I wonder what happens when every country acts like this.

    Historically, many rich countries have acted this way. It’s how my dirt poor British ancestors ended up in rural Newfoundland. You don’t decide to board a rickety boat to a place you’ve only seen in pictures if your life is going well.

    Right, and I really doubt there will be any new 1920's Americas to emigrate too any time soon. I really hope the US can elect someone new. Some of these new candidates gaining traction aren't corporate sponsored, which really gives me hope personally.
