They can try. All you have to do is get to Mexico somehow and then wade across the shallow part of Eagle Pass in Texas. I don't know if you need permission from the cartel though. The border partrol will make you stand together as a group and put you on a bus to be in-processed in a nearby facility after an hour or two. You will be given you a court date for your asylum request immigration hearing which you can safely ignore. You will never have legal status after this illegal entry but your paperwork is enough to get a drivers license in many places and you will not be deported unless you complain or otherwise make yourself known. You can just repeat the process later on if this doesn't work out the first time. After that buses chartered by an NGO will bring you from the processing center to a major metropolitan area like New York City. You will be given free housing and food.

these would not all be drug users, right? most of them would start a successful life in America

Not drug users, just a little bit of population replacement and cultural genocide with those more desperate to work and have children in order to transfer illegal status to legal status (green card) and eventually citizenship after some time elapses.

> Permissive immigration is cultural genocide

Wow! Never could have expected that twist from your parent comment /s

If any culture needs genociding, it's the one that uses phrases like "cultural genocide" unironically.

Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

Their numbers may be much greater if housing were guaranteed.

I am not 100% sure what the NGOs do when they arrive in NYC but it seems that they do get hotel rooms fully paid for by the NGOs. What is more surprising is the huge amount of new stuff they purchase and discard. The whole thing is completely orchestrated by people and organizations with HUGE amounts of money. I don't understand what they are trying to accomplish. I don't fully understand how the migrants can afford to waste so much either, it's insane: https://t.me/retardsoftiktok/15550

Why would the right to housing stop in san francisco?

Most places can do this. The US can do it. Everything contrary is just excuses.

San Francisco has better placement than 99,9% of Earth.

Most of places on Earth has snow, heat waves, no coasts, biting insects, or a combination of that. They are also not located in the richest country, in a place which historically produces jobs.

So, under this regime specifically San Francisco will get population influx until it is not usable for absolute majority of people (think a bro dormitory the size of SF), and that process will be repeated for many other lucrative locations on Earth (heck, many cities are arguably already going that route).

I don't see how free housing differs from sacrificing every place you like to tragedy of the commons on grand scale, until there is nothing for you to like there anymore and you move on yourself.

Other than that, there are places on Earth with basically free housing. Check out Vorkuta.
