Global free movement and “safe”, orderly mass migration should be a right for all poor and unskilled migrants from the third world, according to the director general of the United Nations’ Migration Agency.
Penning an article for International Migrants Day entitled, “Our Right of Passage Should Be Safe Migration”, International Organization for Migration (IOM) chief William Lacy Swing opined that the right of “safe migration” should not be limited to the “global elite” – of which the “privileged” caste he believes to include tourists, students, and legal migrant workers – but should be extended to those who would “have no chance of getting a visa or work permit”.
“While we live in a time when a privileged elite considers global mobility virtually a birth-right, it is denied to countless others, trapped in hopelessly bad economic or conflict circumstances,” Swing writes, lamenting that “hundreds of millions who are not part of the growing, truly global labour talent market find themselves outside looking in, and looking onto a world they can only dream of.”

We need to withdraw from the UN and kick them out of the country.
One world government talking here,global elites pushing hard to encompass us into it and democrats for destroying America doing all they can to help.
It is the fault of the governments that those people wore born under, not the advanced countries. The UN should work on stabilizing those nations who have the poorest people on the planet, educate them and bring business' to these countries. Don't simply allow them to "migrate" to other countries and become burdensome on those countries economies.
As far as I can remember the US and private citizens have worked hard to improve their economy and way of life but have failed. These countries want what we have but do not want to work for it. Seems it has been proven over and over. We need to get out of the UN. Americans first and forever.
