Should The Whole World Be Free To Be Able To Travel To An Live In?

[Broseph]

I don't mean the traveling costs but the barriers that stop immigrants and travelers from going wherever they want to?

Anyone should be able to travel to anywhere whenever they like and live there if they feel like it's the right place to them.

No one owns the globe do they? Who has the right to tell me I can't travel and settle down wherever I feel like.

What would be the pros and cons of this new system in your opinion?

NIMBY

[Broseph]

/NIMBY/ Not in my back yard? Oh I'm sorry,do you own the UK,your city or village?

Local infrastructure limits the numbers that can be accomodated in any place.

Will that do?

/Local infrastructure limits the numbers that can be accomodated in any place.

Yes as a con but what pros do you see if any?

AOG; //Well for one, could we take in the inhabitants of the whole continent of Africa?//

I think that particular project is well under way!

You are prepared to share all your things then, House, Car, etc?

How many immigrants are you prepared to take in, feed and clothe?

Bro, lose the big chip on your shoulder. When the British Empire was at it's height, the life expectancy in Merthyr was 17. It was lower in some English towns.
We, or our forefathers, earned what we have by the sweat of our brows, not some International smash & grab.

I think Broseph sees himself as one of the ones travelling where ever he likes, not as one of the hard-pressed Locals who are being taxed to the hilt to finance his travels, accommodation etc.

I'd be able to visit the USA with no need for visas or disclosuere of personal details that might be an embarrassment to me.
Maybe even drop in on 'the best president' for a chat about his achievements in office.

All of them if I had became rich and powerful through their misery and exploitation.

[Broseph]

/I think that particular project is well under way!/ Wasn't Africa a rich and valuable commodity enriched continent before we landed on their shores and took everything?

/We, or our forefathers, earned what we have by the sweat of our brows, not some International smash & grab./

But not by honest sweat was it now. I'm pretty sure that thieves have sweat pores like the rest of us unless my biology lessons have failed me?

[Baldric]

Ah, so we're playing the 'if' game, in an ideal World etc, or to put it another way,
Schoolboy Fantasies!

[retrocop]

My word. I do believe we have an asylum seeker here. Sadly there are none left since overcrowding has damaged the health care service.

[Broseph]

/Schoolboy Fantasies!/

Hardly.

[retrocop]

If I was rich.If I was powerful. If I were TITANIA you could find freedom in fairyland as well.

[Broseph]

/If I was rich.If I was powerful. If I were TITANIA you could find freedom in fairyland as well./

I have no idea what Shakespeare has to do with this.

////Schoolboy Fantasies!/ Hardly.////

Try and stop sounding like a disgruntled 3rd year then I might take you a little more seriously

[Broseph]

/Try and stop sounding like a disgruntled 3rd year then I might take you a little more seriously/

Oh the old /Pretend I'm offended and disgruntled to sidestep and waltz around the question at hand/ trick.

No one is forcing you for your opinion although it is valued.

[douglas9401]

When are we moving on to communism being a great idea?
