Still, in the long run a world without borders will lead to a leveling of the standard of living so that mass migrations will come to a halt anyway.
There are a lot of Ukrainians here, and they have a good reputation here due to their reliability and honesty. Some of them are heading back home now that construction is down and thus work scarce.

That's why we don't call it a piece of land we call it our country.
When it ceases to be a country then yes any one is allowed.

The USA is 'our' house. We also 'decide who I let in based on the individual', but we call it the immigration process. The illegals want to bypass that process.

I found the video enlightening, thanks to the original poster. I don't think he mentioned this comment for the gee wiz of it, it seems he'd like to open the door to something else.

I voted for Obama. But, he just lost my next vote. This amongst many other reasons for my discontent, so again thanks for posting. I hope all the other Independent Voters such as myself see this for what it really is.

If you study the history of Europe, you will notice that the Romans were not indigenous to Europe, either. Nor Celts. After the ice age all kinds of people came to Central Europe from all directions, naturally mostly the east and south.

Regarding the Mexicans, most Mexicans never even try to move to the US. It is just unrealistic when people put it as though half of Mexico was just waiting to pass the border. Most Mexicans like Mexico and don't think of leaving. And that applies to people around the world, most people are pretty much rooted to the region they grew up. Usually people only move if they feel like they have no choice.

That sounds exactly what the World Communist Revolution was supposed to achieve.
Vladimir Lenin would be very proud of you.

Most of the Ex-Roman empire residents were of Indo-European descent! But they came in Europe a few thousands years before the Germanic people! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-European

Yep, I can see us becoming Mexico with all the drug wars and the leaders running their government.

Scary as hell.
