How about stop being lazy and research the answers yourself? Those claims and numbers can be easily proven or debunked. "Burden of proof" my ass. Burden of being lazy is the problem.
The numbers are from the World bank at the time the video was made. They don't like the visual aid cause it's to real. And the whole "people are not gumballs."

can you prove that it is not flat, in a manner that will satisfy flat earthers? or are you just too lazy to invent a space elevator?

I am unable to convince those who cannot see the curvature of the Earth when looking at the Ocean because they are that retarded. Unlike Elon Musk, I am not so deluded I think I am Tony Stark. A space elevator is beyond me, sadly I will leave that to DarthSkywalker to construct from mechano or lego.
You cannot just disagree with someone. Anyone can disagree. You must prove your position.
What internet morons like to do is just say, "burden of proof."
Pretend dude A says 33 people ate watermelon at the party because he counted all the people who had watermelon on their plates from the photos.
Dude B disagrees. Okay, great. Prove your disagreeable position. What truth is it that you wish to assert? That there were less? More? That there was no watermelon?
Disagreeing is not a position. Asserting another position, which is just as burden proofy as the original, is possible.
In other words, stop being a coward and take a stance. Disagreeing is a cowards way out and does nothing.
No, you're just not hearing what you want to hear, and you don't know what you're ****ing talking about.
Roy Beck argues that immigration hurts the immigrant's home country's economy, while doing next to nothing for people as humanitarian cause because there are still billions of poorer people in the world...
I don't know of anyone who claimed immigration to wealthier developed countries was the solution to world poverty. Humanitarianism takes a utilitarian approach of helping as many people as possible--the numbers that count--and was never an all-or-nothing endeavor. The only thing he suggested that I found agreeable was the need to develop impoverished countries, but he shared no ideas of his own on how to do so. Infrastructure, technology, agriculture, and potable water programs seem like a good start.
Whatever losses in raw GDP a country might experience are often recouped, and then some, via remittances from immigrants who now make enough to support themselves AND their families back home.
The one and the same, yet once again, you assume I'll defend Democrats simply because they're Democrats and not Republicans. The DNC absolutely ****ed over Sanders, and though the Trump alternative was worse, the Democrats worked hard to earn that loss by being complicit with the establishment status quo.
It was a shitty thing to do, and by doing selling out the more popular Democratic candidate, they sold out a great chunk of their progressive base on top of losing the election. **** them for that.
