I think the issue is coming back round in full face because, there did not used to be this "international entity" for one. And because people, or basically groups of people joined.. and realised that this is a possibilities.. then this is just... It causes chaos. To me.. I see the UK with its commonwealth system. This was enough, "as it is"... And we were not part of the EU back then, and so some of the human rights laws, did not overlap. Cos the UK had its own robust laws, to let people in, OR out of the UK in term of the Commonwealth. I know, cos my parents fell into this category. SO... when we, or if I did decided to go back home, so how come, the British companies did not hire people like myself, back to say in my commonwealth countries to begin with ? In HK ? Cos it should've been so.. but I was refused this kind of thing.. and so then.. when the money, or those banking sectors were basically ruined, destroyed and basically forced to bank run. And lose its money. What exactly did people expected ??? And now.. here we are.... Back to a kind of square one situation. And yet, when most of us, would not dare to have kids, and would think twice, and just abort or something. Here we are... many people have had kids... and the population is now reaching a whopping 7 billion. Even the Indonesian area.. alone... has reached like a mega whopping doubled their population under the last 40 years. UK cannot sustain this... Europe knows.. It was because of the infighting of the past, which led the exploration of new land, wasn't it ? Which created the America that we know of today. "The New World"....

@mattkinsella9856 : If these people go back to Rwanda.. and that there is a subsidy.. cos housing is finished. Then can they not farm as well, and then send us back the money, and then they get a savings account to hold that money ? Isn't this how the ex-commonwealth countries WERE built on before ! Yes, it WAS !!! The problem that went wrong with the past, is not the idea of a Commonwealth but because the commonwealth areas and regions ended up being invaded. That is what literally happened. All except the ones that were islands.. and was not easily attacked. All the lands ones, have been absorbed, or attacked by the masses... and this is where we are at now. Literally. To think that, people... like traders that traded TEA LEAVES... were killed.... over TEA Leaves ! Back in the day. And a lot of social media happens now.. But how many people, literally ever thought to themselves..... "Actually, somebody in the USA defended my tea leaves, and this is how I got my pay and my salary".... Grown men, fighting one another, over tea leaves, and killed one another over this, and they died. How many commonwealthers literally think about it like that today ?
Meanwhile, China is doing a bank run.. lol.... Well... There comes a time whereby one does not care any more. Let the world be, the way it would be. Even if you leave a country, come back, it's changed already.. and not what is said.. or whatever... My mom left HK in her 20s.. I went back and it was a metropolis already. And now, 40 years on, it is a concrete jungle just like NYC. Nobody cares, and certainly nobody gives a damn... And the usual thing too. The coolie/slaves or labourers on the ships. The ships have gone... and these individuals just want to stay. Nobody has told them anything, they never got to learn to speak the lingo. Nobody ever told them what's happened to their companies.. and what... and why... They still live in NGOs... and do not know what to do. Even the USA has actually removed the conditions in some of their supplies from reaching those ports.. They still do not know what to do. I am glad that I stayed in the UK and not went to find my fortune in Europe.. Cos I too would've been stranded back there too. Cos we were growing as a country, as a block.... and as usually.... once bitten, twice shy. Once cheated... not again.
It is also strange for me to realise that.. a lot of people in the UK were also once upon a time... Europeans as well.. and then when war broke out, they fled their country. So then, they never did rebuild back their countries either. Cos I didn't know that was what truly went on either. That is still a surprising thing for me to find out, and about. No wonder there were a lot of people who wanted to tap into the actual HK network... Cos they saw them as allies, didn't they ? Back then...

@user-or6yn8pm3c : I met a taxi driver once and I asked him where he is from. He said Pakistan, and then we talked. And then he said that he was in a good job, and then his wife was a teacher. Both of them, were considered as "Middle Class" by Pakistan's actual level... And for any country to "break through" that middle class level.. SOMEBODY has to sacrifice. Meaning that, 1) abortion HAS to exist....and 2) donation and charities HAS to exist, in PARALLEL to.... high growth areas. IF BOTH areas are cruised... Then you will reach that high income level as well.. And then make sure that your taxes go back round, and that is how you break through... Each country has things that other countries will want. That is always the way any way. It is how to juggle this, which makes things work as well. Many people in the past have earned their money and gone back home to rebuild. This is often a way out of the future poverty... Well, this couple had to pay a lot more taxes, and NI, and water rates, and electricity and rent.. And he said that they did not considered these outgoings. So I said. "Well.. IF.. things are a lot better, than you have learnt a lesson, have you not ? It is not too late to restart back in Pakistan." Even good educated people, like GPs and Doctors in the UK, they live in a single studio flat... and their council taxes are high, on top of their flat's maintenance fees. That is around 2k, just for accommodation and utilities as well, EVEN before... actually.... anything else. Maybe in the future, we need to do things differently. Like, instead of exporting goods. We need to export rubbish round the world and clean up the water. Even if we do not hit that energy goal etc. We need to use and clean up the excessive rubbish... Even if it takes a long time, we still have to.
