Icarus, you're an idiot. Leave.
If another human being wants to live in a different region of the world, let them. Besides, most of these people just want to work/give their family a fighting chance. Sure, some bad folks will come along, but it's not as if we're not producing bad people here every day.
Now, if you're going to blame something, blame reproduction. There's already far too many people in this world, but that doesn't mean we should start drowning newborns. It's just something we, as people, need to deal with. We're not the only ones here, so yeah, sometimes we have to share our shit when we don't want to.
There are so many more areas in this country that could use this funding, but we always sacrifice quality of life for the quality of protection. Some people just don't understand the phrase "shit happens".

The thing is, if everyone flocks to lands of opporunity because they come from lands of no opportunity, then there will be severe overcrowding... What in my opinion is needed is to fix the lands of no opportunity, basically bring the mountain (opportunity) to mohammed (third world country).
There isn't far too many people in this world from what I can see...the only way in which there are far too many people is in the person to housing ratio. There are still many vast, open spaces with nobody inhabiting them for hundreds and hundreds of miles around, so there's room for these people alright, and then some. Yes the population of earth has been getting progressively larger, but what I'm saying is the ability to house all these people hasn't grown at the same rate as the population, because housing is based on demand... and basically, someone who is poor because there is no way for him to get educated and get a job and so forth isn't going to be demanding to have a house. He'll probably be making his way to America where he has a chance, if he can do that, because the people of his government aren't presenting him with the opportunities he needs.
