Are you arguing that it’s now our responsibility to address global income inequality? Progressives really do want the United States to be a third world country.

I’m arguing nothing of the sort.

Additionally, free movement of goods and capital but not people impacts prosperity here as well. We implicitly recognize this…the arguments over Trump’s policies on trade are an example of how we recognize it, even if we don’t say aloud what we are recognizing.

And again, you are making a zero sum assumption with what you just said.

Not going to go thru 260 posts.

Have these photos been verified as recent?

I really do not trust Breitbart or Okeef.

Do you trust this Democrat?

Because it is a zero-sum assumption. No borders, no country.

Unfounded assertion full of assumptions!

And yet, the Netherlands, Bulgaria and Sweden remain somehow distinct.

How’s the income equality?

Wrong metric made of meaningless assumptions pasted over a null set.

Would the cultures of EU nations and the Middle East mesh as well?

And there you go bouncing off on a tangent.

The free flow of goods and labor is accompanied by the free flow of persons, between the three countries mentioned. That EU attached passport, plus the EU wide VAT, guarantee as much.

And yet, Sweden, the Netherlands and Bulgaria remain distinct.

Care to show why these are somehow three special cases?

You’re a little hard to follow. Sometimes you nail it. And sometimes you seem a bit contradictory. But, I think you are basically looking at it objectively.

Tried and true. It has proven to work.

Are you seriously arguing that what works within the EU can be applied globally?

:rofl: I understand.

I am asking you to explain your claim that countries disappear when border controls do.

Sweden, the Netherlands and Bulgaria remain unique and distinct. How?

It doesn’t work in the EU.

No, not at all.

So you’re focusing on the superficial, rather than the global cultural mismatch that international open borders would create.

You actually need evidence of over population stripping areas of resources? Are you actually that niave.

I didn’t say they would I said assume if they did. What would happen to your local resources?
