wouldn't get on boats. I don't know enough about the US system.
The UK is becoming a mix between pakistan and afganistan , very very bad example
Get the National Guard to work in cooperation with the Coast Guard and Border patrol.
God forbid if a European wanted to emigrate there, work & contribute with their tax $ to your system... Visas are declined left right & centre.
It's worse for Indians and Chinese students and engineers.
For Europeans it's super easy
It’s the price you pay
The poorer and more populous the country, the harder it is to convince the American consular officer at the visa window that your qualifications are bona fide and you'll remain in the parameters of your visa (i.e. not overstaying it).
Only Haitians and Venezuelans are allowed apparently
All These Criminal Immigrants Must Be Removed from US and ALL THERE PROPERTY & ASSETS MUST BE CONFISCATED FOR THEFT RECONCILIATION
It’s basically to reduce wages by increase immigration, increase the military cause they can’t meet the requirements for quotas for amount of people, increase political power in their state.
Who would want to defend a country that is so lawless.
An immigrant cannot join the military or vote. Don't make stuff up!
Similar but different problems in Canada. You can't count your immigration numbers so that's a big problem. We can count ours, and its very high, its also a big problem without infrastructure to allow it to keep working.
Blame India Lol.
No immigration....no social security. Old boomers need to learn this.
REALLY? READ THIS: judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/republicans-judiciary.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/camarota-testimony.pdf
I'd give up social security if it meant having a country still.
Blame on your GOP in Congress. No Debate or votes in GOP House
all americans are immigrants
so it’s no problem ❤❤❤
US legal immigration system is totally broken where genuine, hard working immigrants are discriminated based on country of origin😳🙄🤦♂️🥺...Economic, high-skillled immigrants aligning with country's labour requirements and needs should be the logical and practical priority of any advanced, well educated administration of a mature nation like United States!
@vijayrangarajanramakrishna318 As President Obama explained ton us, "Elections have consequences": You elect left-wing Democrats' who open the border and you create a problem. And that is only one of the problems they have created.
All immigrants, legal of illegal, foreign or domestic contributes to housing crisis and stolen wages. IT salaries has stagnated because of large numbers of foreigners in IT. Even Canadian liberal politicians acknowledge this.
@@Sushipapi. You are misinformed. Since NAFTA, immigration from Mexico has steadily declined. Most of the illegal migrants through the southern border are NOT Mexican, but from Central America (mostly the northern triangle) traveling through Mexico. Since Biden opened the border the mix of nationalities has hugely increased. Many are still from Central America, but very few are from Mexico.
@@Sushipapi. I have spent a great deal of time living and working in Latin America, especially Ecuador, Chile, Mexico, Venezuela, and Guatemala. I think immigration is very important for America, but not illegal immigration. I never said that Central America is better--those are your words, not mine.
"RIGHT OF SOIL" also needs to be amended... many people bank on that to come in and remain permanently after childbirth on US soil. Removing it will incentivize many to not come as well. But it may only stop 10% of the overall population coming in.
It doesn't last the lifetime though. Once the kid comes of age or gets provided an alternative guardianship, the parents can still be subject to deportation with like a 10 year ban on reentry.
birthright citizenship needs to end, majority of EU countries and Asian countries have not such thing.
The Old World is made up of ethnostates, that's why. In the whole Western Hemisphere, citizenship by birth is the norm.
@@haihengh Jus soli is the norm in the entire Western Hemisphere though. Largest country that follows the strict Old World citizenship by ancestry model is Haiti.
@@doujinflip well I am Chinese, and those systems never make sense to me, especially when you set up welfare system and allow loopholes like this exist, the welfare system is going to fail eventually. I know a ton of Chinese illegals have been getting free government money for decades, and Chinese are not even 1% of the entire illegal immigrant population.
In the United States, we have a liberals problem.
Donald trump USA
Republicans blocked the vote on a republican led Bill that liberal Biden promised to sign. The orange turnip wants America to fail so his campaign can succeed. Now that's sick.
Yes but if we didn't have any liberals e would still have children working in factories, no weekeends, no clean food and drug act, and of course slavery.
Conservatives are SICK SICK
Notice, they are fat! They are not starving and poor! They have shoes. They have cell phones!!
They’re lazy as hell too.
Its a lot easier to complain about the problem than it is to find a common sense solution.
You act like legal immigration doesn’t exist. When you travel to another country you get to get a visa. Yet you don’t complain to that country that they should change their laws
@@rickysampson8759no he know their is an issue but no one wants to solve it
Legal immigration doesn't exist with a practical amount of paperwork and processing. Applying for legal entry shouldn't require years in advance trying to prove impossibly specific qualifications.
common sense solution is to deport every illegal entry like the rest of the world does, yet only in America your first act of entering the country is a criminal offense we allow you to stay without penalty, and also provide you housing, food and health care, which most citizens of the country will need to work for it, that is the most insane solution I ever heard.
Easy fix close the border until you catch up.....DONE
We're not funding the _paid government staffers_ required to process the current backlog. That's why irregular entry has become so popular.
@@doujinflipWhat backlog? Just don't let them in to begin with.
The backlog where the wait to _get in line_ at a US embassy for a _tourist_ visa is now more than a year. Imagine how much worse the process is for those wanting to legally move here.
"Just .2% of those who try for the diversity lottery are selected" Saying it like that is dishonest because it gives a false impression that it's rare. This diversity lottery allows up to 50,000 people in a year. That's not a small number. US immigration is on the easier side compared in terms of rules to most other western nations; our system is just really overloaded.
Fr I don’t get how people watch this and don’t get that aspect. It’s not that we aren’t trying😭
I live abroad and am trying to get my wife a green card. She is the mother of a us citizen with no criminal record and the process takes an unbelievably long time and is very expensive
If you are extremely poor and seeking out a better life, then WHY ARE YOU HAVING KIDS? It's extremely selfish to put children through all of this.
I’m worried about the poor Black & White folks alraedy here!
The right to seek asylum was incorporated into international law following the atrocities of World War II. Congress adopted key provisions of the Geneva Refugee Convention (including the international definition of a refugee) into U.S. immigration law when it passed the Refugee Act of 1980. Not only does the US have an international legal obligation to do so, based on the requirement of complying with the object and purpose of the 1951 Refugee Convention, and implementing legal obligations in good faith, it has an obligation to do so under its own domestic law. Anyone can apply for asylum. Normally, however, it is a person who considers themselves at risk of serious harm in their country of origin, or who is compelled to leave their country in search of safety in another country. As a signatory to the 1967 Protocol, and through U.S. immigration law, the United States has legal obligations to provide protection to those who qualify as refugees. The Refugee Act established two paths to obtain refugee status-either from abroad as a resettled refugee or in the United States as an asylum seeker. Similar to a refugee, an asylum seeker is someone who may be in search of protection due to dangers in his or her home country. While every refugee is initially an asylum seeker, not every asylum seeker will ultimately be recognized as a refugee. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services made changes that affirmative asylum applicants must bring an interpreter to their asylum interview if they are not fluent in English or wish to proceed with their interview in a language other than English. Unfortunately, it hasn’t slowed things down.
most ALL the so called "refugees" don't come here straight from war torn countries while others are in fact illegal Economic Migrants looking for entitlements.
we need to pull out of these treaties and international agreements, it's such a stupid loophole that people can exploit to gain free access to our country.
The LEGAL immigration system we have is not that bad if it is followed by all including all states. Some small tweaks could help I guess. The MAIN problem is that isn't happening and one political side sees a bunch of votes in their future if they can just bring a bunch of 'em in and give them voting rights, social benefits, etc... nothing more than those politicians making a play to entrench their political power long term.
But if we don't raise the caps on immigration then it just means there will be more illegal immigrants. We don't have the manpower to process all these people who want to come to the US, leaving them stranded on the border.
I agree that drug cartels and smuggling people are a big problem on the border. You fix that by hiring more border agents and immigration judges to determine who should and shouldn't come into the country.
@@PASH3227 there are too much illegal immigrants not working, and too little legal immigrants working hard.
Explain why it can take YEARS at minimum to get a *visa* in this country, let alone almost a DECADE to get a green card for permanent residence.
Make legal immigration *practical*.
@@r1_anon immigrants contribute much more to our economy than you realize, then.
Meanwhile the other political side sees an endless supply of cheap labor they can abuse and eject at the pleasure of their businessowner constituents, while deliberately not providing "government spending" to staff up and actually process all the irregular entry and visa overstay cases properly.
MY BROTHER SERVED IN VIETNAM. HE WAS JUST A REALLY KIND HARDWORKING, person. WAKE UP AMERICANS.
The basic law of global immigration is, no one has a right to go to any country. Otherwise the Nordic countries would have a billions people instead of 15 million.
I’m a legal immigrant who received an advanced degree here, working here and paid perhaps hundreds of thousands of tax dollars throughout my career. One day I had to visit the immigration office to get some work done. Upon my arrival, there was an extremely long line that lasted several blocks waiting outside. Luckily, I asked the security guards and there was a separate line for legal immigrants (with 3 people). The other line was presumably undocumented immigrants seeking asylum. I’m glad I asked and didn’t wait in the wrong line.
I guess it’s a dilemma for every (legal) immigrant. While most of us agree that America needs a rule based system, and the rules for legal immigration should be easier, not harder. In the meantime, it’s not the best policy to accept unlimited undocumented immigrants, and those resources should be used to help the legal immigration first. However, we are also concerned about the xenophobia the other side was trying to promote. The leaders from the other side are increasingly hostile towards legal immigrants as well. It’s really difficult for us legal immigrants to survive in America, despite we contributed a lot here.
Where do you feel pressure as a legal immigrant? Do you live in a conservative state? Or are you surrounded by conservative people?
Right, if anything "legal" immigration has gotten so convoluted that it's becoming impossible to complete. Hence why the trend of irregular entry straight to asylum claim route.
If you’re paying hundreds of thousands in taxes, then you are doing more than just “surviving”
No there are not enough jobs for Americans we still have unemployment. We need to have under 2% unemployment in every state and job to anyone that asks for one

The country that put men on the moon, that could invade a country in the Middle East in a matter of weeks, with the most powerful military and defense spending in the world.. can’t stop unarmed people from crossing it’s southern border….

Crime tourism and giving out visas like candy
You've obviously never experienced a visa line at a US embassy. Right now the wait for an appointment is like 1~2 _years_.
Texas has yall bent over rn taking some licks with these buses until you can learn your lesson that having an immigration policy like the giants offensive line is a bad idea.
If the US decides to let everyone in for free now, THE LEGAL IMMIGRANTS who spent thousands on lawyers and paperwork, years on a list, had to obtain a sponsor and a job prospect, pass a test, and swear their allegiance to the United States MUST ABSOLUTELY receive reparations. I see lawsuits for years!!
Sure. Why not?
It’s crazy that this woman said young population won’t grow and they need migrants. Maybe change the way you pay workers first?
I live in Denver and it is getting flooded with Migrants. It’s a disaster.
I lived in America for 13 years, was a brilliant student, studied economics, a great employee but at the end, I only got my green card through marriage. It was so unfair that it was so hard to get it as an asset to this country while I saw other people jump the line by doing everything illegally.
Canada offered me their permanent residency without me having ever lived in Canada because they understood what a human asset is. The US needs to change their system and allow a point based immigration system.
They're not jumping the line as there is no line for them to get into. As you acknowledge yourself.
Life as an illegal immigrant is one of looking over your shoulder constantly and many doors and opportunities are closed to you. You're always open to exploitation, you're always at risk of deportation, etc. Would you trade your green card for that?
I think that all the people who want to successfully immigrate to the USA should study all aspects of the country when they are in their homes on their computers and get as much information about the USA before they set foot on American soil because entering the USA as an illegal alien without any sponsorship will make life difficult.
Y'all called Tom Metzger, Duke, Withrow nuts for trying to stop this...🤣Here's America's Trophy for Stupidity.🏆
