Supply and demand determines value. Over abundance leads to low value or in this case low wages. Lack of enforcing immigration rules and limits leads to an over abundance of labor which decreases wages. The wage stagnation Democrats complain about is directly caused by illegal immigration.

The Native Americans were not a bunch of peace loving hippies. The majority were constantly at war with each other and often struggling to survive.

[@Toadyru]

+CMeads We know that whites caused a lot of problems. But lets not hide some of the information. The volatile environment in the America regions (hundreds of years ago) existed before the Europeans came. Tribes fought Tribes. Some Indians were peaceful. Just as some Whites were/are peaceful. Also the Indians were not always good stewards of the land. The would set the forest on fire because of boredom. They stampeded Buffalo herds off cliffs. Leaving the meat to rot. They over fished coastal areas causing extinction of species. Some of my information came from the University of Colorado and other universities studies on Indians. Indians are just like every culture on the planet. Some things great. Something not so good.

[@jalen9461]

Natives set the forest on fire as a means of burning bacteria around an oak tree so the oak tree doesn’t die from disease. Not out of boredom. Some natives were brutal. Most just wanted to not have all of their land taken away. And most native groups were bullied into horrible reservations. The natives were bullied even when they left the reservations. And I should clarify that when I mean bully they would slaughter all of them with no warning even if they surrendered.

I do not understand why people would flee their country go to another country for a better life... so they must have thought America was better than their original place of birth . So why do so many immigrant people whether here legally or illegal .Once here refuse to to embrace America with all of their hearts. I'm not saying that they need to forget their heritage but to embrace America to want to assimilate with the people of the country you thought was better than the one they left . why would they rather replicate a community exactly like the one the left ... why come here and try to reproduce the exact same circumstances they left from . why not just stay in there country and work together to make it a better place to live .America was not made by peaceable means a lot of blood and lives were lost to make this nation that so many people want to live in . if American citizens can do it so can other people in other countries do what it takes to make their country's equally as great as the United State's of America. or who knows an even better place .

[@billyholmes3]

***** I think deporting all illegals would be so stupid first just run through a background check if they haven't raped or killed anyone they get to stay and proof their citizens what that would do is all the businesses that are hiring illegals would be forced to pay a fair wage or at least the minimum because all that cheap labor they had was due to the fact of the illegals or undocumented if you like had no other recourse but to accept the lesser wage if they were demanding fair wage or at least minimum I think that would drive our economy straight through the roof just my thought I live right here on the border and I really honestly don't see a lot of assimilation I dunno if any of Hispanic friends that do assimilate that are stimulated but I also see a lot that do not wish to do so I'm sure maybe it's because a lot of Americans white Americans don't make him feel at home and maybe the fact that they just don't want to be at home I'm sure bigger brains out there would have the answers

[@billyholmes3]

+Alex Van Doren a lot of people want the borders secure how about this we have so many millions and millions of dollars in aid to foreign countries what if we offered Mexican generals a few million dollars every year to keep illegals coming over the border. I have a feeling that when the Mexican government and the Mexican generals see that their pockets are being filled by enforcing the borders I bet that would stop the flow of illegal undocumented people across the border no need for walls just making incentive for the Mexican side to stop the flow I have they say money talks

Two things: 1. "I am not racist, however..." Every statement I've ever heard with this particular intro has been, in fact, racist. 2. What gives you the right to generalize all Mexicans and claim that they all move to the US illegally? And even if they do, are you aware of how difficult it is to legally come to the US? People wait DECADES before even hearing back from the department of immigration. Now, imagine that your family is at risk of being robbed, being killed, or even dying of starvation due to the corrupt state of Mexican government. What would you do? As a fellow Latin American, it truly is disappointing to see that some would rather side with xenophobic propaganda than with one another.

The Dutch were quite successful in the early 17th century and throughout that century in establishing communities and civility. They actually defeated England to take New York back but then gave it back under the Treaty of Westminster in 1674. Hence, the name New York still stands. 8:33 is kind of funny though, it was the Japanese who dismantled European countries in Asia and forced their empires to pack up and leave Asia. It was the white man who was made to move in that instance.

Correction: The first successful colony in what today is the continental United States was established by Spain in 1565 in St. Augustine, Florida, NOT in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia. Plus, Jamestown was not very successful, as it was abandoned in 1699. For that reason, Jamestown doesn't even qualify as the second-oldest successful colony: that title goes to Santa Fe, New Mexico (1607). The third-oldest colony is today called Hampton, Virginia (1610). As for your emphasis on the negative aspects of Columbus and the Spanish, other Europeans (e.g., the British, the French and the Dutch) brought death and destruction to the native people of America, too.

[@cs-mh2dh]

The truth of the first settlers is: They were people who wanted freedom of religion. They became farmers and friends of the indigenous people. British government learned of the rich soil and multitude of land and brought in soldiers and (what they deemed leaders) to take over and rule. That was when the greed began. They ended up surpressing the settlers to do the famr work and work the British plantations while the British people flourished from the crops. When cotton and tobacco became a huge economic growth, the British acquired tremendously large plantations. That was when the British brought the African slaves to the United States. If you research how our government formed, you would understand that the founding forefathers (settlers) were the conservatives fighting to free themselves from the British governing and free slavery. The liberals were the British fighting to keep their slavery and rein over the people. This is where Republican and Democratic originates. Since the British (Democrats) lost the civil war, within that same year they established the first secret society (KKK). Founding forefathers were settlers that were not out to manipulate the natives of the land. European British government brought greed and corruption. Even after the civil war the Democrats have continued with their greed. This is why corruption remains in our government. This is why the Declaration of the Constitution was established. To protect the people of the land from government. Immigration is what made this country what it is. But people seem to forget about the people who were already here. I have yet to see these people flourish when they should have been the first to do so. Today, immigration by the masses is the worst a country can do. That is why the United States has always helped foreign countries to help slow down the immigration. Once you are over crowded, the nation is on the brink of destruction and everyone who lives on the land. Economy plunges downward, laws are harder to enforce, crime goes up, food becomes too scarce. At some point you have to control the immigration. Look at Europe today with immigration. The United States is headed for the same disaster. The Middle East have been at war for centuries and are now migrating by the thousands at a time and creating cultural annihalation. No assimilation. This is what NWO looks like. The ony way countries can avoid losing their cultures is to break away from the United Nation.

One pithy issue that's often unmentioned is how all of the 19th Century immigration limitations and exclusions didn't pertain to the rest of this hemisphere, only to transoceanic immigration. Latin America was not targeted until the 20th Century. During the Mexican Revolution, 1910-1920, in hopes of garnering inroads into Mexico's nationalized oil fields, the US essentially opened its borders to Mexican refugees. The Mexican civil war took more than a million civilian lives but hundreds of thousands had crossed into the US for refuge and many stayed, legally.

You're wrong in some parts, Cristóbal Colón or Christopher Columbus never arrived to the east coast of the USA, he arrived to other countries located more south like Cuba and later Mexico (because the spanish King and queen hired him to discover new ways to arrive to Asia, mainly India, also people from New Spain (now called Mexico) was a big country from Honduras to Alta California [California nowadays]); this includes Texas (were the majority were british), because the government of the New Spain wasn't pay attention to their northern states Texas decided to "separate of New Spain by it's own, then this state asked to the USA if Texas can be part of this country, but America says "NO", but later when the USA became an oficial country (independent from the UK), it's governors of that were looking for expand their terrority, so now this time America's government say "YES" to Texas and joined to the USA and later they invaded Mexico City (the capital of Mexico) so they can get Alta California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and part of the Utah state, finally the spanish conquerors sell to America the state of Florida and all the coast of the Gulf of Mexico that belongs today to the USA

Remove the quotation marks from Native in the video description. Natives ARE indigenous. You are expressing racist and incorrect views by claiming that Natives are not indigenous.

You can see that in the first USA Census in 1790 (5:07) after America became independent state on 4th of July 1776 vast majority of Americans were from England (the second most numerous Americans were from Africa). The others were other British (Scottish, Welsh and "Irish"), immigrants from present day Germany and Netherlands (others were mostly Native Americans who are descendants of Siberian nomadic ethnic groups). English people are Protestants (Scottish people and Welsh people are also Protestants), and immigrants from Ireland were Scottish people from Ulster, immigrants from Germany and Netherlands came from Protestant part of both countries, America was established as a Protestant Christian country, Catholics were small minority who came from Protestant part of Europe and didn't became Protestant during the Protestant Reformation (majority of European American Catholic Christians came to America later in the 19th and 20th century). The real number of English Americans today are people who declare they are of English and American descent combined (their number is slightly bigger than the number of German Americans who are officially the most numerous ancestry group in USA)!

[@westernessence7644]

Indian populations today are flourishing and they have their own areas which they have literally control over. They're not even subject to many Federal laws or state laws and I think that's good; and I think that they have a right to preserve their heritage. Their population figures were never huge in these huge vast Americas; and there were migrations of people historically; but there's no need to assign a terrible guilt to Europeans any more than there's need to assign guilt to Indians because of some of their actions in the past.

[@brendancrazy1]

+Robert Bump The native populations exceeded that of Europe at the time of conquest.

[@westernessence7644]

Brendan Foster Wrong!

[@westernessence7644]

***** When you look at the struggle between Europeans and Indians many hundreds of years ago now; and you look at that struggle...Well, the truth is Indian tribes themselves had struggle among their own people. It's the law of life, you can't condemn European peoples for that anymore than you condemn Indians for the fact that the Aztec conquered other tribes; you can't condemn that anymore than you can condemn the Cherokee Indians for wiping out the Mound people; And (btw) they built no reservations for them. But, I actually admire the spirit of the Indian peoples standing up for themselves and I honor them; and I also honor the European people for the same value system.

[@karthikc641]

+Robert Bump i m Indian.I heard many US citizens hate Indians.

[@westernessence7644]

karthik chevuru I'm a European American that certainly wants to preserve my European culture, and heritage, and values; and at the same time I really admire, and I respect the Indian culture. And there have been many Americans, leading Americans from the earliest times of colonialism who also respected Indian culture and who worked hard to make sure that Indian culture wasn't wiped out (that they had reservations) unlike the Mound people who were wiped out and Genocided. I celebrate when the Indians of the Southwest say, 'We want to preserve our culture, we want to preserve our heritage, our genealogy, we want to preserve our ways'. I Clap my Hands. I actually admire the spirit of the Indian peoples standing up for themselves and I honor them; and I also honor the European people for the same value system.

Unrestrained immigration, legal or llegal destroys the standard of living of the American Working Class. This is a documented historical fact. In 1960, Beef packing was unionized and was one of the best paid industrial jobs in America. Now it's one of the worst jobs in the nation. Immigrants were a big part of making that happen. "development of new corporate strategies fundamentally transformed the capital-labor relationship and led to the collapse of industrial unionism in meatpacking. Most important were the industry's development of new technologies, its geographical reorganization of production, and its ability to locate new sources of cheap, nonunion labor. " They went down to the poorest parts of Mexico and bussed that cheap nonunion labor all the way to the American Midwest. Bonus points for not passing the savings onto the consumer and pocketing the profits. Source: wox.sagepub.com/content/30/3/327.abstract migration.ucdavis.edu/rmn/more.php?id=144_0_2_0 If you want to speed up the American race to the bottom open the floodgates of Mexican cheap labor.

[@Etatdesiege1979]

False. during the 1950's the largest country of immigration was: MEXICO and the standard of living were the highest ever. WHY? Because taxes on the rich were the highest too. At the same time, poverty in many parts of the country was so bad and segregation was the law of the land in a third of the country. Finally, it's easy to have high wages an benefits when all your competitors are barely recovering from being blown to pieces after two World Wars and you control 80% of world trade. This pontificating and moralizing about how superior and virtuous the (white) American working class is or was is nothing but a narrative and propaganda created to keep people fighting among themselves while the rich get richer on their looting of the wealth of the country.

You think these Indian tribes weren't racist?

[@westernessence7644]

The Spanish and Portuguese ruthlessly exploited the native population of the Americas, and those aboriginals they did not kill in war, disease often dispatched. The discovery of precious metals such as gold and silver and the vast tracts of land then in possession of the native population to develop the resources. Spanish rulers were spread thin in the immense empire, a tiny minority in a sea of color. Because the physical and psychological charter of the Indians adapted poorly to servitude, in some regions, to satisfy their need for laborers, they imported Black slaves from Africa. Living in a land with few White women but ample Indian maidens and Black slave women, mixed liaisons and marriages were common, although such unions were looked down upon by the more aristocratic classes, who often sent their sons and daughters home to Spain to find a husband or wife. In addition to Spain and Portugal, Great Britain, France and Holland also had Colonies and possessions in the Western Hemisphere. In this vast expanse, only the 13 American Colonies and Canada had White majorities. Thus America and Canada became overwhelming White nations, while the Caribbean, central, and South America remained mostly non-White, except for a veneer of White leadership and control.

Not everyone knows important thing about the slavery. At that time, 200 years ago, slavery was verry common all around the world. European countries traded slaves (and killed tens of millions). Arabs traded slaves from Sudan etc. etc. If anything, the US was amoung the first countries that abolished the slavery.

[@richyrich6099]

No, the US was actually one of the last ones to abolish it. By the time we were fighting the Civil War, the slave trade had been over for about six decades and with that gone, the vast majority of the world stopped slavery. We were one of the last countries to end the institution of legal slavery.

[@1158supersiri]

Richy Rich It's not true. Arabs enslaved blacks from Sudan until the 20th century.

[@richyrich6099]

1158supersiri Not legal slavery and, even then, those account not for the majority of the planet. I said legal slavery. The US would still be one of the last nations to end legal slavery.

[@1158supersiri]

Richy Rich Very legal slavery. Arabs and European were the biggest enslavers in History (btw africans traded slaves themselves - other africans from another tribe). So go and learn History and realize USA is not the big devil.

[@richyrich6099]

1158supersiri I never said it was, but you're the one who made the statement that "American was one of the first to end slavery." Totally untrue. First of all, there are about 300 independent entities on the planet, Arabian countries make up perhaps ten or twenty of those. If anything you say is true, then the US would still be last place for Western countries and be on par with the countries you are mentioning now. I fail to see how that makes America "one of the first." I also know for a fact that not every Arabian country practices slavery, so that further invalidates your argument that "America is one of the first to abolish slavery," and I'm pretty sure there are much less than 20 total Arabian countries, probably 10 at most.

[@menelao3288]

Damn this documentary is bull, I just started watching it hoping this was something interesting and it already started with crap. Spanish people didn’t wipe natives, they conquered the aztecs with help of opposite tribes; come on, just look at mexicans, they are mostly native, some mestizos!

Most Mexicans are mestizo, not "some". The average Mexican is actually mostly European.

[@menelao3288]

LOL, Ever being to Mexico? The average Mexican might have some lefts of spaniard ancestry. But not even 10 % of Mexicans have predominant European features… I've lived in 3 different cities, and visited more than 16 Different Mexican states… don't come to lecture me with your stupidity please!!

[@menelao3288]

***** also, mixing is not wiping, so I stand with my point this documental is bs.

[@ViralsexY2K98]

Menelao I reaaaaly doubt you've ever stepped foot in Mexico. DNA studies prove most have significant European ancestry, in fact, they prove that most are mostly European(55-64%) on average. You must have very selective sight if you only see indigenous looking Mexicans, oh wait, you wouldn't notice a white looking one if someone like you had such a small ignorant brain cause you'd just see them as another white person.

[@ViralsexY2K98]

When did I say that Mexicans with 55% European ancestry look "European"? That would make them mixed race, which would give them European and indigenous features. And why do you use a 100 year old census? Knowing Mexico and it's history, the 10% were most likely people of 100% European ancestry or with ties to Europe, meaning people of 70-99% European ancestry would count them selves as mixed, since that was the ideal citizen promoted by the government. And yeah, a Mexican who says "vos"....like a true Mexican would....
