I want a nice, small, wooden magnetic chess set so I can study while laying in bed.

Free movement of labour and capital all over the world.
No more borders and No more immigration departments

That would cause chaos.
A simple example would be I make 20 dollars an hour building houses. I would lose my job to somebody who is willing to do it for a lot less because they are used to working for a dollar a day.
So they would offer to do the work for 10 dollars an hour and then someone else says they will do it for even less.

Your idea would only make wealthy people/corporations richer while the lower classes are fighting each other for the work.

Thats the theory and that is short-term thinking. I can remember no example in the real world where borders came down and the long-term effects were negative. They all led to increased employment, higher standard of living, greater production and more stability.

Imagine if the US/Canada border was removed, that is all positive. US?Mexica, again positive. The short term problems are minor comprared to the long term benefits. You need to see beyond a man making $20/hr.

@Rajk999

Your explanation is typical of people who want to leave a poor country so they can steal the work of people who were born here.

People should fix their countries instead of running away and being a parasite wherever they end up.

Your Christmas wish has been declined.
