RE: The Stupidity of Borders - An Illegal Alien Steemian In Mexico Gets Kidnapped And A Free Flight To His Tax Farm
I've often said there needs to be a law that requires all-American students to spend a year in a foreign country. It's the only hope for the average citizen to open their eyes so real changes can be made.
As a person who grew up middle-class in Nigeria, I'm often fascinated by the fact the average middle-class American doesn't realize that the standard of living is significantly higher over there.
We had a driver that took me to school and anywhere I wanted to go Monday to Saturday. We had a live-in nanny who made sure we had fresh meals when we were hungry. We even had gatemen (security guys) who rotated 12-hour shifts. There was always someone guarding our gate 24-hours a day.
All this is normal in middle-class Nigeria, and I'm sure many other parts of the world.
Now here's a big secret the media won't tell you. The number one demographic of people deported from Nigeria are people of European descent. Middle -class Americans, British etc. who end up in Nigeria because of their jobs and realize they've been deceived their entire lives and never want to leave.
The only thing the U.S. does better is when it comes to the lowest classes. Providing welfare services and such which can also be considered a form of enslavement if you think deeper. It comes down to the old saying, "It's better to teach a man to fish than give him a fish. "
This is quite interesting to find out. Looking at news about Nigeria all we're presented with is poverty and the Boko Haram.
Yeah, the media has done a number on the entire world. Meanwhile most Nigerians aren't remotely worried about Boko Haram.
