An oppressed minority in a poor country where the privileged ethnic majority themselves only get a mean 4 years of education.

Laws of probability say they are unskilled.

You will find that Myanmar has had an Education Index below Democratic Republic of Congo every year between 1980 to 2014, when the data stopped being gathered.

I doubt many of them will do anything else than undervalue the work done by America's working class/working poor.

How many Muslims died at the hands of the Thai, Indian or Bangladeshi governments in the last 2 years?

I'm not sure how to read this in a way that doesn't scream special treatment.


On your first point Thats the fault of their government not anything they did.

The Thai, Indian or Bangladeshi government doesnt want them. And how is getting a one way plane ticket and getting settled somewhere be it Buffalo, St. Louis or Minneapolis special treatment? They are responsible for paying their rent and getting a job.

I suggest you check this out when you have time. Its long but maybe it will give you some perspective

I agree completely. Since they are not helping that's why they are coming to Europe and increasingly the US and Canada.

So what?

The American Government is only responsible for its own residents, and is only accountable to its own citizens. It is not a charity organisation for the rest of the planet.

No one said it was charity organization. America was founded on immigration as was Canada.

Thailand, India and Bangladesh dont have to close the borders nor can you do it to affect only one country.

And yes it is a serious question. You left out the second part about them being responsible for finding a job and paying rent.

Check out the link I posted when you have a chance. Its long but it will give you some prospective and maybe you wont be so cold hearted.

They were founded on invasion and subjugation, not immigration.

Because it makes sense to exasperate your own society's problems be bringing in more problems. :roll:

I have sympathy for the Rohingya, as a fellow muslim, I really do, but you can't save everyone life doesn't work like that. There are finite resources and a country has a finite capacity to deal with issues, you can't allow empathy to control you and lead to your own demise.

You can't assume that because certain people are uneducated they will not work hard; a large percentage of the European immigrants in th 1800s and the 1900s were illiterate and they helped build modern America. I wouldn't be surprised if one of your ancestors was a uneducated immigrant, fleeing persecution

To price out natives/residents from the same work even more?

Immigrants aren't taking away the jobs of americans; Companies who move abroad to China or india do that. You can't blame immigrants for taking jobs that have already left

Basic economics.

Higher labour supply, lower wage compensation.

Okay, now seriously. Immigrants do take jobs. I mean, you either have a source of money or die from starvation. Western countries are less efficient in having their immigrants to take jobs because they're force-feeding them with welfare so they don't really have to. It's a Western problem and they brought it on themselves, though.

Read the article and you;'ll see. Maybe you'll understand its not as simple as you think it is. You've never lived in the conditions those people grew up in and therefore you can't comprehend it.

I had an acquaintance who migrated to Britain and literally bought drugs (mostly meth, IIRC) instead of working. I think I might know at least something about that.

Well she's in the extreme minority then. Most immigrants to Britain dont collect welfare and work very hard and do jobs you likely wouldn't do.

Oh, so immigrants do take jobs now. Yes, if there were zero immigrants, those jobs would have to have better pay to attract local manpower - but that's exactly what your opponents were saying.
(Also, yes, she's in the minority (I'm not going to guess how do you know she's a she (well, if you count transgenders), a magician's got to have their secrets, but I'm still going to say that local (that is, Russian) immigrants would have an even smaller similar minority - proportionally or numerically).
