Another drawback, that is apparent in Tijuana, Mexico, is that a divided economy emerges between those with access to foreign ccurrency/remittances and those without access. It destroys the natural supply and demand equilibrium making basic living unaffordable for many as realestate, etc., appreciate. The local economy evolves to serve those with foreign currency. The appreciation of the local currency was discussed, but mostly on a macro level. The local consequences are worth another video. Tijuana is a particularly interesting case because it is situated right on the border, across from California, US, so people cross daily to work, which creates a deep divide between those with dollars and those without.

Lets start; In sharp contrast to today’s American "undocumented population," _illegal European immigrants_ of the past faced few *legal* repercussions. There was virtually no immigration enforcement infrastructure. If caught, few faced deportation. All of those who entered *unlawfully* before the 1940s were protected from deportation by statutes of limitations, or were given amnesty. Many can tell where this is going already... Within the span of a few decades from the late 19th to the early 20th century, the United States was transformed from a predominately rural agrarian society to an industrial economy, and owners of production required the labor. Today, we see the same dynamic of migrant labor when needed, but with the modern twist of returning these laborers back to their country of origination once their role is complete. These modern immigrants, and their successive families, are not allowed to reap the generational financial benefits of their servitude.

It is also important to point out that while this video describes the economics of migrant labor in general, it does not focus on the humanitatian consequences, particularly for countries like Qatar. Many of the "migrant jobs" in countries like Qatar are near enslavement with horrific living and working conditions, and workers are frequently prevented from leaving the country by employers withholding their worker's passports. Definitely worth researching if you are interested, especially because there are plenty of sources more qualified than EE or this KZitem video commenter to discuss these topics.

I am from a small town in Bulgaria - not that poor country as of now, but wages used to be very low 15- 20 years ago, so there were/are a lot Bulgarians working in Western Europe. My father worked in Germany for 6 years. Reduction in labour participation is definitely a thing, especially when you have your own house and live in a village/small town. If you work fulltime (if you find a job; in most small towns there just weren't enough work opportunities), you are going to make 40-50 euro a month, which doesn't cover living expenses like food and bills, so why bother if you get money from your parent(s) working abroad. There is also the humanitarian side - a lot of kids are basically raised by their grandparents and see their parent(s) once or twice a year if they are working abroad illegally (best case scenario) or are on their own and receive money /are just abandoned (worst case scenario). I don't think there was currency appreciation, but our currency has been tied to the Deutsche Mark/Euro since 1997. However, at one point the property prices were in Deutsche Marks. In a economy like this there are some peculiar business opportunities. About 20 years ago it was feasible to buy broken or defective second-hand cars and appliances from Germany, The Netherlands or Italy, repair and sell them in some small town, because people didn't have money for new ones ("Made in China" was still unheard of, aside from knock-off Nintendos, so TVs, computers, PS especially were very expensive relatively - maybe about 6 months salary; having a new car was a sign that you are making big money, probably an affluent business owner or involved in extortion/drugs/human trafficking).

I suppose it is reasonable to extrapolate that if remittances inflate the value of the receiving country's currency, they must also deflate the value of the host country's currency but to a smaller degree. With Canada having one of the highest ratios in the world of foreign-born inhabitants, I'm curious how significant an effect remittances have on the CAD against the USD. As a Canadian, I'm acutely aware of the pros and cons of a weak dollar against the US. Canada's film industry has done exceptionally well because of the disparity, but with economic nationalism policies growing under both Trump and Biden, it seems like the list of cons for Canadians is starting to heavily outweigh the list of pros.

Hey! I'm sure you didn't mean any offence... but the map at 8:26 of India fails to show the northeast part of India which is a key part of the country! Hope you can fix this issue to avoid unwanted backlash

I have an interesting tidbit to add to this discussion. The population of Qatar would not be 90% migrants if it weren't for some of the most restrictive citizenship requirements in the world. There are multi-generational families in Qatar who are still "temporary residents" even though it was their grandparents or even great grandparents who immigrated to Qatar. Even children of Qatari women married to non-Qataris, born in Qatar, are NOT Qatari citizens at birth. These types of citizenship rules are common in the GCC and other Arab countries. Part of the reason for this is that Qatari citizens enjoy huge perks and welfare benefits that the "locals" don't want to share, and that the government cannot afford to extend to so many more people. Side note: this is also part of the reason GCC countries (Qatar, UAE, etc) have so little crime. Basically the locals are showered with money and everyone else has the threat of deportation constantly hanging over their heads!

@@shauncameron8390 The difference is that there is basically no defined process of naturalization at all. Like I said, there are people born in Qatar, to parents born in Qatar, to grandparents born in Qatar, to GREAT grandparents who immigrated to Qatar, and they're STILL not citizens. They speak the language, know the culture, contributed to the enormous development of the country, and have no path to citizenship. I can't think of very many countries where that would be the case.

Qatar is sitting on massive wealth that it has earned by selling its abundant natural resources to developed countries. It then transfers a great deal of this accumulated wealth to poor nations whose only exportable resource seems to be abundant people. I don't see that dynamic as the problem here. Qatar's alternative would have been to use that wealth to buy homes for its people in Europe. The issue seems to be with the salaries that Qataris pay migrant workers. But these in turn are driven by the huge number of people that want to work in Qatar. Supply exceeds demand. There doesn't seem to be a simple solution here. In fact, it seems that the only people protesting this arrangement are sitting in Europe. Things won't change until the migrants stop going to Qatar or their home countries stop pushing them to go.

This video is very one-sided. There are also many negatives that can come from migration that effect locals of certain countries. Population increase means more demand for houses and services in an area, creating more competition for the locals. There are also often cultural differences which can cause harm to the hosting society.

I have a strong objection about the WRONG INDIAN MAP, that you have shown in your video. I watch your videos regularly, and I find them informative. But this Map gimmick that you pulled off, just points out your biased views of the world politics. And as a Indian, it pains me to see this much of a hypocrisy from the west and the "educators' like you. In your Turkey video, did you put Cyprus under disputed territory? No In your Chinese videos, did you put, Tibet, Inner Mangolia, some part of China and Taiwan as a disputed territory? NO In your Ukraine and Russian video, did you mark Ukraine as a disputed territory? NO Then why this biased behaviour against India only?
