Interesting. Just because you make less $2 a day doesn't mean can't live comfortably in another country .

very interesting and true.


i never Thought about that of People who can better their country but end up moving to canada or usa to just work along side us.

Actually, the $2 figure is based off of purxhasing power parity so costs are equalised (as much as they can be). Sexond thing is, world remittances by immigrants to their home countries have been increasing significantly in terms of occurances and amounts. Lastly, this video is skewed. I haven't looked up this guy's background but it seems like his agendea is partial if not out right xenopohbic. Immigration is one of many ways to increase global wealth and to write it off completely like he does is retarded.

that guy is an idiot. that presentation is to steer stupid americans into voting against immigration. they should be ashamed of themselves.

Just in case you guys are wondering about the validity of his argument (as a whole):

Beck has also served as the spokesperson of the Coalition for the Future American Worker and authored the book The Case Against Immigration (ISBN 0393039153).

His speech is very much politically driven; which renders his point invalid in my opinion.

look at those dumb white americans shaking their head because of the overwhelming gumballs

in their head "damn thats a lot of gumballs, it looks like too much"
