The truth about mass migration
I'm Andres Acevedo and this is The Market Exit. During the migration crisis of 2015, the small country of Sweden admitted a very large number of refugees. What effects did this surge of migrants to Swedish have on the Swedish economy? To find out, I met professor Peo Hansen, author of the book "A Modern Migration Theory" and from our conversation, I realized that many of the economic models we use for assessing our economy and society are deeply flawed.
In the conversation, we talk about the field of research called the fiscal impact of migration. We talk about the difference between real resources and financial resources. We talk about the so-called brain drain within the European Union. ...

    Precisely the point - bright minds, hard workers are working in financial services to earn a decent living, instead of creating something new and really applying their talents. Because applying a talent and developing talents is not on the agenda in the society. It is extremely rare when talented people have the means to pursue passion and talent

    The truth about mass migration from another view point Please, look at this: Reference: Der Standard: "Vienna - The list of parties that want to stand in the National Council elections is getting longer and longer. According to Niederösterreichische Nachrichten (NÖN), the newly founded Islamic Party of Austria (IPÖ) also wants to be represented in parliament in the future. According to media reports, the party is led by former ship captain Gustav Jobstmann - the party is based in Wiener Neustadt. Jobstmann could not be reached by STANDARD for the time being. The aims of the party include safeguarding "religious needs and securing the rights of Muslims in Austria". " You see: Muslims in Vienna are not for the Austrians. No, they are only for the rights of the Muslims because they are special in comparison to the Austrians. It is unbelievable. Sooner or later they will introduce the sharia. Kick them all out of the country.

    The truth about mass migration from another view point In France, the Netherlands, Germany, UK there are a lot of problems with refugees specially from Muslims countries. Here are some facts: Germany Every day, you have killed Germans or rapped German women by Muslim people. In Germany since 2017, more than 52,000 women have been victims of a sexual offense by asylum seekers. As can be seen, these are Islamic countries. In the offense area "Crimes against sexual self-determination", the number of suspected immigrants in 2023 was highest among suspects from Syria (907). This was followed by the numbers of suspects from Afghanistan (700), Iraq (333), Ukraine (171), Turkey (132), Eritrea (135), Somalia (115), Tunisia (106), Iran (103) and Pakistan (86). (Nius 24.6.2024). Two weeks ago, a policeman was stabbed by an Afghan. Two days ago, a 20-year-old boy was killed brutally by a Muslim. France In France, you have beheaded teachers and police in schools. We have situations like in a civil war UK In UK, Muslims mayor were voted by Muslim agglomerations. British people were informed to leave their towns if they do not like Muslim people Netherlands We have in the Netherlands according to an investigation nearly 900'000 Muslims who do not stand for the Dutch law. They want to introduce the sharia. Conclusion: Stop immigration, specially from Muslim countries. They can go to Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia and live their Islam faith there.

    The truth about mass migration from another view point 1. Some European facts Around Frankfurt, Germany nearly, 8000 Asian families live. You hear nothing bad about them. They work hard and need nobody and learn German by their own, I have a lot of respect of these people. On the contrary: Why have Muslim such a lot problems to integrate in a country. I give you now pure Islam teachings. Even left people can understand. Please come with me in the Quran, the basis of Islam. What says the Quran about Jews and Christians. a. We are the worst of all beings Quran 98: 6 : "Indeed, those who disbelieve from the People of the Book (Jews and Christians) and the polytheists will be in the Fire of Hell, to stay there forever. They are the worst of ˹all˺ beings. b. Muslims cannot have Christian friends Quran 5:51" believers! Take neither Jews nor Christians as friends-they are friends of each other.1 Whoever does so will be counted as one of them. Surely Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people." We have to be with a Muslim population very careful. Why? I mention the testimony of HOW ISLAMISTS OVERRAN MY COUNTRY LEBANON - by BRIGITTE GABRIEL. You find this testimony on RUclips. ruclips.net/video/HhiytelX6-A/видео.html Every danish person should see this film 2. Strategies of Islam In Islam, you have the strategy of takiya. That means to lie about the truth of Islam for non-Muslim. If Muslims are in the minority, they use this strategy. They tell that is Islam is peaceful, care of women rights and other lies. If Muslims are in the majority, they use the strategy of sword. A good example is the state of Lebanon, which had a flourishing economy and well-educated people until the Muslims in the late 1970s had the majority. Then they began to kill people. For instance, Christians would like to celebrate Christmas in Beirut. At the outskirts of Beirut, they were shot in the head. As a consequence, a civil war started. You see now where the Lebanon is: It is a war-state for Muslims to attack Israel. It would very sad if Denmakr is a muslim country to serve for a war against Sweden. Here is the basis for killing people Please come now to the Quran: The Quran is replete with Surahs directing its followers to violence. Some examples follow: Surah 3:151: "We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve (all non-Muslims) …" Surah 2:191: "And kill them (non-Muslims) wherever you find them … kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers (non-Muslims)." As you can find in "Tears of the Jihad" (political Islam) you find a list of killed people by country since the fake prophet Muhammed. There are 270 millions people. Another source speaks about 670 Million people. Conclusion: Stop immigration, specially from Muslim countries. They do not feel well in Denmark because according tp the Quran, we are the worst of all beings. Send them back to their own countries where they can live in peace (and we too!)

    I am absolutely shocked at the lazy thinking and racism in many of the comments here. I studied economics just after 2008 economic crisis and was surprised to come to the realisation that almost all politics is a reaction to economics. For instance, if the majority of people are financially comfortable, they become politically moderate. However, when they are struggling financially, they look for answers and become far more radial. Unfortunately, the causes of the 2008 economic crisis were not addressed and instead, artificially low interest rates for 15 years have hidden the economic problems, which have been lurking like a monster, waiting to devour us. So, 15 years ago, it was entirely predictable that the global economy would deteriorate and that the general public would look for simple, radical answers. Blaming immigrants is very, very convenient for politicians, and powerful businessmen who have profited immensely from our collective ignorance. It means we don't hold the people causing our problems accountable and instead allow them to continue exploiting us and running our societies into the ground. We need to get informed and watch videos like this with an open mind. The truth will set us all free but ignorance and hatred will enslave us. The choice is ours.

      @@TheMarketExit Well most people know that the 2008 housing bubble was caused by banks lending more freely and then packaging mortgages together and selling them as assets to investors and then people defaulting on their mortgages meant the assets were massively overvalued. But really that's just a symptom of a much broader, deeper problem with our current economic paradigm. It's too complex to go into in detail but in essence, since 1971 we have been using fiat currencies which devalue as more money is created (mostly by loans rather than printing). This is the primary cause of inflation. Also every unit of currency comes with interest attached, which can only be paid back with the creation of more money, because by definition there isn't enough money to pay back the interest and the principle. In addition to this, every unit of currency is taxed again and again and again each time a transaction occurs, so to keep a supply of money, more money is needed. And if that wasn't enough, the rich, amass wealth and often keep it in unproductive assets such as housing, which increases inequality. The only answer to this problem is to grow the economy. However, since about the year 2000, almost all growth in most major Western economies has been debt. It's fake growth which makes us all feel wealthier as our house price goes up but really, we are getting more and more in debt while bankers and rich investors become wealthier. This is why there isn't enough money for social security, housing, health care, eduction etc. etc. etc. and why inequality increases. In fact, money is a medium of exchange, so any growth or profit one person earns, essentially means someone else loses some of their money. Those who are good at earning money become wealthier, quite literally at the expense of those who are good at spending it. We don't notice we are becoming poorer though, because the currency devalues so the numbers get bigger. Then we look at how much our house price has gone up, if we have a house, and congratulate ourselves on becoming richer, even though we have a huge mortgage and we are working for the bank. And if we haven't got a house, we are desperate to take on a cripplingly huge mortgage in order to get on the housing ladder while we still have a slim chance! If we take the stock market, for example, it's seen great growth over the last few decades, when measured in US Dollars and other fiat currencies. However, these currencies have devalued by 93 - 97% since 1971 so it is quite literally a false economy. The merchant bankers make billions of dollars taking money from small investors who see the stock prices go up when measured in their currency and think they're going to strike it rich. However, if you measure the stock market against other, physical commodities such as wheat, oil, gold, coffee etc. etc. then this growth disappears. So the problem is a systemic one that has no positive outcome as far as I can see. The only way to keep going is to keep growing, which is why economists and politicians always bang on about growth, growth, growth. Unfortunately, perpetual growth is a physical impossibility. There are zero examples in the Universe that I am aware of where growth is perpetual, except for the Universe itself. And I am 99.9999999% recurring sure that eventually the Universe will stop growing too and will start being sucked into a black hole or something (any physicists reading, please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. That's not my area of expertise). However, if we take the human body as an example, if we get continual growth, it's called cancer and if we can't stop it, then it will kill us. That is what is happening to our societies and to the environment and the animals around us. We are literally killing the world that supports us. I am sad to say that no politicians can solve this problem without fundamentally changing our economic system because our system must have growth and growth is killing us. Unfortunately, the people in power usually have done very well out of the system (which is why they are powerful) and so have a vested interest in keeping the tired old system going as long as they possibly can. That's why they want us to blame immigrants and Muslim extremists and Covid and anything else that will distract us so they can continue profiting. I fear that we are going to head down a very dark road indeed as this madness plays out. I can only hope that eventually, some form of AGI will come along and figure out the solution because God knows, we don't seem to be able to!

    Okay so this has been an interesting video and I‘m glad YT suggested it. From the title I was expecting the usual anti-immigration/culture war take on the issue. I‘m not entirely conviced about immigration really being a net positive though. You haven‘t addressed the elephant in the room, which is the willingness of countries to integrate immigrants into society and of course whether those newcomers themselves are both willing and able to adapt accordingly. As a German I obviously can’t speak for Sweden but there are additional costs to pay and if society isn’t willing to invest in areas like the school system, the outcome might be less favourable. There seems to be this feeling that immigration is forced on society by a select group of people who might profit from it aka „the liberal urban elite“ and in a way there is some truth to that. Economic arguments won’t persuade these people, especially if their own situation doesn’t improve. That however is also part of the cost IMHO. Again thanks for your video though!

    I find this report difficult to believe. We know that the economic and societal success of Scandinavian countries is owed to a homogenous, ordered society and a highly educated working class, It is no secret that the immigrants into Sweden are basically uneducated and lack the knowledge to work in a job market that requires higher levels of education. So, you have an immigrant class that is unable to compete in the job market and requires government assistance. Multiculturalism has failed Europe. European cities are overwhelmed with individuals from God knows where. These people have no intention of joining the greater society and much less in learning the language. Worse of all, radicalized, anti-western Islam is creeping in, hiding in the shadow of moderate Muslims. I recommend that EU plan of working with Tunisia and possibly Libya, to keep the immigrants in North Africa, making the passage to Europe more difficult.

    The video talks about GDP, not GDP per capita. "How much they get out from welfare systems..."? Do these welfare systems include the power stations, the water treatment plants and water and power distribution networks. Do these welfare systems include sanitation and telecommunications? Because these comforts did not fall from the sky, and the migrants did not pay for them. Migrants contribute to the need for still more infrastructure that everyone has to pay for, not just the newcomers that make it necessary. Of course, the construction companies love their taxpayer funded projects, as do their employees, many of whom are foreign. And the infrastructure counts as GDP, even though it is paid for by taxpayers.

The reason that there are problems in Sweden is socialism. Some 700,000 migrants are allowed to live on welfare indefinitely at an enormous cost.

By the end of 2018, EU-27 member states were hosting 2.4 million refugees and people in refugee-like situations, as well as 860,000 asylum seekers The latest available international migrant stock data (2020) show that nearly 87 million international migrants lived in Europe. this shit is not sustainable Europe is done their economy and Euro fiat currency will collapse before USA

    Another academic who doesn't live in the Real world. Look at the crime rates, rape etc committed by illegal entries in Sweden. Look at the Real numbers, Not the Fake numbers released by Corrupt Incompetent Woke politicians and judiciary protecting criminals. Has Sweden cut taxes or has it's total debt decreased. If Not then it's a lie about illegal entries being good for the economy. Show us Peer reviewed Independent scientific evidence. Not manipulated government data.

    Any European living in Europe, earning less than €150,000 can tell this is absolute nonsense.

    I am an immigrant in the European Union. The number of immigrants that spend more time trying to qualify to state unemployment income more than looking for a job is more than any native can imagine. . They feel free to tell me as i am a minority immigrant too. They would not speak the truth to natives. . Europe has the right to qualify immigrants and reject those that don't fit the criteria. . Post modernism and anti West sentiment will destroy this continent.

    the middle eastern crisis was and still is a hoax to manipulate the western minds, especially the women politicians, to take in refugees. Research it.

    It’s not the costs, it’s due to incompatibility of cultures, of civilisations, and the inability of migrants to integrate with the Swedish way of life. Especially illegal migrants, from dystopian societies, dysfunctional countries….

    migrant here, you're making a huge mistake lumping all immigrants from all background together. Migrants from OECD countries and Eastern Europe are indeed net beneficiaries to the countries where they go. That's not true about migrants from non-Western backgrounds in particular Sub-Saharan Africa, the Arab world and Southern Asia. There were studies done on this issue in Denmark and the Netherlands, not to mention in the UK Bangladeshis and Somalis are way too overrepresented among those receiving benefits. The numbers Peo Hansen was talking about may have simply been due to the fact that Sweden is getting more Eastern European and Western migrants compared to the numbers they were getting in the past

    It, of course, does not work like that. If it did, why not take in millions of unskilled migrants put them on welfare and grow the economy exponentially? Yes, if the government borrows money to pay migrants the economy grows, but perhaps you would agree that is not sustainable. It brings to mind how development economics was taught in Sweden in the early 1970s, there was only one model, that would work, anything else was capitalist exploitation. Tanzinia's Nyrere model was the only acceptable way forward. Any student who did not buy this wholesale would fail. That Nyrere's policies turned out to be a disaster has been buried and no one was ever held responsible. Hundreds of billions in SIDA aid were not only wasted but did harm. Your teaching is similar to those teaching development in the 1970s. Human memory is very short.

    2:00 This guy says they were all wrong, and you just up and believe him? Instead of asking why he claims they were wrong, you go and try to find out *why* they were wrong, when you should be finding out first *if* they were wrong. 5:00 Incredible. Below average contributors are not costs. Crazy, man. Some immigration is generally a benefit to both the immigrants and the country. Where too many illegals especially with cultures hostile to the host country, and criminals are allowed in unvetted, and in too large a clump at a time there are great detriments - lack of assimilation fosters unemployment and crime, and especially nasty crime. What contribution to the country is every Swedish citizen slain by an immigrant? How does this benefit Sweden?

    Migrants from Yugoslavia and Greece in the 1970s assimilated, integrated. This is where there is a positive outcome from migration. The 2015 migration had too many uneducated young men, who were unable to accept European cultural values assimilate, and imposed on society a dysfunctional culture, alien to Sweden and the EU. These young men are a problem culturally. The problem is not financial, but cultural.
