Title: Black market travel agents....
Post by: Anonymous on September 26, 2010, 05:42:17 AM
I can see a market need in travel agents who offer an underground evacuation service from countries.....or even an above board travel agency for those who need it.

Perhaps paid in bitcoins?

:D

I'd be interested in this, as a customer.

No need for something like this, the southern american boarder is wide open. Come or leave freely. Millions do it every day. They are all coming though.

Im talking about overseas countries here :).

It takes a mot more effort to cross an ocean....

Heh, that is so not true in so many aspects... For a Brazilian individual to visit the States there's visas to take care of and then there's the all common 3rd degree on the walk in. I so understand the reason, as without that the poor savage indians would all flock to the civilized America and steal all the jobs.

But I did meet a bunch of North Americans in Brazil, and they really wished they could just drop everything and go live there, and also a few wealthy Brazilians that usually had vacations in Europe, as the US of A made it very clear they were not welcome.

I could be biased, though, and only see a small subset of the reality, but then again, so could you :p

These already exist.  They are called coyotes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coyote_%28smuggler%29#Coyotes)...

I am definitely biased haha. I'm saying there is no security on the american southern border.

Sure, if you want to come here the right way, good luck. That's why everyone sneaks in because it is impossible to jump through all the bureaucratic bullshit to do it right.

Ha, ok, I misunderstood you. You are correct then, although the mentioned coyotes actually have a business model that depends on borders being heavily guarded. I have a couple of friends that have used these "services" and, believe me, you wouldn't want to subject yourself to it. The survival rate is not all that good...

"Bien venido a Tijuana, con el coyote no ai aduana." (the spelling might be wrong)

Maybe, or maybe I'm just tired of taking all my laptops out of their cases when my family travels.

Maybe I just want to join the free state project  :P

The thought of jumping through beauracratic hoops to do my own thing doesn't appeal at all. I would rather get a flight in a cargo plane full of chickens than fill out paperwork . :D

Sometimes the paperwork requires you to incriminate yourself.....

But paperwork, records and statistics is what keeps the very fabric of society in place! Imagine if there was no record of how and where you spend your money, or of who you do business with. Then how could that great parenting institution we call the Government know what is in our best interest to be done, so they can tell us, show us what our best interest is? We would be totally lost without paperwork and pretty much left to our own devices.

Just think that you might have to make your own decisions based on your own knowledge and opinions, without having someone telling you what you should do, what would work best for you. You would be lost, man!

And the financial institutions, the base stones of our happy lifes? They would not know how to best service our accounts...

"Get over here, drop your pants and bend over so we can... *ahem*... service your account!"
