Thread: What would happen if there were no borders?

  1. Default What would happen if there were no borders?

    Hypothetically, what would happen if there no immigration laws, and all the people of the world were allowed to live and work in whichever country they wanted to?

    How would this affect the standard of living in the developed countries? How much would this improve the standard of living in the impoverished countries? How would this affect global economic inequality? Would it just drive down wages to subsistence levels, with so many desperate unemployed willing to work for anything, and put up with mistreatment?

    Would all the people want to move to the developed countries for job opportunities? Would this mass movement of people cause overcrowding in certain areas where the jobs are?

    Would you support free movement of people across borders, or would you be afraid of it causing high levels of unemployment where you live?

    Mom given bill to clean street after son killed by illegal immigrant driving drunk
    June 25, 2012 – A grieving mother told a South Carolina court she was slapped with several bills, including one to clean the street after her son was killed by a drunken driver last year.
    Loretta Robinson spoke on June 19 of the emotional and financial toll her son Justin Walker's death had on her as the driver Anna Gonzales, who is an illegal immigrant, pleaded guilty in the case. Robinson told the judge she has been unable to work due to the emotional impact of her son's death, and can't pay the bills she keeps receiving from the accident even though her son was not at fault, WYFF reports. "I had to pay to have the vehicle towed," she said according to WYFF. "I had to pay for the vehicle removed and to clean up the street from Justin's blood on the ground."

    Robinson said the $50 bill to clean the street stung the most. "First of all, having to open the mail and look at the charge to the deceased, Justin Darryl Walker -- the deceased! It's just a hard thing to deal with in the context of your child," she said according to WYFF.

    Robinson says she doesn't expect to get any money from Gonzales. The state's victim assistance fund has provided some money, but it primarily covers funeral, medical and counseling expenses. Gonzales, an illegal immigrant who didn't have a South Carolina driver's license, was sentenced to 17 years in prison.

    Kinda funny how, instead of a 'sequester', the Wall Street bankers got bailed out.

    "The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion dollars for the first 42 presidents — number 43 added $4 trillion dollars by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion dollars of debt that we are going to have to pay back — $30,000 for every man, woman and child. It’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic!" - Barack Hussein Obama

    I think pregnant women are sexy.

    So I support partial birth abortion.

    Because I can't afford formula.

    I have a suspicious feeling that weakening the restrictions on the movement of people from one country to another is the first step to getting rid of the borders, and ultimately unifying all the countries into a single world government.

    If this would happen, quality of life in many flourishing countries would diminish.
