postyX - Maple Syrup & Mayhem #10- The immigration myth

00:00:00.000 Hello, and welcome to another episode of Maple Serb and Mayhem.

00:00:05.900 The public sentiment on mass immigration is rapidly changing, or at least it's being brought to the forefront of all political discourse.

00:00:15.020 I would argue it's always been something the majority of the native population has taken issue with.

00:00:20.620 But with current technology and expanded ways to spread propaganda, especially from the government,

00:00:26.120 most of the normie public has been brainwashed into thinking that diversity is actually our strength,

00:00:32.220 and that society would collapse without the low-skilled, incompatible human slaves that the government keeps flooding us with. 0.82

00:00:41.020 The negative effects of mass immigration from third-world countries on Western nations has become all too apparent, 1.00

00:00:48.020 even for non-academics like myself.

00:00:50.700 A growing body of research highlights significant downsides in economics, social cohesion, crime, and public health,

00:00:58.480 all things we've seen with our own eyes.

00:01:01.540 Drawing from the academic studies, though, reports and analysis,

00:01:04.940 we're going to try to suss out and figure out who this is actually really benefiting, as if you don't already know.

00:01:11.920 So, economic strains, wages, jobs, public burdens,

00:01:16.100 these are all one or many aspects of this mass immigration.

00:01:20.800 Mass immigration floods labour markets with low-skilled workers, 1.00

00:01:24.340 leading to wage suppression and job displacement for native populations.

00:01:28.540 And this is something that they vehemently deny.

00:01:31.480 But, again, if you have eyes, you know this already.

00:01:33.860 You can see it for yourself.

00:01:35.720 For example, research shows that a 10% increase in immigrant labour supply

00:01:40.500 can reduce the native population wages by 3% to 4%.

00:01:43.900 And, of course, that hits the low-skilled workers the hardest.

00:01:48.040 Now, in the U.S., post-1965,

00:01:50.960 immigration shifts toward developing countries

00:01:53.660 have imposed net fiscal costs of around $279 billion per cohort over 75 years,

00:02:00.240 as immigrants consume more in public services like education and welfare

00:02:04.960 than they contribute in taxes.

00:02:07.200 Again, something we've probably all noticed with our own eyes.

00:02:13.020 Now, of course, this doesn't just apply to America.

00:02:15.400 I mean, the U.K. is another good example.

00:02:17.540 Mass inflows exacerbate housing shortages,

00:02:20.720 driving up rents by 1% to 2% for every 1% of the population increase.

00:02:25.300 Canada is another example.

00:02:27.560 This makes life unaffordable to the locals.

00:02:30.960 There was a comprehensive review of over 50 studies

00:02:34.580 that confirmed that these winners and losers dynamics

00:02:37.700 where low-wage natives suffer income drops of up to 10% due to competition.

00:02:45.180 Think tanks like Migration Watch UK argue that this depresses the wages

00:02:49.520 for the poorest and strains services like the NHS and schools,

00:02:53.920 turning societies into islands of strangers.

00:02:56.180 Moreover, broader economic modelling reveals small but persistent negative GDP effects,

00:03:03.920 0.1% to 0.5% per 1% inflow of immigrants,

00:03:09.000 in contexts with poor integration amplifying unemployment by 0.2% to 0.4% for unskilled natives.

00:03:16.760 These pressures fuel inequality, rather,

00:03:19.800 as seen in the Hoover Institution analysis warning of the demographic concentrations

00:03:23.920 that disrupt the local economies without any proportional gains.

00:03:28.860 Now, social cohesion and cultural clashes is also another big problem

00:03:33.340 that is very overlooked, I guess you could say,

00:03:36.580 the erosion of trust and of the identity of the native people.

00:03:40.580 Beyond economics, mass immigration challenges the social fabric. 1.00

00:03:45.500 Rapid inflows from culturally distant regions reduce trust in institutions 1.00

00:03:50.220 by 5% to 10% in affected areas, fostering segregation and ethnic tensions.

00:03:56.000 We see this here in Canada with between the Sikhs and the Hindus fighting.

00:04:00.640 I'm sure other countries have the same, you know,

00:04:02.960 infighting between Arabs and stuff like that and Muslims and all this other kind of stuff.

00:04:07.600 Stuff that would stay back in their country. 0.65

00:04:09.180 So, they're not assimilating and they're actually creating more of a burden 0.99

00:04:13.880 because of, you know, not just on the welfare state,

00:04:16.880 but also on the, you know, policing and enforcement

00:04:18.940 because they bring their ethnic battles here or to the US or UK,

00:04:22.940 wherever they are moving to.

00:04:25.500 And they also, like I said, develop their own, you know,

00:04:28.260 enclaves and their own communities,

00:04:29.920 which is against, like, the whole thing is diversity is supposed to be

00:04:33.760 the antithesis of segregation, right?

00:04:36.000 Is that what they're trying to tell us?

00:04:37.300 But they end up being segregated anyway.

00:04:39.060 Because at the end of the day, people want to be with their own people.

00:04:41.600 And that's, you know, something that they keep trying to, you know,

00:04:43.940 change among us, but it's a biological thing.

00:04:47.200 Humans have been on the planet for millions of years

00:04:48.820 and it's not something that's going to just change by, you know,

00:04:51.420 50 years of propaganda that diversity is good.

00:04:56.440 Furthermore, concentrations or enclaves cause trouble.

00:04:59.300 Immigrants do not spread across the host nation 1.00

00:05:01.960 in, like, a thin, evenly spread out layer.

00:05:04.900 They invariably accumulate in specific localities,

00:05:08.080 like we just said about the enclaves.

00:05:10.080 When the immigrants' absolute numbers in these enclaves

00:05:13.480 pass a certain point, their community achieves critical mass.

00:05:17.500 We've seen this here in Brampton, where they've now,

00:05:20.440 it's all the government officials are Indian,

00:05:23.440 you know, a good percentage of the population,

00:05:25.900 or maybe 80% of the residents there are Indian,

00:05:29.680 and they're now infiltrating all, not just businesses,

00:05:32.320 government, and everything, and pushing their own agendas.

00:05:35.940 Their alien languages and cultures become, 1.00

00:05:37.780 at least for a while, self-sustaining,

00:05:40.220 and then the natives start asking themselves,

00:05:42.280 like, are we still living in our country anymore?

00:05:44.480 And again, that's happening everywhere.

00:05:47.000 In the American sense, by 1950,

00:05:49.400 the Census Bureau projects that whites

00:05:51.640 will constitute only 52.7% of the U.S. population,

00:05:55.900 Hispanics will constitute 21%, 1.00

00:05:58.980 Blacks 15%, Asians 10%, 1.00

00:06:02.040 and the other ethnicities is going to be 1.1%.

00:06:06.100 I don't know, man.

00:06:07.440 I think that's a little low-balling,

00:06:09.300 especially for the Arab population,

00:06:10.800 but, you know, what do I know?

00:06:12.000 I'm in Canada.

00:06:14.660 But in the 1960s, whites were nearly 90%

00:06:17.760 of the population of America,

00:06:19.100 and Blacks made up the rest, 0.98

00:06:20.680 virtually all, of the balance.

00:06:22.180 Asians and Hispanics were very little, 1.00

00:06:24.300 very mere traces of it.

00:06:28.120 Now, in Western Europe,

00:06:29.320 this manifests as political backlash.

00:06:31.860 Think Brexit,

00:06:33.120 which was fueled by fears of uncontrolled migration

00:06:35.400 after 2008,

00:06:37.120 where the cultural differences

00:06:38.480 sparked hostile reactions

00:06:40.500 and rising anti-immigrant sentiment

00:06:42.340 by about 20% to 30%.

00:06:43.880 And it's so funny,

00:06:45.220 because they like to blame

00:06:46.260 the anti-immigrant sentiment

00:06:47.360 on other factors,

00:06:49.500 like extreme right-wing, you know,

00:06:51.880 ideology and stuff like that.

00:06:53.160 Well, where did that ideology come from?

00:06:55.120 Because it's the experience we're all living.

00:06:57.040 Why are so many people

00:06:58.120 coming to this side?

00:06:59.780 Because they're seeing,

00:07:01.340 and it's in front of their eyes,

00:07:02.220 no matter how much you try to brainwash them

00:07:03.840 into thinking that it doesn't exist,

00:07:06.160 people are going to ultimately,

00:07:07.780 hopefully,

00:07:08.520 believe in what their eyes are telling them.

00:07:10.260 And it's undeniable.

00:07:12.660 Opinion pieces argue that

00:07:13.600 mass immigration

00:07:14.280 discourages native birth rates

00:07:15.960 by creating insecurity,

00:07:17.600 perpetuating a demographic cycle

00:07:19.080 that erodes national identity.

00:07:20.760 We've seen this, right?

00:07:21.700 The more the immigrants come in, 1.00

00:07:23.400 the less the native population has kids,

00:07:25.820 likely due to economic factors.

00:07:27.640 And I think a lot of times

00:07:28.880 it's safety factors,

00:07:30.000 like a lot of women, you know, 1.00

00:07:31.580 may not feel safe

00:07:32.600 bringing in a child into this world,

00:07:34.040 and that's kind of in their brain.

00:07:36.240 And a lot,

00:07:37.500 I mean, there's a lot of different things,

00:07:38.580 but I think that's a huge thing about it

00:07:40.080 as well as the cost.

00:07:41.220 The IMF,

00:07:43.840 International Monetary Fund,

00:07:46.700 notes that such mismatches

00:07:48.940 between policies and realities

00:07:50.500 lead to counterproductive outcomes

00:07:51.940 like failed integration

00:07:53.100 and societal fragmentation.

00:07:55.380 Here we are.

00:07:56.140 This is where we have arrived.

00:07:59.020 BBC Overviews highlights

00:08:00.900 how wage suppression and rapid changes

00:08:03.140 breed racism and political shifts

00:08:04.860 as seen in the UKIP's rise.

00:08:07.720 Ultimately,

00:08:08.400 these cultural clashes

00:08:09.200 create critical mass effects

00:08:10.660 where clustered immigrants

00:08:11.620 resist assimilation,

00:08:12.940 altering the host societies irreversibly.

00:08:15.780 Hello, Canada would like a word.

00:08:17.120 That's where we're at now.

00:08:19.480 And one of the biggest disadvantages,

00:08:21.760 one of the biggest,

00:08:22.940 how would you put it?

00:08:26.560 One of the biggest burdens

00:08:27.700 that we're having to deal with

00:08:28.780 because of all this diversity

00:08:29.960 is the crime and public safety aspect of it.

00:08:33.540 There's rising incidents,

00:08:35.160 obviously,

00:08:35.720 and a lot of underreporting

00:08:37.060 because the government

00:08:37.820 is trying to hide

00:08:38.760 the identity

00:08:40.280 or the,

00:08:41.120 you know,

00:08:41.660 background of the people

00:08:43.160 that are committing the crimes

00:08:44.120 because they don't want us to think

00:08:46.160 that these are people

00:08:47.900 that cannot assimilate.

00:08:50.060 One of the most debated negatives

00:08:51.580 is the crime.

00:08:52.900 Immigrants,

00:08:53.360 often younger

00:08:53.900 and from unstable regions,

00:08:55.940 which I think is a cope,

00:08:57.340 are disproportionately represented

00:08:59.360 among offenders

00:09:00.240 in many Western countries

00:09:01.680 because they're committing

00:09:03.000 most of the crime.

00:09:04.300 When they word this stuff,

00:09:05.200 they make it seem like,

00:09:06.160 you know,

00:09:06.420 it has nothing to do with them

00:09:07.900 or their character.

00:09:08.760 They're just being,

00:09:09.600 you know,

00:09:10.280 or being picked on

00:09:11.400 by the legal system

00:09:12.220 because they're just them.

00:09:13.700 Like,

00:09:13.900 that's like,

00:09:17.140 in Germany,

00:09:18.140 the 2015 to 2016 refugee wave

00:09:20.840 led to one to 2% rise

00:09:22.620 in property and violent crimes

00:09:24.240 per 1% immigrant increase,

00:09:26.620 especially among young males.

00:09:30.400 We all know who got imported 1.00

00:09:32.080 into Germany,

00:09:32.740 who got airdropped into Germany.

00:09:35.140 And Sweden,

00:09:35.760 who is next here.

00:09:36.580 Sweden's data shows

00:09:37.280 foreign-born individuals

00:09:38.280 twice as likely

00:09:39.100 to commit crimes

00:09:39.960 with non-citizen inmates

00:09:41.300 rising to 33%.

00:09:43.600 In Chile,

00:09:45.760 Venezuela,

00:09:46.660 and Haitian,

00:09:47.980 inflows correlated

00:09:48.900 with 5% to 7% drops

00:09:50.700 in native student performance

00:09:52.160 due to overcrowding,

00:09:53.640 indirectly boosting delinquency.

00:09:56.340 A U.S. survey, rather,

00:09:57.860 reveals 10% to 15%

00:09:59.440 lower crime reporting

00:10:00.360 in high immigration areas

00:10:02.160 due to distrust,

00:10:03.280 making trust rates,

00:10:04.200 and eroding safety.

00:10:06.320 So what they're saying

00:10:07.040 is that if,

00:10:07.880 you know,

00:10:08.080 people are,

00:10:09.480 I guess,

00:10:09.960 a victim of a crime

00:10:10.940 in an enclave

00:10:11.800 that is,

00:10:12.300 you know, 0.82

00:10:12.680 all black or whatever,

00:10:14.040 the likelihood of them

00:10:15.140 reporting it is less.

00:10:17.080 And that is because,

00:10:18.120 I guess,

00:10:18.400 the people, 0.94

00:10:18.960 if it's another black person 0.97

00:10:20.120 that's the victim, 0.98

00:10:20.820 they probably don't trust

00:10:21.560 the police. 0.92

00:10:22.440 And if it's a non-black 1.00

00:10:23.900 that is the victim, 0.97

00:10:24.600 they probably feel like

00:10:25.700 the police aren't going

00:10:26.720 to do anything about it anyway

00:10:27.640 because the perpetrator 1.00

00:10:28.860 is black. 0.98

00:10:29.860 And that's what they've 0.95

00:10:30.560 been teaching us

00:10:31.200 for the last however many years,

00:10:32.760 at least 10.

00:10:34.540 Now,

00:10:35.000 online forum boards

00:10:36.120 and stuff like that,

00:10:36.760 they also echo this,

00:10:37.880 which is not surprising

00:10:38.980 that they,

00:10:39.700 you know,

00:10:39.900 a lot of the common thread

00:10:41.560 or the common theme

00:10:42.360 in these online discussion boards

00:10:44.000 is that cultural value clashes

00:10:46.220 lead to higher crime

00:10:47.180 in immigrant-heavy zones,

00:10:48.700 which most people 0.97

00:10:50.400 with a brain would know. 0.81

00:10:51.400 It's just,

00:10:51.900 we see it,

00:10:52.800 it's patterns.

00:10:53.720 They're not universal,

00:10:54.680 the patterns,

00:10:55.740 but they are pronounced

00:10:56.700 in mass unfiltered inflows

00:10:58.640 from the third world country.

00:11:00.620 So the health

00:11:01.180 and the broader burdens

00:11:02.080 is also an overlooked consequence.

00:11:04.680 Health impacts

00:11:05.360 add another layer,

00:11:06.580 shifts towards

00:11:07.580 less developed countries

00:11:08.660 have increased diseases

00:11:09.840 like Hep B

00:11:10.780 and this is actually

00:11:12.700 increased in the U.S.

00:11:13.360 by 20 to 30 percent,

00:11:14.920 costing one to two billion

00:11:16.060 annually in health care.

00:11:17.920 The immigration policies

00:11:18.680 can also worsen

00:11:19.380 mental health outcomes,

00:11:20.520 including higher anxiety

00:11:21.460 and depression rates

00:11:22.740 in affected communities.

00:11:23.820 So I would look at the example

00:11:25.700 of the Ohio, right,

00:11:27.500 where they airdropped 0.95

00:11:28.260 a bunch of violent Haitians 1.00

00:11:29.800 in there. 0.99

00:11:30.700 Can you imagine being

00:11:31.420 in a small, you know,

00:11:32.540 little town in the Midwest,

00:11:34.240 Ohio, and, you know,

00:11:35.120 just living your life

00:11:35.860 as you always have

00:11:36.900 and then all of a sudden

00:11:38.100 it's like being dropped

00:11:39.360 into like a war zone

00:11:40.340 that you didn't ask for.

00:11:41.760 So that's definitely

00:11:42.940 got to affect

00:11:43.580 people's mental health,

00:11:44.600 probably some things

00:11:45.820 of PTSD.

00:11:46.580 Imagine if your cat

00:11:47.260 was stolen,

00:11:47.780 that would probably offer

00:11:48.520 some PTSD

00:11:49.360 knowing that they

00:11:50.200 allegedly were going around

00:11:52.260 eating the cats.

00:11:53.400 So compendiums

00:11:55.880 of recent studies

00:11:56.660 compile evidence

00:11:57.460 of these harms

00:11:58.360 across labor,

00:11:59.560 health,

00:11:59.920 and more urging

00:12:00.920 re-evaluation

00:12:01.860 of open policies.

00:12:04.540 So you may ask yourself,

00:12:05.880 because I ask myself

00:12:06.760 this all the time,

00:12:07.480 I get the pushback

00:12:08.580 from people.

00:12:10.080 What about

00:12:10.820 the economic well-being?

00:12:12.120 How does this affect

00:12:12.920 the economic well-being

00:12:14.340 of the country?

00:12:15.440 Because the government

00:12:16.140 keeps telling me

00:12:16.980 that without immigrants, 0.99

00:12:18.480 there's going to be nobody

00:12:19.280 to do any of these jobs

00:12:20.260 and that we're all

00:12:20.820 going to be just lost people

00:12:22.440 not knowing what to do

00:12:23.500 or anything.

00:12:24.520 We're not being able

00:12:24.960 to make a coffee

00:12:25.700 or all this kind of stuff.

00:12:27.160 And in my opinion,

00:12:28.140 this is gaslighting

00:12:29.000 of the highest form.

00:12:31.200 This thought process

00:12:33.380 or this opinion,

00:12:35.360 if you're outside

00:12:36.200 of the government,

00:12:36.840 because the government

00:12:37.320 knows exactly what

00:12:38.100 they're doing

00:12:38.420 and so do the elites.

00:12:39.920 But for the normie,

00:12:41.480 this thought process

00:12:42.420 comes from watching

00:12:43.100 too much mainstream media,

00:12:45.220 listening to the corrupt 0.99

00:12:47.020 and lying government 0.99

00:12:48.060 and politicians

00:12:48.640 and trusting them,

00:12:49.440 number one,

00:12:50.260 and not really understanding

00:12:51.360 how economics works at all.

00:12:53.860 A lot of people,

00:12:54.900 it's the same thing

00:12:55.580 that when people say,

00:12:56.720 well, Canada has free healthcare.

00:12:58.720 Nothing is free.

00:12:59.740 It's not free.

00:13:00.820 It's taxpayer-funded healthcare.

00:13:03.200 So regardless

00:13:04.100 if you think the U.S. is that,

00:13:05.780 in the U.S.,

00:13:06.420 they could have the same thing,

00:13:07.680 but you would pay for it in taxes.

00:13:09.080 In Canada,

00:13:09.500 we pay 60% all taxes,

00:13:11.840 including a lot of us pay it.

00:13:13.220 You know,

00:13:13.800 60% given all the sales taxes

00:13:15.700 and all the different,

00:13:16.440 you know,

00:13:16.660 taxes we're paying

00:13:17.420 of our income towards that.

00:13:18.760 And we're still waiting

00:13:19.880 for, you know,

00:13:20.980 14 hours in an emergency room,

00:13:22.620 16 hours.

00:13:23.720 People are dying

00:13:24.360 waiting in the emergency room.

00:13:25.580 You're waiting 8,

00:13:26.360 10, 12 months

00:13:27.180 for a minor surgery.

00:13:28.520 So that's your free healthcare,

00:13:29.940 which again,

00:13:30.380 nothing is free in life.

00:13:31.340 So that's a big thing

00:13:32.900 that people really need

00:13:33.600 to get over

00:13:34.060 as far as

00:13:34.700 how great

00:13:35.940 our system is

00:13:37.260 and how,

00:13:37.740 you know,

00:13:37.940 whatever.

00:13:38.380 And this is also

00:13:38.920 why the immigrants 1.00

00:13:39.420 want to come here.

00:13:40.360 Like,

00:13:40.660 how many times

00:13:41.820 when I used to work

00:13:42.520 in healthcare

00:13:42.940 would people come

00:13:44.400 and be like,

00:13:45.100 well,

00:13:45.220 we brought them here

00:13:46.000 because they can't

00:13:47.040 get this kind of care

00:13:47.660 at home.

00:13:48.240 Okay,

00:13:48.580 so when did Canada

00:13:49.380 become the,

00:13:50.280 you know,

00:13:50.900 place for the world

00:13:51.620 to come and get

00:13:52.100 the healthcare

00:13:52.680 they can't get?

00:13:53.460 Like,

00:13:53.860 no,

00:13:54.060 I'm not paying for that.

00:13:55.540 The immigration debate

00:13:56.540 should be refocused.

00:13:57.740 The question,

00:13:58.660 the economic question

00:13:59.700 should be,

00:14:00.780 is immigration

00:14:01.520 actually necessary

00:14:02.520 for economic growth?

00:14:03.660 This is the big lie,

00:14:04.760 right?

00:14:04.960 They're saying,

00:14:05.360 well,

00:14:05.460 you guys aren't having babies,

00:14:06.620 so what are you going to do?

00:14:07.700 You're not going to have a pension.

00:14:08.600 You'll have nothing.

00:14:09.820 Now,

00:14:10.080 the answer,

00:14:10.720 and this came from an article

00:14:11.900 I read,

00:14:12.440 the European Conservative,

00:14:13.580 its opinion piece,

00:14:14.400 but the answer,

00:14:16.520 perhaps surprisingly,

00:14:17.280 is certainly not,

00:14:18.940 right?

00:14:19.240 It's not necessary.

00:14:20.980 Immigration does very little 1.00

00:14:22.180 that the host country

00:14:23.640 cannot achieve

00:14:24.620 and probably better

00:14:26.140 than,

00:14:27.500 or rather using

00:14:28.340 other policies.

00:14:30.280 Immigration does generate 1.00

00:14:32.080 the instant population growth,

00:14:33.380 which is what the government's

00:14:34.240 looking for.

00:14:34.760 They're looking for

00:14:35.540 the overall GDP

00:14:37.300 to increase

00:14:38.380 and that's what

00:14:39.000 airdropping a bunch of,

00:14:40.460 or airdropping

00:14:41.260 a bunch of immigrants

00:14:41.860 into a country does.

00:14:42.960 It gives that instant

00:14:43.840 population growth,

00:14:45.160 which makes it look like

00:14:46.260 the country is more successful

00:14:47.780 than it's not,

00:14:48.340 but they never report

00:14:49.220 on the per capita GDP,

00:14:50.720 which is grossly dropped,

00:14:52.900 like crazy.

00:14:54.980 And an instantly larger population

00:14:56.300 can be very useful

00:14:57.200 if you are seizing a continent

00:14:58.580 or fighting a war,

00:15:00.420 at least before high-tech weapons.

00:15:02.340 And this is another thing

00:15:03.220 people say,

00:15:03.720 they'll say,

00:15:04.020 well,

00:15:04.180 immigrants helped build Canada

00:15:05.400 or immigrants did this

00:15:06.800 or they worked with the immigrants.

00:15:08.420 Yes,

00:15:09.000 you know,

00:15:09.300 some of the countries,

00:15:10.460 the leaders,

00:15:11.020 they may have,

00:15:12.000 you know,

00:15:13.120 recruited the help

00:15:14.440 of people from

00:15:15.280 not Native to their population

00:15:16.780 to help them fight a war.

00:15:17.940 They were there for a purpose.

00:15:18.860 It's very similar

00:15:19.660 to what the Middle East

00:15:20.980 does with their workers,

00:15:22.340 okay?

00:15:22.600 They bring in workers

00:15:23.340 to do the jobs

00:15:24.020 that maybe nobody wants to do,

00:15:25.360 whatever,

00:15:25.800 fair enough,

00:15:26.360 but they're not citizens there.

00:15:27.820 They don't have a right to vote. 0.65

00:15:29.280 They don't have many rights at all.

00:15:30.620 They don't even get to,

00:15:31.460 you know,

00:15:32.000 experience the same things

00:15:33.340 as the Native population.

00:15:34.860 So that's where it,

00:15:36.760 like,

00:15:36.920 and they're conflating

00:15:37.740 those arguments,

00:15:38.500 right?

00:15:38.680 Like,

00:15:38.940 even when Canada

00:15:39.600 brought over people

00:15:40.360 to help build the railroad

00:15:41.340 to Chinese and stuff,

00:15:42.020 like,

00:15:42.140 they were not Canadian.

00:15:44.020 And they were never,

00:15:44.860 like I said,

00:15:45.200 they were never intended to be.

00:15:47.240 From an economic standpoint,

00:15:48.600 instantly acquiring more people

00:15:50.660 is not so obviously useful.

00:15:53.220 A country's living standard

00:15:54.260 is expressed by its output per capita,

00:15:56.280 and this is what I just said earlier,

00:15:57.720 not just its sheer output.

00:15:59.200 The economics of Britain and China 0.97

00:16:02.420 had about the same output

00:16:03.880 in the early 19th century,

00:16:05.800 but Britannia could afford

00:16:08.060 to rule the oceans,

00:16:09.720 the waves,

00:16:10.200 while China was starving

00:16:11.140 because the British output

00:16:12.480 was 15 times higher per capita

00:16:14.960 than the Chinese.

00:16:17.280 This argument,

00:16:18.120 we just talked about a second ago,

00:16:19.760 immigrants built America.

00:16:21.560 Immigration enthusiasts

00:16:22.620 always claim this.

00:16:23.640 Well,

00:16:24.080 again,

00:16:24.500 not quite,

00:16:25.420 as it turns out.

00:16:26.140 The colonial stock Americans 1.00

00:16:28.120 had things rolling along

00:16:30.460 pretty well

00:16:31.140 before mass immigration began.

00:16:33.040 The same thing applies to Canada

00:16:34.460 and the other European

00:16:36.860 or Western countries.

00:16:39.180 The immigrants basically 1.00

00:16:39.920 just climbed on the bandwagon.

00:16:41.760 And we see this a lot here,

00:16:42.980 like the Indians in Canada, 1.00

00:16:44.540 especially,

00:16:45.040 like to,

00:16:45.520 you know,

00:16:46.040 stolen valor.

00:16:46.940 They like to claim

00:16:47.760 they built this and done that

00:16:49.160 when,

00:16:50.180 if they helped build something,

00:16:52.180 it was such a small percentage

00:16:53.360 of them that,

00:16:54.020 like,

00:16:54.680 it did not even make it significant.

00:16:57.100 And what about the current,

00:16:57.980 and what about currently

00:16:58.840 with large number

00:17:00.260 of immigrants arriving 0.85

00:17:01.060 who are far more unskilled

00:17:02.940 relative to the host population?

00:17:05.620 Even if they enter

00:17:06.820 the workforce smoothly

00:17:07.820 and cause the total output

00:17:09.640 to grow,

00:17:11.060 their greater numbers

00:17:11.840 must cause output per head

00:17:13.420 to fall.

00:17:14.080 That's just numbers.

00:17:15.500 And if their marketable skills

00:17:17.200 are minimal

00:17:17.860 and their entry is not smooth

00:17:19.500 but causes social stress,

00:17:21.400 rather,

00:17:21.980 it's possible that

00:17:22.960 even total output

00:17:23.800 may not grow much more

00:17:24.760 than it would have done anyways.

00:17:26.620 Even perhaps less.

00:17:27.680 And this is

00:17:28.240 what happens,

00:17:29.420 like,

00:17:29.560 when they come in,

00:17:30.040 they're unskilled

00:17:30.740 or low-skilled

00:17:31.460 and they're not able to,

00:17:32.800 you know,

00:17:33.340 contribute to society

00:17:34.260 in any meaningful way

00:17:35.340 and they end up

00:17:36.240 on the welfare system,

00:17:37.260 right,

00:17:37.600 and social housing system.

00:17:38.800 So that you're now

00:17:40.080 negatively affecting.

00:17:41.700 And if they're involved

00:17:42.500 in crime,

00:17:43.000 that's also,

00:17:43.660 you know,

00:17:43.920 a cost that people

00:17:44.640 don't consider either,

00:17:45.520 the cost of policing

00:17:46.340 and putting these people

00:17:48.360 in prison

00:17:48.780 and the court costs

00:17:50.040 and all that stuff

00:17:50.460 because they're not

00:17:50.880 paying for lawyers.

00:17:51.600 So this is all

00:17:52.840 in the tax paradigm.

00:17:53.640 So really,

00:17:54.220 what is the benefit?

00:17:56.360 And finally,

00:17:56.960 this also came

00:17:58.440 from that same article,

00:17:59.480 the lie that society

00:18:01.140 can only be functional

00:18:02.320 and successful

00:18:04.060 on an infinite growth model.

00:18:05.680 Now,

00:18:07.040 a recent study

00:18:07.680 out of Cornell University

00:18:08.840 is questioning

00:18:09.460 that long-held belief

00:18:10.420 that immigration 1.00

00:18:11.200 is necessary

00:18:12.140 due to declining birth rates.

00:18:14.580 The authors of the study

00:18:15.360 call this belief

00:18:16.000 a broad oversimplification,

00:18:17.900 which is,

00:18:18.360 again,

00:18:18.700 something governments

00:18:19.340 love to do

00:18:20.040 with everything,

00:18:20.660 just broad oversimplification

00:18:22.100 so it allows them

00:18:22.920 to maintain control

00:18:24.040 because it's very hard

00:18:25.460 to understand

00:18:26.940 what the actual,

00:18:28.140 you know,

00:18:28.480 policy is,

00:18:29.420 right?

00:18:29.560 They make it broad

00:18:30.240 so that it's confusing

00:18:31.220 to everybody.

00:18:33.220 They also agree,

00:18:34.340 the authors of the study

00:18:35.540 agree that it's driven

00:18:36.340 more by political agendas

00:18:37.860 rather than actual evidence

00:18:39.240 that this is a successful model,

00:18:42.340 the infinite growth model.

00:18:44.600 Countries with lower

00:18:45.280 negative population growth

00:18:46.360 actually do better

00:18:47.520 on average

00:18:48.500 across key measures,

00:18:49.940 the study notes.

00:18:50.720 It argues that

00:18:51.280 investing in education,

00:18:53.160 healthcare,

00:18:53.680 and smart social policies

00:18:55.220 matter

00:18:55.720 more than just boosting

00:18:57.240 the population numbers.

00:18:58.920 Boosting population numbers

00:18:59.780 only helps the elite

00:19:00.960 get rich.

00:19:01.580 That's it.

00:19:02.040 That's all,

00:19:02.660 the only benefit it has.

00:19:04.200 It doesn't matter.

00:19:04.820 It doesn't make us

00:19:05.500 more diverse.

00:19:06.060 It doesn't make us

00:19:06.560 more accepting

00:19:07.120 and it doesn't,

00:19:07.940 you know,

00:19:08.400 give us this kind of food

00:19:09.640 that we couldn't figure out

00:19:10.400 how we,

00:19:10.860 you know,

00:19:11.120 could eat without,

00:19:12.080 you know,

00:19:12.620 the massive amounts

00:19:13.620 of Indians in here.

00:19:14.860 It's none of that stuff.

00:19:16.120 The only thing it benefits

00:19:17.420 is the rich elite people

00:19:19.160 that want slave labor

00:19:20.500 and that's it

00:19:21.340 and everybody else 0.98

00:19:22.040 can be damned 1.00

00:19:22.620 and get fucked basically. 1.00

00:19:25.040 Older, 1.00

00:19:25.520 well-educated workers

00:19:26.300 with good benefits

00:19:27.100 often contribute more

00:19:28.000 to the economy

00:19:28.620 than young,

00:19:29.340 unskilled workers

00:19:30.100 and they also commit

00:19:31.440 a lot less crime.

00:19:32.540 We find that countries

00:19:34.120 with lower negative

00:19:34.820 population growth

00:19:35.560 perform better

00:19:36.220 on average

00:19:36.980 for all indicators

00:19:38.040 and that even

00:19:38.840 within country time series

00:19:40.580 show that most

00:19:41.400 older and slower

00:19:42.660 growing populations

00:19:43.700 fare better

00:19:44.420 on average,

00:19:45.780 states the report.

00:19:46.740 So, in conclusion,

00:19:50.240 rethinking the narrative here,

00:19:51.600 mass immigration

00:19:52.300 from third world countries

00:19:54.060 to the West

00:19:54.540 brings undeniable challenges,

00:19:56.600 economic inequality,

00:19:58.400 social division,

00:19:59.560 heightened crime,

00:20:00.860 health strains.

00:20:02.920 Well, maybe not all

00:20:04.140 of the effects

00:20:05.100 are negative.

00:20:06.560 Most of them are.

00:20:07.480 The evidence

00:20:08.060 from the Hoover analysis

00:20:09.480 that I mentioned above

00:20:11.060 and even the IMF reviews

00:20:12.760 and crime studies

00:20:13.560 demand that balance policies,

00:20:16.040 you know,

00:20:16.560 for integration

00:20:17.400 and limits.

00:20:18.100 My, again,

00:20:19.180 belief is that

00:20:20.220 there should be none

00:20:20.920 because we're a country

00:20:23.180 of very, you know,

00:20:24.400 intelligent,

00:20:25.240 successful,

00:20:26.200 you know,

00:20:26.640 how do you want to put it,

00:20:28.780 pioneers

00:20:29.200 that built this country

00:20:30.440 so we don't need

00:20:31.140 these people

00:20:31.580 to sling our coffee

00:20:32.480 at Tim Hortons.

00:20:33.260 Like, when I was a teenager,

00:20:34.680 people, teenagers did that.

00:20:36.220 Like, I don't understand that

00:20:37.560 and I think it also goes

00:20:39.000 to the forcing of people

00:20:41.380 to go to university

00:20:42.680 and that kind of,

00:20:43.800 they all kind of came

00:20:44.540 in hand in hand.

00:20:45.260 Like, they really pushed

00:20:46.080 this in the 80s and 90s

00:20:47.640 that, like,

00:20:48.260 you were not going

00:20:49.020 to be successful at all

00:20:50.340 if you didn't go

00:20:51.040 to university,

00:20:51.680 probably more so

00:20:52.200 the 90s and the 2000s

00:20:53.940 and all university does

00:20:55.480 is, in most cases,

00:20:56.600 unless you're going

00:20:57.180 for a specific,

00:20:58.420 you know, degree,

00:21:00.580 it's just,

00:21:01.540 it just pushes

00:21:02.140 liberal ideology.

00:21:03.240 It's a waste of money

00:21:04.020 and then it just makes

00:21:05.180 these people think

00:21:06.460 that they're above

00:21:07.020 working minimum wage jobs

00:21:08.740 so then that gives them

00:21:09.520 the excuse to bring in

00:21:10.660 the hordes of,

00:21:11.800 you know, 1.00

00:21:12.240 shit skins 1.00

00:21:12.600 that'll do it for less 0.99

00:21:13.420 and it also keeps

00:21:14.340 the wages down.

00:21:15.300 There's no denying it.

00:21:16.300 Like, I mean,

00:21:16.660 that's just the numbers,

00:21:17.840 right?

00:21:18.020 Like, if you have

00:21:18.520 a thousand people

00:21:19.200 lining up for one job

00:21:20.300 and they're all desperate

00:21:21.660 for that job,

00:21:22.280 you can pretty much

00:21:22.860 pay them as low

00:21:24.180 as possible

00:21:24.760 and, you know,

00:21:25.780 but if there was

00:21:26.540 only three people

00:21:27.500 lining up for that job,

00:21:29.160 they would have the power.

00:21:30.080 So, as political puzzles

00:21:32.320 mount, ignoring the costs

00:21:33.780 risks deeper societal rifts

00:21:35.380 and what does the public benefit?
