This is a graphic explanation of a world problem we're all getting our knickers in a twist about. Immigration!!
It's on a downwards,maybe upwards spiral to disaster.

The most cynical anti-immigration presentation I've ever seen.

Unfortunately, facts & reality are meaningless to the liberal community.

Are you kidding? Someone who explains the problem in factual terms is not cynical. It is just truth...

Would this be a good place to debate Religion also?

Watch it again. Last quote; "Let's help them where they are." Help them help themselves would be better.

It's a graphic explanation that migration is not the answer. The answer is to fix what drives them to migrate.
The shear numbers of ppl makes it impossible to accommodate the 3rd world into the developed nations.
I'd suggest you look at through a cynical view your self.
I see no bias either way, migration has limits. No developed country can accommodate another countries population, by immigration.
Have another look with an open mind.

Oh no, another who has missed the point. It's not political, just plain logic, common sense.
Some folks just can't open their minds, they're choked up with single minded cynicism.

Yeah, let's send more of our jobs over there. Perhaps a good dose of birth control might help. There's too many people in the world. Wake up people

Religion & logic are like oil & water. How is it relevant to this issue??

Watch General Wesley Clark's Video on You Tube,,,," Seven Countries in Five Years " ,,,,could shed some light on the immigration problem at least in the middle east,,,,read somewhere that it would take three or four earths to provide the resources for everyone on the planet to live the American Lifestyle and two or three earths for everyone on the planet to live the European Lifestyle or Standard of Living,,,,which could mean we are already at over the carrying capacity of the earth and need to stabilize or decrease human populations which could be done with no violence or harm to anyone.....

Intensive education is the only way with no violence. Too many of the world population are ignorant or in denial, to make any difference any time soon.
Natural attrition takes time, zero population growth is "fairies at bottom of garden" stuff.
Maybe Trump has the idea, Nuke all the 3rd world countries, sterilise the idiots, create stud farms. Hitler had the idea to create an elite race.
None of this will happen of course, very few bright ppl can see it's happening, but it is happening.
Mankind is destined to self destruction. That's my prediction. Watch his space, for a few centuries.

This fellow's argument rests on the false assumption that we bring in immigrants to reduce poverty in the world. I think we bring in immigrants to provide political asylum, to have the best and brightest people from around the world contributing in the USA, to stimulate growth in the economy (e.g., the north was built by immigrants before the Civil War), and to accommodate families already here.
