    As a Brazilian, you are forgetting that the reason why “3rd world countries” immigrate to “1st world countries” is because the latter exploited the former as colonies to the max: Brazil, India, Morocco, Senegal, Mexico, list goes on.

    1st world countries only could deliver this level of wellbeing to their citizens because some countries were being exploited at the bottom.

    When 3rd world citizens watch videos of people of their own country working for Ifood/Uber on the US and making 5x as much due to how shitty their national economy is, the decision to immigrate is obvious. It’s really ironic if you think about it that 1st world countries have to pay out of their own pockets to rescue, give food, shelter and pay basic health care for descendants of people their own ancestors exploited
