Antarctica is pretty exclusive.
I was briefly tempted by a winterover job there. It’d be a pay cut, plus a year and a half of continuous winter, and I’m not totally convinced that the U.S. would still exist by the time they’re supposed to pick us up.
The rape sexual assault vibe is a bit of a problem though.
True. The population of indigenous people is very stable
This hurt my brain
I read it a few times, and I finally understand it, racist people are stupid
Ohhhh!!
It’ll hurt more when you understand some people actually, without a hint of irony, believe that.
Interestingly - North Korea exists, but also many of the most successful countries only take a minute number of immigrants, and only very highly skilled or very rich ones. E.g luxembourg, switzerland, monaco(?) and Singapore.
This is because they don’t tend to have “gaps to fill” in the economy/workforce and are very small.
Lol Luxembourg city population is 70% foreigner.
Likewise Singapore is mostly immigrants. This guy is wrong by such a huge degree that I don’t think it’s even a mistake, I think he knows he lying.
Switzerland has about 25% foreigners and in Luxembourg the Portuguese minority alone is 15-20%
The GDP per capita of those countries are skewed because most of the workers live outside the city state and commute in. You’re just seeing the GDP benefits that cities have over rural areas.
There is still freedom of movement for workers between the EU and Switzerland.

Yes because if you’re white you’re an expat and if you’re brown you’re an immigrant
