It's singularly tragic that human beings are prevented from traveling freely on this planet. I have an American and New Zealand passport. I can travel to any country of the world if i want to, solely by virtue of the fact i hold those documents. Yet most people of the world are not allowed into my countries. Simply not allowed. For no reason other than that they come from a country that is economically more poor off than my countries, and thus my countries consider such citizens to be candidates to over stay their visas and work/live illegally.
If i was king of the world i would eliminate all visa requirements. Anyone can travel anywhere and work any job. Chaos would ensue. Vast shanty towns of immigrants would spring up outside of first world cities the world over. There would be water and food shortages. Terrorist gangs would form. Diseases and ill health would spread...in other words, it would be just like it is now already in the third world, only in first world countries too! UNLESS, those first world nations with all the money and power decided to solve the problem by sharing the wealth in the third world countries so that people wouldn't WANT and NEED to leave. The rich nations would HAVE to, unless they wanted to see their countries destroyed by the problems of massive immigration. After all, they got all the wealth from the poor countries in the first place, one way or another. None of that "we worked for it" bullox! No, the people in factories and mines and agricultural fields in the third world worked for it, and you benefited from it, thanx to your friendly local corporation.
In order for there to be rich people, there must be poor people. Why? Because money is a limited resource, by definition. If you print more, the value goes down, and the resource stays limited. Therefore, as soon as one person has more than the average, someone else must, necessarily, have less than the average. Some call this Darwinian economics. Fair trade. Survival of the fittest. Inevitable economics. I call it barbarism and selfish greediness, the lowest common denominator of human existence. I mean, we don't even raise children that way! We tell them to share, and don't fight, blah blah blah, and then we as adults do the exact opposite. We hoard, and then fight over our pile of stuff. And then we have the nerve to rationalize it. Seriously, would you let someone at your dinner table take all the food and run away into a room and lock the door? That's exactly what we are doing as a human race to our human brothers and sisters.
My solution is called "share it or lose it". That's how i deal with children all the time. If there is one ball for 4 kids i say "share it or lose it." If anyone is not sharing i take the ball away completely. Better to share than to lose it, right? It always works. And if there is one kid who just wants to ruin it for everyone else, i quarantine him. Lead him by the ear onto the bench to sit with me and get some healing while the other three kids go "ohhh, i'm glad that's not ME. Sharing is FUN!" That's what i would like to do with G dub. With my thumb and forefinger lead him firmly by the scruff of the ear to the bench for a big fat TIMEOUT. "You don't know how to share, or play fair, and you are killing everyone, so it's time-out for you buster!" It's like water, it has to find its natural level. Right now the economic playing level is artificially and greedily tilted in favor of maybe 15 percent of the worlds nations. So i say, share it or lose it.
FREE THE BORDERS! SHARE IT OR LOSE IT!
and of course, as always...
Bring back god.
