First off, let’s highlight the potential scale of demand for the federal, state, city and local benefit system in the US.

Immigration, World Poverty and Gumballs (youtube.com)
“Immigration – Global humanitarian reasons for current U.S. immigration are tested in this updated version of immigration author and journalist Roy Beck’s colorful presentation of data from the World Bank and U.S. Census Bureau. The 1996 version of this immigration gumballs presentation has been one of the most viewed immigration policy presentations on the internet.”
3 billion people globally, back then, who make less than 2 bucks a day. The world population was 7 billion back then, it is now 8 billion.
The UN has played its part in trafficking people from the third world into the US, the EU and the UK.
The UN has the same level of expertise as any group of a few thousand people who have a different view and who seek to impose the will of that group onto the entire world. No elections required, just opinions and a willingness to suffer the indignity of diplomatic immunity, business class flights, food and hotel accommodation in the richest cities/resorts of the world.
“Immigration can never be an effective or significant way to help the suffering of the people of the world”.
The “poor, huddled masses” of the world need to be helped where they live, not by brining them into the US. By trafficking them here, these people desert their home countries and ay solutions they might contribute to and, instead, impoverish the areas where they surface.
