  it's a good thing i'm too poor and stupid to care about people in other countries and their
  problems.

  Am I the only one having a hard time believe that 5.5 billion of the worlds 7.5 billion live in a
  country with a lower average income then Mexico?

  Mexico, shithole that it might be, is relatively well off compared to a lot of dirt poor
  shitholes that have very large populations (think places like india and nigeria, or most of
  Africa for that matter). Though a good chunk of the reason Mexico does even half decently is
  mainly because they share a border with the US.

  I'm not really questioning that so much, Mexico isn't as poor off as it could be, I can grasp
  that much. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe this was done in 1996 correct? at least thats
  what I understood from what I read up on. If that is in fact the case, the world population was a
  mere 5.8 billion. Also, in 1996 china had a population of 1.2 billion. That alone makes it hard
  for me to believe his statement claiming that 5 billion people live in countries that have an
  average income less then that of Mexico, when China has a higher Average income then Mexico (at
  least as of recent, i couldn't find stats about their incomes in 1996). His claims seem so
  outlandish to me from what im understanding I feel like I'm missing something altogether.

  You may be right. I didn't even realize this was that old so I am definately somewhat off.
  However I do think china was relatively poorer back in the 90s, even if it wasn't so bad in the
  cities a lot of the population still lived very rurally IIRC even in the mid 90s.

  Assuming some charts that I found on google images are correct, the GDP per capita in the mid
  1990s for china was around $3000 (in 1990 dollars), where as for Mexico it was somewhere around
  50-100% more at about ~4600-5500 (my calculations could be off though since I did some shit in my
  head to make the results roughly equivalent.) That would at least seem to indicate that it might
  not be off to assume that the Chinese income was worse at that point.

  Hmm ok, that does make a bit of sense but the numbers still seem off. Hes still claiming a number
  somewhere in the 5 billion range but the US has 260 million, bringing down the 5.8 world
  population to 5.5~5.6. This isn't even counting any of Europe.

>> [_] Anonymous 08/12/17(Sat)02:24:28 No.3271774

  >>3271772
  Yeah, that does seem suspect. Well, fuck if I know what's going on. You're probably right about
  the numbers being off somehow.

  I'm not naive enough to believe that immigration would solve world poverty but I don't think that
  it's as fruitless as this guy is trying to make it sound. I think a healthy mix of aiding the
  countries that need help as well as taking some in (and not just the US, any country that can do
  so) would probably be the ideal way to handle this.

  I'm glad someone sees my point, I was afraid I was just vastly misunderstanding the presentation.

  Bah, the point of immigration isn't to help immigrants, it's so bankers have brand new targets to
  saddle massive debt on that they couldn't access otherwise, while the taxpayer gets to cover the
  expenses of the immigrant in entering a situation to take loans from said bankers.

  Mostly for the same reason humans do most of the counter intuitive shit they do, because we are
  built for tribalism, not pragmatic dispassionate reasoning or cost benefit analysis on a global
  scale.

  Probably the same place the stores get their gumballs for their gumball machines, in bulk from
  some company. Probably came in a giant burlap sack or something.

  It would unironically be a good idea to start genociding people in the billions in order to
  consolidate resources so that we may lay down a calculated infrastructure and foundation for the
  future in foreign lands. How I lament that we discovered Africa so early. If we did so later
  there might have been a chance that we'd just kill them all and then turn Africa into a proper
  Asian/European multicultural powerhouse.

  Yeah. That's just what I need. More competition in an over saturated market thanks to h1b visa
  bullshit.

  Or we could stop globalism, stop importing people into 1st world nation's like America, Europe,
  Japan etc... and allow unsustainable nations with population growth problems like Indian, China &
  Africa burn themselves out, we shouldn't pay for their demographic issues.
  I'd still like to help those places modernize and find a stable path for themselves but one must
  as you say consider resources not just in the moment but in the future. Can we really keep
  sustaining ever higher populations without a dramatic boost from new technologies? Probably not.
  The worlds population was under a billion in 1900.
  Now its almost 10 billion.

  Eugenics.
  Overpopulation is naturally dealt with either sickness, predation or emigration.
  We have removed sickness and predation.
  There is a limited amount of space on this planet, one that we cannot extend faster than we
  expand.

  Eugenics.

  I'm not aware of anyone seriously proposing immigration as tool to help impoverished people
  globally. That's a silly argument, and the whole video feels like beating up a strawman.

  >>3271822
  >Eugenics.
  Is a clearly terrible idea, unless you have an extreme level of confidence in your politicians
  and in society as a whole to make good decisions.

  >Overpopulation is naturally dealt with either sickness, predation or emigration.
  Or education and improving quality of life. Which is by far the most successful solution tried so
  far.

  >>3271827
  I want to see you go to Africa, India, Southwest America or South Asia to go educating and
  improving the quality of life of people.

  Also, newsflash: it has worked in western society, then jewish motherfuckers like Merkel and co.
  started opening the flood gates to the considerably less educated and impoverished. Nothing is
  perfect.

  And you could say China is already performing eugenics, although in a very limited fashion and
  somewhat indirectly.
