RE: Walls Don't Work: AKA A World Without Walls
If we didn't have so much welfare, we wouldn't need walls to some extent. Ultimately, each person needs to protect themselves. So, if I could, I would live on a mountain with big walls and a river that goes around it. I would have body guards. In other words, I would be my own country.
America should continue building and rebuilding walls. We need them for the current system that we have. Ultimately, it would be better to focus on private property rights. I would prefer only vetting people over into the USA.
Hypothetically, having no walls at all would be ideal in some ways. People who want no walls have good points. However, that hypothetical world is just that, hypothetical. Also, a lot of people can come in and change the culture of communities. That's happening in Minnesota for example. A lot of people are not prepared in America for no borders. Actually, we have no borders to an extent as people flood the United States of America as it is being invaded as we speak in the 2010's, these past few years and we have to always try to minimize Open Borders and Divide and Conquer and the size of federal governments.
I would love to have walls around countries, states, counties, cities, communities, neighborhoods, certain places, private property, and especially houses. Sadly, a lot of people may not have enough money at the moment to take care of themselves. Sadly, too many are not independent enough and they survive excessively on the government to take care of them. People in other countries prefer welfare. But America was not founded on welfare but on freedom which takes hard work to maintain.
This is true. There are other solutions with regard to the nation and walls.
If the benefits of trespassing outweigh the consequences of being caught then you'll have a problem.
Yet the same people whining about walls are the ones rapidly increasing those benefits. In that environment you need a wall, or some barriers to slow it down and make it more difficult. It won't stop it. I think I indicated that in my original post.
So if the punishment for trespassing were strictly enforced and intimidating enough that it made those benefits not so attractive then we wouldn't need walls.
I don't see the people reducing those benefits. Personally I see that as by design and happening on a global scale. Kloward and Piven's study/approach put to action.
I love the idea of a world without nations and we all co-exist.
Yet acting as though I can do that an ignore human nature is really no different than the type of thinking that leads people to keep embracing socialism, communism, and Marxism over and over again. They get sucked in by feel good concepts of the world living in peace and everyone getting along, and everyone being treated equal. Many of them even seem to think equal outcome is something that can be guaranteed.
It is an appeal to emotion. Then embracing that emotional idea they can virtue signal and try to force it on or convince others.
This too is where the world without nations CURRENTLY exists.
It is incredibly dangerous and destructive to go down that path with people's education, cultures, ideologies, the way they currently are.
Those things would need to change. And unlike communist/marxist I am not proposing reeducation, and enforced conformity. I believe diversity of mind is the way to go. Yet we require training on how to coexist and interact with people we disagree with without thinking we need to destroy or oppress them. That type of thinking only exists in a small number of people at the moment, and to me it looks like attempts are being made to make such people less and less likely to exist.
So we can dream. Yet we need to pay attention to reality too. If we want to change reality we can do that too but we need to approach it in steps and think long term as well as short term. We need to not embrace things blindly because they make us feel positive and happy about such a world existing. We have to WORK to get to these places.
To rip your borders down while you have so many things around you that other people want in a world where people are educated the way they are is a recipe for disaster.
Core Values
The United States is founded on core values that the people, NOT THE PERSONS, agree upon. So, I want people that agree with those eternal principles to come into our country.
Transition
It might be argued that we simply need to transition to Open Borders. To some extent, many people are like babies. So, they need to learn how to walk on their own, independently, physically, socially, financially, and provide their own security, safety, to protect themselves without the need for police.
Prostitution
Opening up the borders is like easy love. It like having relationships with everybody. It's like having an open relationship. Imagine a woman or a man who has sex with every human he or she runs into. You might call a human like that to be a whore.
Defining Love
Tucker Carlson likes to put it this way. Imagine inviting ten guests over for dinner. That's awesome. Now imagine ten random folks showing up. And then imagine that they refuse to leave. And then imagine that they start stabbing you with a knife. The difference is that the latter lacks that choice. That is fundamental to the meaning of life, to freewill. That is what love is about. Too often, when we claim we are loving people by helping them, we are in fact spoiling them.
