Human Caravan from Honduras - USA
We are in a war, in Afghanistan? No! It's America, thousands of people walking for an opportunity. It is no longer the wars that mobilize people, but the need or opportunity in the face of poverty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfJ_z8XYVkQ&feature=emb_title A Caravan that started in Honduras a few weeks ago has become a movement of hundreds and thousands of people along the way. Among the reasons that are considered why these episodes occur, poverty, the little opportunity in Honduras and Latin America, earthquakes that hit the country and the voice of the people who claim that opportunities exist in the United States. I find it extremely interesting the number of people trying to achieve a goal, they are not 100, they are not 500, there are thousands of humans trying to forcibly enter different countries to continue their journey What is the optimism of the Honduran caravan? To which people from Mexico and nearby countries are added Biden the president-elect of the United States will improve immigration policy reasons? Biden in his proposals before the public mentions that he will remove some extreme measures proposed by Donald Trump While hundreds of Latin American families move with their children, older adults throughout Central America, more aggressiveness by the police is increasing. In the beginning they managed to pass without problem, the police were reluctant to use force when they saw that there were children and the elderly, but in the last points near the United States the police have increased their aggressiveness using tear gas and brute force to stop the movement. What information can be extracted from these geographical movements ***Necessity and opportunity lead humans to perform extremely risky actions*** ***We are more and more people and the needs of the population are increasing*** ***If a movement for a social opportunity is generated, many people will quickly join*** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWNlHiDz0g4&feature=emb_title

This event mirrors what has happened repeatedly throughout history. Mass migrations presage the fall of empires. ---- Silly governments always waste the opportunity of the century in favor of trying to either repel or enslave rather than redirect all that energy into constructing new societies. So many nonviolent solutions exist. ---- Instead of "In the beginning they managed to pass without problem, the police were reluctant to use force when they saw that there were children and the elderly, but in the last points near the United States the police have increased their aggressiveness using tear gas and brute force to stop the movement." they should be looking for ways to entice these people to find places to settle and build. This is what has built successful societies in the past - finding ways to give people a way to live without oppression creates wealth.
