I mean as someone who knows many immigrants
In Ireland
not just asians, but I've seen a lot of legal africans (usually central) also become hard workers and do well (at least here in canada)
The housing crisis is caused by legal immigrants and others exploiting the welfare system
Illegals just give cheap services and are underpaid
Obviously most legal immigrants here don’t do it
I just mean a lot do
its kind of odd how people see that immigration causes housing chrisis and price of real estate to rise.
and banks value is directly tied to real estate value:
but for some reason people dont seem to be abel connect those two.
but why🤔
_insert libertarian view_ If people started moving to affordable places that still accept their skill set, the real estate values would also normalize
In Ireland I’d estimate only about 3/8 of the exploiters of the housing crisis is immigrants but the rest aren’t. I know someone who’s a bloody pimp who somehow has council housing
And another person who faked being unable to take care of themselves and living in a council house and daughter’s house
like look what happend in 2007 when housing prices started to level out.
because population boom ended
Milton Friedman actually advocated for unrestricted illegal immigration--under the requirement that there is no welfare system--precisely because they would feed labor into the system and not take anything out.
It's obviously impractical and not very humane. And it would still depress wages.
Usually, (legal) immigration is a positive. It's like having a positive birth rate of *only* people who are wealthy or motivated enough to move.
The housing price rise is due to demand.
The real challenge is figuring out how to defeat the tendency of industry to cluster in excess.
Usually
The internet was supposed to be the lifeline to the rural communities due to telecommuting, but instead it seems to accelerated population concentration.
In Ireland’s case it is. But the bloody government is allowing some of them to exploit welfare
And others who are natives
>europe
white people dont want to live around immigrants so they move to richer neighborhoods, and push real estate prices even higher.
and thus pushing value of banks higher.
Immigrants are heavily integrated
Except for some Muslims
they are horrible at being integrated
The Asians and Africans and Eastern Europeans become 90% Irish within just 1 generation
No joke
But the Roma just kinda beg on the streets
Is Roma a derogatory term?
mouse born in aquarium doesnt just become fish.
bad analogy
U wouldn’t get it unless you lived in Ireland
humans are the same species
It’s the last bastion of good immigration
In Western Europe
different races.
race doesnt change based on where you born
A lot of the immigrants adopt western values in short periods and inter marry
In Ireland
do you believe culture is downstream from race?
just clarifying
been through this before, better to not beat around the bush
Downstream?
I have never heard that phrase
