So you assume everyone will instantly get a job and contribute to society? That seems very unlikely

Do you have an example of a good nation?

The tension is caused by not having open borders.

I don't see how that's could possibly be the case.

Would you mind explaining how you imagine wealthy countries would fare if we removed all borders tomorrow? How would social security and societal services work with a massive influx of people without any increase in taxes?

If every border opened up and tons of people moved into Europe/USA and other wealthy countries they would inevitably collapse. Trust in the system would erode and it would all devolve into anarchy.

I doubt a lot of people would voluntarily move out of wealthy countries, those that want to already can, so it would be a one way transfer of people.

We already see a lot of tension in regards to migration and opening borders would make it 100 times worse

I wouldnt say its a counter point. A cat on a leash is definitely fine. Its letting the cats roam freely that is the problem

That cats should remain indoors. Pet cats kill approximately 2.4 billion birds in the US alone, not to mention all the other animals that they also kill. I love cats as much as the next guy but keep them indoors for the love of nature

While this is a noble goal, in practice it'll just lead to the collapse of every modern nation. If we reach some utopian future where resources are no limit then it should work, but I very much doubt it would work right now

Hmm yes I'll just read about how cool two bullets hitting each other in slowmotion looks. Much better experience than watching it /s

Smashing your local mom-and-pop shop will surely show big businesses that you're serious /s

Haha, so many butthurt self-righteous people in this thread.

Why are you so toxic? I thought Lemmy was supposed to foster better discussions than Reddit but here you are name-calling and talking down to people.

Please consider treating people better in the future
