    Im sure the destitute folks of Venezuela would happily let their government be overthrown by old Uncle sam in exchange for a minimal diet of Arepas and perhaps some aspirin.

     

    When one has nothing, it doesnt matter who offers something, as long as its something.

    Yes, the classic coup playbook, destabilize the country, cause trouble and then move in to say you are 'helping' - you should read some history

    Sorry if I offended your feelings about security guards. I quoted one line, which found to be rather comical. I'ts a well known fact that many security guards are sound asleep at 3AM.

    oh please, let's stop with the 'offended your feelings' trope. Because someone doesn't agree with what you are saying doesn't mean their feelings are offended - it is such a non-argument

    Questions like this inevitably bring out the imaginary John Lennon theory of "no countries", where people should be free to choose wherever in the world they want to live, without the restrictions of any local laws.

    The people who advocate such fantasies rarely think through the consequences of the mass migration, from poor and underdeveloped countries, that would ensue. Often the same people decry the deterioration of their own home country from just partially open borders.

    A great theory, that would eventually (in 100's of years) result in a complete melding of the world's population, but at what cost, and what would be the leveling out point? Would academia, science, fascism or religion be the main philosophy? 

     

    I live more in the real world, with experience telling me that open borders will not work at this point of world disparity and unrest. (and disease!) Thailand has found that out, as their previous lax attitudes to border jumpers resulted in the country becoming a haven for criminals and other undesirables.

    Of course, their attempt to become more in control of who enters and stays is typically chaotic, disjointed and even bigoted.

     

    I would report any overstayer who harms me, mine, my bank account or is noticeably harmful to the community at large.

    (Unless such action would result in harm to me, mine or my bank account)

     

     

     

     

    then maybe we shouldn't have a world where countries are ripped off and made poor then - then we wouldn't have this migrant problem, just a thought ????

    I'd Just like to say, Who gives a ..........  

     

    It's quite pathetic how these personalities seem to think they are scoring points by coming out. I guess being hetrosexual is a dieing trend certainly not going to get the publicity by being straight!

    If you don't give a.... then why are you posting? Something to hide maybe ????
