@Roman Dmowski how much factor do you think the 'brain drain' has on modern africa?

2018-06-11 23:07:40 UTC  

e.g., all smart people can get out and go to a better place

2018-06-11 23:07:42 UTC  

so they never fix their own

2018-06-11 23:07:55 UTC  

one of the poorest countries in the world

2018-06-11 23:07:56 UTC  

cycle of poverty

2018-06-11 23:08:14 UTC  

lol

2018-06-11 23:08:15 UTC  

This video is an explanation of it in a few minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPjzfGChGlE

Vobeyo do you have an opinion on the 'brain drain' point?

2018-06-11 23:08:31 UTC  

Those who are very smart and skilled in Africa don't stay because they can get to the west and the west lets them in

2018-06-11 23:08:35 UTC  

because we like to let smart people in obviously

2018-06-11 23:08:40 UTC  

well it's a huge reach

2018-06-11 23:08:51 UTC  

how much of a factor do you think it is?

2018-06-11 23:08:59 UTC  

how would the intelligent people gain the resources to be able to leave

2018-06-11 23:09:00 UTC  

let's say IQ is a really big deal and a big reason

2018-06-11 23:09:06 UTC  

not a factor

2018-06-11 23:09:17 UTC  

The 130-150 IQ people in Africa are able to be relatively successful there and gather enough money to leave

2018-06-11 23:09:22 UTC  

@Roman Dmowski us is pretty good about aiding high skilled immigration

2018-06-11 23:09:23 UTC  

and they do, because they can be wayyyyyyyyyy better off

2018-06-11 23:09:30 UTC  

we shouldn't be

2018-06-11 23:09:33 UTC  

tbh

2018-06-11 23:09:37 UTC  

yes, and it's a good point

2018-06-11 23:09:41 UTC  

it's good for the us

2018-06-11 23:09:43 UTC  

no

2018-06-11 23:09:43 UTC  

that skilled immigration is immoral and hurts other countries

2018-06-11 23:09:45 UTC  

it isn't

2018-06-11 23:09:51 UTC  

it is vobeyo

2018-06-11 23:09:55 UTC  

it hurts all

2018-06-11 23:10:02 UTC  

I've worked with several smart indian and asian immigrants who contribute so much value

2018-06-11 23:10:08 UTC  

it's obviously useful

2018-06-11 23:10:10 UTC  

okay

2018-06-11 23:10:14 UTC  

If you can have a top 1% worker in any industry working with you

2018-06-11 23:10:18 UTC  

net benefit or net detriment to you?

2018-06-11 23:10:22 UTC  

that may be true but they are still harming the US

2018-06-11 23:10:37 UTC  

what statistics do you have

2018-06-11 23:10:43 UTC  

they're not white in a country that is supposed to be for whites

2018-06-11 23:10:52 UTC  

Is it about race or values?

2018-06-11 23:10:52 UTC  

I have the decline of the white majority in the US

2018-06-11 23:10:58 UTC  

both

2018-06-11 23:11:03 UTC  

usa is not supposed to be for whites

2018-06-11 23:11:10 UTC  

race and values tend to be closely intertwined
