• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I see a mass exittess from the u.s. citizens that can afford it in the future.
It is quite sad that to live somewhere better than where you were born has a price tag.

Only in the west do some people look fondly on ILLEGAL immigration. Immigration that breaks the laws of the land. In any other country with a proper functioning government you will never find the current administration nor the opposition agreeing to ILLEGAL immigration. They frequently round up illegals and deport them back home.

1. Are there no immigration process for asylum seekers in the west?
2. Are there no immigration process for economic seekers in the west?
3. Are there no immigration process for citizenship change in the west?

The answer is obvious - Of course there are just like all functioning nations on earth.

My hypothesis is - This is nothing more than politics, there are no morality nor principle in this issue. It is only framed as such to have humanities justifications to cloud the politics behind. You only need to look at how the illegals are treated by the people who let them in - poorly. Exploited for politics and then left to be further exploited for their cheap labor.

Synopsis?
Thanks, but if you've actually watched the video, I don't think you could come up with a more clear and concise summary than 'Illegal Immigration Who Really Benefits?' That's worded slightly different from the title and is the point of the video in totality imo.

I hope you watch it... it should be especially enlightening to you.
We’re supposed to include a paragraph or two to give others a heads-up as to the content of videos otherwise we’d simply be posting videos back-and-forth all day.

It is part of the rules of the forum to give a synopsis to any video posted, especially in the OP.

Victor Davis Hanson on immigration. I'm ~~~sure~~~ it will be rational.
I thought it was… more so than the snake oil policy that the unfettered flow of illegals into our country will benefit us.

Feel free to summarize it.
I did. I said he provided four answers to the question. The whole idea is that you could learn by watching the video to see what an expert's opinion is... not read a theme paper by me that could be a misrepresentation. I'm not putting that much work into it when you're unwilling to watch a 10-minute video.

Those being?
  • Foreign governments seeking remittances
  • American businesses and people profiting from immigrants
  • Democrat Party elites seeking new voters
  • Ethnic lobbies claiming historic injustice
