Himtulie247: Exactly, immigrants are resilient. They came to North America well prepared. They don't expect anything from the government being immigrants. Besides, they honor their respect and dignity. If they don't go homeless the of length of years it takes to get residency papers. Why would they afterwards except addiction is a factor? |

There is no place on this earth that it is easy as some people may see it. Once you are not from a wealthy family, you will have to struggle to make a living and if God blesses you more, you see yourself among the wealthy people class. The only difference between Nigeria and the developed countries is the structure of their systems most especially when it comes to the worth of their currency, imagine working for a month and getting something like $1500 even after removing your taxes, you are still better than someone doing thesame job in Nigeria. 1 Like |

Pinkybae: You just mentioned people with peculiar problems, so it's not a case of USA not working but some can't get jobs or earn money for personal issues ? Sounds fairer than Nigeria where all your hard work will not guarantee a good standard of living. People in Nigerian IDP camps are less comfy than this. Yet army will come there and kill them 1 Like |

TNORWAY: Well, compare yourself to me to your own peril. I have been in united states before you were born. If you were born after 1993 I have been here before you made it out to the world. Then and now are different times. Residency papers are extremely hard to get now. Cost of living and unemployment is extremely high. Even citizens and residents are doing menial jobs they wouldn't ordinarily accept in good times. And supply side of employment is narrowing the options of undocumented immigrants. But keep comparing yourself to me. I can never understand why some of you think you can come to America or anywhere in the West and equate yourself with those who has been here for over 10 years. This place is not Nigeria. There's no cutting corners. You've to pay your dues and earn anything you own. You must go through that process of fire before you get established. There's no free lunch in America. |

InyinyaAgbaOku: You people tend to see everything dark and bleak about Nigeria. While in fact, the nation is tax haven, literally no bills. You're working to pay taxes and bills in the west at the end, you're left with nothing for your basic needs. Why on earth do you think people do multiple jobs here? You're basically working for the system. It's worse for small business owners that get taxed heavily. Report less amount you made from your business and see yourself in prison for tax evasion. Nigeria comes with abundant freedom you guys don't appreciate. 1 Like |

Christian36: I suggest you do a lot of research. Stop calculating the monetary values in terms of naira / dollar exchange rate. You do not spend in naira, you spend in dollars. The $1500 you mentioned won't pay monthly rent for one bedroom apartment in New York area. We pay monthly rent unlike home you pay annually. 1 Like |

Pinkybae: In Euro UK and America I sleep at the train station at the airport it is not I do not have money but most of the Times it midnight train you travel or Transit. UK I have slept at a lot of train station and Heathrow Airport and Gatwick because at 9 there is no vehicle which is moving around or transport to get to the place so when you are right you have to wait there until the morning. Does people do not look like homeless look at their dressing. Even in Nigeria it is the same thing I sleep at from transport companies because at night there is no transport which is moving All of this Nigerian illiterate we criticize another country but never come home. This is the height of illiteracy |

Pinkybae: And why are those people you tag suffering not coming in droves to Nigeria? See how you cherrypicked the menial jobs to drive your point with . Only menial job workers who have black tax to pay to sustain their relatives in third world countries do that 3 job stuff. Their doctors, nurses, lawyers , plumbers , etc don't. Job type for job type, unemployed for unemployed, the quality of life is better in the USA than here. Your issue is that you are comparing the lifestyle of a cleaner there to a bank manager in Nigeria, though the former enjoys a better security and is exposed to social amenities and social benefits. Compare cleaner for cleaner for the two countries and see how far . At least they are even seeing 3 jobs to do per person , to get even one job in Nigeria no be yawa? Please, quit this disgraceful comparison. The only indices you should use to float in the favour of Nigeria are Food varieties , not ever affordability o (cos food is the most expensive commodity in naija). |

InyinyaAgbaOku: Americans believe in their country- Despite joblessness and homelessness altogether hopelessness, they remain patriotic to their nation. Something that you need to learn seriously from them. Americans who move to foreign countries do so for adventure and passion. They didn't run away out of resentment for their country. At least, they stayed back to build their nation understanding it's their civil responsibility to their nation. Even other African countries in worst situation than Nigeria still love and respect their nations. The unpatriotism Edit: I came to United States in 1993. Nigeria was great . I wasn't running away for anything. I am certainly running back next year to contribute to my nation in my capacity. Finally, Sorry, you've to do those three jobs before you qualify to practice those professions in America. Even if you're graduates of those discipline from Nigeria, you won't practice with your Nigerian degree. You've to upgrade your degree to American standard and afterwards study for your licensing exams. You can't practice with licensure. Above all you can't go back to school without residency green card because you can't afford tuition without student loan. And you can't get student loan without green card. Many of you have no idea how anything works here. And above all, you'll will need to start resetting your perception, morals and values for instantaneous gratification of things without process of earning them. You pull that stunt here you'll end up in prison. There's no cutting corners and there's no help from anyone. To think, you'd come off from Nigeria jump into the hospital to start practicing as a doctor and quickly scooping dollars is a delusional fantasy. You've to invest time, hard work, money education years before you get to that point. Until then, you need multiple jobs to support yourself. It's hard to get work visa in the US Now. You might want to consider Canada π¨π¦ Even at that you'll need recalibrate your life ( starting all over) |

Pinkybae: It takes a lot to be jobless in this America, stop talking rubbish. Hopelessness where? Oga, no dey cap nonsense, you aren't talking to a local champion. If bank managers resign and pick up care work in the UK for eg, it shows people aren't moving just for the money. Americans and western Europeans have every reason to be patriotic . Same can't be said of Nigerians where the leaders aren't even patriotic - the politicians seek healthcare elsewhere, educate their kids elsewhere , and all that all because they don't even believe in the country they govern. They also use foreign goods and deprive their citizens of the right to choose their leaders. Came that be said of Denmark for eg? |
