i recently saw an interesting thing about it, that it actually started with the war of 1812 with veterans getting pensions, iirc, and same with the civil war. but what ended up happening was that the eligibility for the pension kept increasing because the people that were just on the edge of the cutoff complained. so it kept expanding. that's what happens, it grows and grows.

2018-07-08 14:35:08 UTC

I'm a cute ancap pony, now

2018-07-08 14:35:33 UTC

her grandpa was like 80 and married a 20 year old, and then she got the pension when he died, and then her daughter got it after she died

"There have been sporadic attempts to promote global open borders as a viable policy option. [4] Open borders quickly became popular after 1889.[citation needed] The International Emigration Conference held in Rome in May 1924 stated that anybody has the right to immigrate to a different country if they wanted to.[citation needed] Before the 1880s, migration to the United States was not fully controlled. During World War I it became easier for people to migrate from their country of origin to foreign countries.[citation needed] During World War II, countries were looking for many new workers, and Germany issued a guest work program to attract more people to work.[citation needed] Later, in the 1970s to 1980s strict borders were reinstated in industrialized countries.[citation needed] Currently, immigration is more restricted and harder for low-skilled and low-income people to immigrate.[4]"

"Once theyโ€™re here, theyโ€™ll never leave.

This brings us to a fascinating paradox: Open borders promote immigrantsโ€™ return. Take the border between Mexico and the U.S. In the 1960s, 70 million Mexicans crossed it, but in time, 85% returned home. Since 9/11, the U.S. side of the border has been heavily militarized, which has discouraged immigrants from going back. โ€œWe annually spend billions of taxpayer dollars on border enforcement that is worse than uselessโ€”it is counterproductive,โ€ observes a sociology professor at Princeton University. โ€œMigrants quite rationally responded to the increased costs and risks by minimizing the number of times they crossed the border.โ€

Opening our borders is not something we can do overnight, of courseโ€”nor should we. Unchecked migration would certainly corrode social cohesion. But we do need to remember one thing: In a world of insane inequality, migration is the most powerful tool around for fighting poverty."

2018-07-08 21:07:19 UTC

sounds biased, but it does say some things that are worth examination, like the last paragraph i gave

2018-07-08 21:10:08 UTC

Wrong

2018-07-08 21:10:41 UTC

Freedom is the most powerful tool against poverty. Somthing most the countries they are leaving do not have.

```New jackets, new patches, new everything. This is like the people the DNC sent during the campaign to start fights at Trump rallies. Unfortunately, they are wrong about us and dont know that we hate nazis just as much as they do. Try again```
