BTW, don't watch "this short video regarding world poverty, immigration and numbers". It is not about "world poverty, immigration and numbers" per se, more like, let's continue Hitler's reign of terror and kill everyone who is anything but 'Aryan'. It's evil.
i have been coming to the usa for the past twenty plus years and i have noticed in that time a marked increase in people from the indian subcontinent.now they are not fleeing any wars so i assume they are here legally. i thought that you could only get a visa to work and stay in the usa if you are doing a job that an american citizen can not do?.so what jobs are the indian/pakistanis doing?.

Not the case for H1Bs.
For permanent residence, they got the company to sponsor, the company recruited, didn't find a suitable American or Permanent Resident, therefore the Green Card was granted.
South Asians mostly do technology and academic work.
The rest of the world is a funny place... they demand that the US stay out of everyone else's business. But they also demand that we take on the refugees from everyone else's business.

Many employers are lying to Immigration as in the case of a girl I worked with from the Ukraine and my brother worked for a large corporation that also followed that practice. I turned in my employer and also the Ukranian that should have been kicked out when her visa was about to expire because she came here for schooling. She lied and said she had a college degree, when in all actuality, she graduated from a US high school. Anything past middle school in the Ukraine is or was considered University. She got her job as a political favor. She does office work that a high school graduate in the US should be doing!
In my brother's field, it was engineering and IT positions.
If these people are not going to fight for there freedom and rights in there own country we should not take them in, we have to many moochers now in America. Paul
US foreign policy is not responsible for destabilizing Africa, nor is Syria America's problem, nor Asia. Afghanistan has been a hell hole for decades. At least the United States has tried to stabilize that country.
Anything done in the Middle East is also done with the implicit or explicit support (REQUEST, even!) of the aforementioned rich Arab Gulf States and our allies in those regions, who have more than enough money and closer cultural and religious ties to those hordes of refugees - from Syria to Palestine.
Short memory? The US discretely encouraged the Arab Spring in 2010, but then did not support the protesters afterward. What started with protests to overthrow the dictatorships was well intended, but those countries, Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, etc., did not know what to do afterwards. The US, or President Obama's policy dictated that we should not do anything. This power void allowed ISIL/ISIS to come in and take control. What you are seeing now are the effects of all that.
Yes, that was a very short summary, but in a nutshell, that is what happened. For those US Haters, this is what happens when the US is not involved in world affairs. It is easy to say, and some think it noble, that the US will stand down and get out of the way of the affairs of foreign governments, but this is what you get.
Yes, President Obama's decisions and actions to leave a personal legacy behind caused this. He will have a legacy for sure.
