Ayyyyy, that is some shit I could get behind. Start funding NGOs to setup at the boarder and start creating organized militias to send back their countries of origin with the resources and plans to fix their country as well as how to build it into an economically thriving place. I could get behind that.
the only policy that should be enacted is all immigrants and their descendants for the past 75 years get their citizenship's revoked and repatriated back to their native countries.
After 400 years of exploitation, enslavement and unpaid wages of our ancestors. You owe Jobs & compensation. Past wrongs need to be compensated to migrants.
That’s a bunch of his talks. Channel does a great job of tackling controversial topics and cultural biases. If I had to guess these responses are quite often part of the teaching process.
To some degree (and there are varied opinions on the degree) US foreign policy has been responsible for the state these countries (and others) are in. Sometimes it’s a clandestine operation that tried to install a puppet government, sometimes it is mass bombing, sometimes it’s instigating and supporting revolts. Many times this was done for the economic gain of US corporations.
@@9957nite I agree, now let's apply that to the extreme. That will mean whoever pays the most taxes in the country should have their own way with the rest of the population. Absolute genius! I wish I could think like you
@@TechnoMageCreator that tax system was a creation of people like you, more you make more you pay in taxes lets make everyone pay the same tax - $1000 per year sounds good, and if you can't pay you don't get to vote
I am all about helping people. The world is full of poor. My entire family immigrated to the US legally, many worked years to sponsor remaining family members to come here legally. Not a trump fan but his policy of staying in Mexico until asylum was given needs to be put back in place. It was effective. We have millions of Americans that are homeless and living in poverty yet we allow more to break the law. There are laws for a reason and we need to uphold them.
@@allenpoe17 it's just wild to me that people will ignore the basic facts of our own economic situation and act like we "owe" other countries something. Maybe if we stopped sending several hundred billion to foreign countries for proxy wars, we could start to help our own, but we'd never do that lmao.
The house comparison is the only one that makes all the sense. Many people speak of helping others but never allowed another in their houses. Being forced to kick someone out is heart breaking but many times necessary. You can’t save everyone. Every parent knows exactly what I’m saying.
I wish he had actual grown ups come in and give their points of view. Most of these kids only heard their parents or teachers POV's. How about other grown up's from different aspects of life?
This is not a podcast, it is primarily a class, not designed for maximum entertainment. His style of teaching is to have a dialogue with these kids and confront their limited views with real world facts.
Comment sections are weird. I think guy above was agreeing with your, but yet still trying to argue. I suppose sarcasm doesn't come across well in comment sections.
@@imprivate3474 It certainly is. I usually try to throw an LOL in when making a sarcastic comment. Its quite easy to think someone is serious, especially with how utterly insane some people are today. It sucks, I can remember when the World was such a better place, and it certainly had problems back then. I hate to think of where we will be in another 20 years. The movie Idiocracy will be shown to have been a prophecy.
I have lived in 7 other countries and never had the inclination that anyone owed me anything the way these people speak of such... WE OWE MIGRANTS NOTHING!!!
@@fetBit does when we do our due diligence to research the reps seeking election. What comes out of their mouths, should have VERY LITTLE to do with how we vote. But their history, backgrounds, everything but what is said, should have great importance on our decisions.
130,000,000 -140,000,000 isn't much? Rapidly increasing the population by about 40 percent would be a disaster. People are complaining now and we have been averaging 2,500,000 a year since 2021.
he did say "relitively speaking". 130-140 million is nothing compared to 8 billion. Its a lot, its a fcking lot, but again, relatively speaking it is small.
Trump is the first one to have to balls to not try to be PC and just do what had to be done, on many issues. I wish all Presidents would stop worrying about people's feelings and just do what is right for the Country and the World.
After listening to these kids i am even more in favor of raising the voting age to 27 not arbitrarily btw, requiring id and citizenship plus actually paying taxes, being enlisted or retired after paying your dues, owning property or being an employer. This bullshit of gibs me this has ruined this country and will cause way more suffering worldwide than ever before out of shear volume!
Just reminding everyone that this conversation is happening at a "university" level. I get the impression these children don't understand the concept of limited resources.
I imagine the people in the comments sitting there trying to answer these questions and I laugh my fucking ass off. All of y'all imagine yourselves killing it in this classroom like you imagine yourself dunking on LeBron in game 7 of the NBA finals. Fucking hilarious.
@@Blandgelebron usually loses in the finals, should have picked Michael. All we have to do is enforce the laws that are already written. Is that complicated for you?
And us citizens do? The slavery of many kids around the world paid for the lifestyle and a result of 50% of overweight people. Add that in your equation of global resources.
We owe migrants NOTHING! It takes hard work to just live a some what normal life here in America even for American citizens. Life is hard & like all before us here in the USA & acroos the planet you gotta work hard just to live! Why do people feel others should be forced to pay for there needs?
He's a socialist, every problem is due to capitalism in his mind. He all but said the US has infinite resources but we just hoard it all. This is why socialists deserve zero respect.
He is a good representative for the uninformed masses. Good choice to put on stage if the goal is to represent all points of view. The facilitator of the conversation did a good job managing the conversation. This is the situation that we are faced with. People are forming opinions with limited knowledge and disregard for consequences of actions or inaction. He also commented that Biden admin is deporting more than trump admin. Translation. Trump let in less garbage than Biden. The flood of people coming in under Biden has provided a lot more undesirables to deport. This is more evidence that the current policy is not in the best interest the American people. How many of these people that are being deported have broken laws here to then be deported? How many people have been harmed by this? What kind of idiot sites this statistic as proof Biden policy is some how both worse and better at the same time. While holding the trump bad narrative as the measure of other policy. Such nonsense
Yep, nothing at all. If you believe in rights at all, then you must believe no one has a right to your life. Owing people anything that you didn't agree to is a claim on your life, which is a rights violation and anti-freedom and anti-human.
The prof is just babling pointlessly, trying so hard to get the students sucked into his own sense of ethics. I'm not American, but I'd say Americans owe nothing to migrants. From my own experience, I know you, Americans, are generous people. If you can help Jose (and people like him), that's great. But you must take care of yourselves first.
Man i sure wish there was more teachers like this. Encouraging free thought and teaching civil discourse, and how to properly think your thoughts through.
Im not from the USA but I wonder why not to get to some other South American country that does better than Honduras and try to start life over there? Why make such a long trip?
I don't agree with anything these kids are saying, but it sounds an awful lot like what I would have said at their age, and props to this guy for promoting constructive conversation about so many important issues. If we can all realize we don't have to agree on everything, and that having different ideas is a really good thing, then the World will be a much better place.
We need to talk about carrying capacity to have this discussion intelligently. We have only so many resources here, and the more people come in, the less resources we have for everyone. This effects our prices, as well as availablity of money and other resources.
Asylum isn't picking a nation of your choice, it's going to the nearest nation, and seeing asylum. We also NEED to ensure that people really meet the terms of asylum. In the United States, that means "demonstrate that you were persecuted or have a fear of persecution in your home country due to your: Race. Religion. Nationality. Social group. Political opinion". The VAST majority of "asylum seekers" either don't meet that standard, or passed through two or more countries that would have resolved the asylum issue". We need to keep our nation financially strong, and have periods without immigration, to allow assimilation. We are a melting pot, many cultures living under the same idea of America. Not coming here to make us like the country you left, but you coming here, maintaining your cultural traditions, if you want to, but spring the ideals of America ie. Capitalism, Constitutional Republic (not democracy or socialism), "out of many, one".
TIL that most of these students have no business attending university, and that homelessness could be "solved three billion dollars", and " world hunger could be solved with something like six billion". I've watched countless videos on this channel, and the conclusion I've come to is that the barrier to entry to universities is significantly too low.
How some people can't recognise the consequences of adding millions of people to a country's population blows my mind. There is no Western country that has enough housing/affordable housing for the people that already live there, let alone thousands of people coming to a country weekly.
Half the episode is the story about the Honduran that walked over 2k miles in 30 days, and is complete bull! Manuel walked over 66 miles a day, huh? Sure he wasn't shuttled over 99% of the way fro. The Derrian Gap by NGOs? Poor guy really shouldn't have walked all that way.
@@ThePdinvill The NGOs are running from the derrian to the border, and all between. There are over 30 "camps" that provide meals, shelter, and run shuttles between the camps.
If the beanie guy ever grows up he’s gunna be embarrassed that this mannerisms and tone during this debate were recorded. Nothing to do with his opinion and stance.
@GKB.official If you can get to the Mexican side of the border, then you will have everything $$$$ handed to you. Just act naïve about the border crisis and do not bring any US citizenship documentation with you. 😉
I think the one student was absolutely correct...Teach-A-Man-To-Fish! I have Great Sympathy for people, but I can't support all of them financially. Teach them how to take care of themselves. The other student was also correct in my opinion in that you can't just throw money at things. The US government is infamous at wasting money. I think we should spend the money teaching people instead of just giving the money to corrupt governments. Peace, Love!!
An economy is an ecosystem. Too much or too little of something can bring it down. Within an economy population is very important. If the population grows faster than the jobs that provide a living wage it will all crumble. Immigration must be monitored in order to secure the economy, therefore at times immigration must be reduced and at others increased. I am not a utilitarian that thinks only of numbers, I make this point from the social perspective. If the economy suffers so do all those from the middle to lower economic stratus of the society.
The irony of this is that every person in that hall is wearing, using and buying a product manufactured in a factory that's in a country that has near deplorable working conditions. Think any of the individuals in the hall are going to change that fact?? NOPE!!! Legal immigration has a process and rules. You want access to th eUS or any country for that matter, you follow the process and the rules. It's that simple. No matter how long it takes to gain access. The needs of the many (residents) outweigh the needs of the few (immigrants).
Maybe somebody could show them the Live Aid concert that didn't do S to fix the problem. We send Billions south of the border and yet the problems remain. Beanie hat boy is the type of graduate that will find the real world is very hard and he won't get by with his smugness.
I enjoy these classes. While it would be great is going deeper in the resolution of the current issue, causes these young adults to critically think is what we should be doing, regardless of your political affiliation. You never know when critical thinking can turn into innovative ideas and we should encourage that. We should also encourage thinking the ideas through too, though.
Dude say he grew up in the USA just by luck. Nope, his ancestors worked and followed the proper laws to come here. Jose Manuel went through 10 countries to get here and says here I am, take care of me and my family. He didn't stay at any of the other countries because that's not how immigration works. He refuses to try and make his homeland better so how will he make this country any better. Just because you think you deserve to get whatever you want; it is not so. Even at Woke Disney you have to wait your turn. You may get away with line skipping once and awhile but eventually you will be removed from the park.
I think Dr. Sam Richards should only have volunteers that are paying for their education (NOT ON SCHORSHIP OR PARENTS PAY FOR SCHOOLING). Real life punishment vs giving.
it wasn't luck I was born in America. my family showed up here hundreds of years ago to tame a wild land when Latin America was way more advanced the the U.S. not luck planning generations ago is why I was born in America
Professor please discuss how war is the way of mankind it is engrained in our biology > The Othering’ is group think. Stop saying we destroyed another country therefore we owe them, the fact is if you can’t defend your country and values then you’re not going to keep it. The backlash is coming and it’s going to get ugly.
This may be a HARSH view - but UNTIL we can effectively "fix" our immigration procedures and our borders, we shouldn't grant asylum or help to anyone. Legal Immigration needs to be re-tooled and re-worked to be streamlined, as well as cutting back on any and all programs that benefit Illegal Immigration. As of now the system is used and abused at large by the World because everyone knows this Country has a bleeding heart. In some cases, many in fact, some rights and programs benefit illegal immigration and immigrants far more than what the average citizen has access to. I understand some people's lives could be in danger, but why is it up to us to do anything about it when there are so many problems here already.
This is an ongoing problem that will not be fixed by letting in 2x or 3x more immigrants and only increase the problems here because it is not possible it integrate that many people effectively. An excellent example of the problem is the “gum ball” immigration video that is about 10 years old and available on RU-vid.
People traveled 4-6 months to get from Missouri to Oregon. 30 days? that is nothing in comparison. Sounds like a bit of hitchhiking. Sure there was a few stores to get water and food along the way also.
aside from the class warfare aspect-we also need to address the cultural differences, voting patterns, etc. chicago and ny got a small percentage and fell apart. BUT the argument that mexico isnt a crap hole thats dangerous, the reason he needs to come here, while also defending that it isnt a crap hole...what is the truth to this?
We need stronger boarders (like other countries). We need to fix our issues……better health care, lower cost of college, gas prices. We are a mess. We need to help Americans first & STOP giving free stuff to illegal people.
If you're busy feeling indignant because people don't agree with you; you're squandering your time; better spent on dialoguing so that you can actually learn. Your indignation doesn't make your audience look stupid; it makes you look stupid. Right on to the students up here demonstrating emotional intelligence - not taking it personally; not becoming indignant - working hard to try to understand someone else's point of view. Well done! 💪
With all do respect, psychology guy is living in fantasy world. California has spent... well over 20 Billion dollars in 4 years on homelessness... and our homelessness problem is worse than it was 4 years ago... the U.N. world food program was only able to feed 100 million people for one year on a budget of 9.6 billion USD. That is only 1.2% of the world's population with 9.6 billion dollars. I understand the desire to want to help people, but there are very real physical and economic limitations. Otherwise, you swap the system and sink the ship.
😮😮A better way is to improve the LEGAL process for immigrants to come here in an orderly way. Secondly that the immigrant must speak English at a specific level. Illegals however have no right to stay.
At the start of the video the teacher said that he walked from Honduras to California border in 30 day. On the map it looks distance about 4000 km. You cannot walk that distance in 30 days. I wonder why engineering students spend 35 to 55 000$ a year for such a useless college course.
It's unfortunate, but we don't see humans as a resource. Forget illegal immigrants, look at how we treat each other and how society treats its people. Americans aren't raised with worth/value. Work gives a lot of worth/value. We don't make sure all able bodied Americans can have good jobs and encourage them to have them. Prisoners don't work. Homeless people don't work. Give free people work and make those in need or trouble work and everyone wins.
