Jim Slams the Proposal for a Citizenship Question on the U.S. Census - The Jim Jefferies Show

Комедия

Jim addresses the Trump administration's move to add a citizenship question to the U.S. census and lists the reasons why immigrants are justifiably skeptical of answering it.
The Jim Jefferies Show airs Tuesdays at 10:30/9:30c on Comedy Central.

    Fun fact: most non-citizens (legal residents, but also through sales and other taxes many illegals) also pay taxes. And many citizens don't. But the Constitution is quite clear that payment of taxes is not a requirement for the rights it guarantees to everyone living here. If it were, most corporations would not be so quick to look for off-shore tax havens.

    Americans constantly resent being judged as stereotypes by foreigners. Yet we have no trouble stereotyping every single foreigner ourselves and telling the world what they 'should' be doing. Jim Jefferies is a great thinker, giving us a perspective from the outside world about so many ridiculous things we're doing. Maybe we should listen. Even if you don't agree with him, at least listen.

    I'm not American, but I dislike Trump and the global implications of his policies scare me... That aside... I kinda feel "Are you a U.S citizen?" Is a fair, non-racist question... Yes it invites illegal immigrants to incriminate themselves... But from the perspective of a sovereign state I don't see how it's racist or wrong... My own country (Nigeria) is experiencing waves of violence brought on by immigrants from when Ghadaffis Libya collapsed... I don't hate em... They are also victims of circumstance and other peoples foreign policy... But I kinda wish we had better control of our boarders and immigrants here couldn't inflate census's and inflame already tense cultural fracas. Basically... I detest Trump... But think this bit on census seems reasonable. Just my opinion... (If ur mad or want to diss, save ur energy... I never reply anything unreasonable on the internet... I just find it pointless)

    Well, it doesn't look racist on its face - what's racist is rather why the quesiton is being asked and what will be done with that information. The thing is, putting this question on there means that fewer nonwhite non-citizens are going to be responding to the census - because, frankly, telling this racist-as-fuck administration that you're an immigrant is just asking for trouble. Look at who the Turnip chose as his first pardon.

    Normally it wouldn't be racist, but the US has a history of taking every possible measure to disadvantage people of color. If our government, especially our current government, wasn't so keen on that, I'd probably say its fine. Unfortunately, we've had trouble with it in the past: the 3/5ths clause, what Jeffries said about internment camps, and all sorts of other things. Also, the census has to count everyone living in the country. ICE will use census data to deport people, so some people living here may not answer (legal or not, ICE has a bad history). This undermines the purpose of the census. In short, the specific circumstances in the USA make this question sketchy, and we've done just fine without it for over 60 years. Racism in America is a very finicky thing.

    Optikor the only difference is how they use it in other countries as compared to how they will use that information here. You all have different history than we do also, maybe not to far off but if we are number one in anything it is racism. Throughout history it we have dominated through religious wars, land grabs and wars for oil and other resources, and it has always been. When it looks like anybody is getting more than us, or even might end up having more than us we demonize them with propaganda, mock their culture and point out all that is different. This is just another way to do that, they will cut funding to the areas that have the highest non citizens and the whole city, county ect will feel the effects. Then who does the blame fall on? They know we will blame the immigrants and not the government, they know we vote against our combined better interests when they keep us fighting and that's why this is racist. It is bait my friend, don't bite it!

    Asking your citizenship isn't racist. Its simple. The census is used to determine the amount of money that goes to an area for the amount of citizens the locality has. Localities should not receive more money because they have illegal immigrants there.

    James Hill because our money should only go towards the benefit of our citizens. I also know you can be a citizen of another nation and be here legally but my view is if you cannot stand on your own feet without assistance you shouldn't be here. Even Mexico requires immigrants to be able to survive without government help, same with Canada. If you cannot you shouldn't have legal status here to ensure you are a benefit to this nation and not a burden.

Fuck it, let's even get rid of public schools and hospitals altogether - if you can't figure out how to live a fully self-sufficient life then fuck you, you don't deserve to live at all.

    I did the census in 2000...they asked if you were a legal citizen I believe somewhere. One of the Mexicans asked my Crew Leader, when showing him his check, how to get the money back from taxes since he's not a citizen. He told him that wouldn't be a good idea. But you can always lie, which many probably did or didn't do. Which is why the people go door to door. It's only houses in question that are known.
