On the supermarket prices, I am with you. In the last few months, I have notices several large price increases and inflation is supposedly under control now.

I am merely mentioning the fact that the Ngrave is not made in China because the crypto community has a poor relationship with China and made users want to avoid the use of Chinese made hardware wallets. There is no rule of law in China at all. Any Chinese company can be ordered to do what the CCP commands. The situation in the west is not as extreme.

Tanks for the comment. Not sure what it means, but thanks.

Yes I find a stubborn belief in the PS is very strong among many Portuguese people i know.

Thank you for the support. Chega is not perfect, but it is much better than the other alternatives for sure.

I fail to see how. I do not welcome poverty or encourage it. If it exists, so be it, but it is not a desirable outcome. The core message in this video was that immigration is exacerbating poverty in Portugal - which I feel it is. If people are poor, they need to get themselves out of poverty and it is not the role of the state to cure the problem. However, neither is it the role of the state to create conditions (mass immigration) which deepen poverty. The job of the state is simply to engender the conditions necessary for people to thrive economically. This involves measures like low taxes, maintaining the rule of law, and protecting citizens from external threats. Beyond this, there can be tailored initiatives to deal with issues that arise, but there should not be a permanent state involvement in service delivery when it comes to healthcare and education. Nor should a culture of dependency via the benefits system be allowed.

@@thecryptostrategist2433 I think your political edifice isn't very coherent: - you don't care about poverty... but then you do - your see the gilded age of the USA, before the welfare state was invented as a reference point... but that was a time when the USA received mass waves of very poor immigrats from all around the world, many of whom ended up living in slum-like conditions during their first decade or so in their new country. So why is it that what was good for the USA isn't good for Portugal? - "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" - you are in favour of Chega's 15% flat tax rate proposal, with the caveat that you think 15% may still be too high. But on a comment on another video you call for landlords to pay 100% tax in Portugal... - meh...

Yes they should. Those people need to have private healthcare.

May the next election bring strong results for Chega.

The more of us that do, the better things will become

The aging population excuse is not going to work. Japan has an aging population. So does Singapore. So do a lot of places. There are other solutions than importing millions of people from the 3rd world. The norm in the EU for citizenship is 5 years. As I pointed out in the video, Italy offers 4 years for EU nationals and 10 years for others. This is a good system. A flat tax is a beautiful solution that everyone can understand. Think of the accounting time it would save. I disagree with you that it would only benefit the wealthy and foreigners. Reducing the burden of the state benefits everyone. You call me a Brit and I am. However, I hold two EU nationalities in addition to my British passport. I think on that basis, i am more European than you are and I shall stay where I am thank you.

Thanks for the support

Anyone with a brain will hope that Chega wins the next election. However, I doubt it is possible. When i talk to many Portuguese people, their minds are closed about voting. They just vote PS because they always voted PS and their parents voted PS. In my area, the PS are very strong.

@@thecryptostrategist2433 50 years the most of Portugal was governed by PS and PSD, they have almost everything under Control... Its gonna BE very dificult to break this cicle but have been a very good job by chega what they have achieve until now

We can hope.

Yes it is quite distressing to see these kind of statistics in modern Europe.

Sure, bringing in millions of 3rd worlders is not linked at all to the fact that rents are going up and that people cannot find decent paying jobs. It is scandalous.

People, this guy is Brazilian, but as he now has European citizenship from Italy, he can speak badly and criticize Portugal as they have always done since they were little, as they always hated Portugal. He always writes this on several channels. Do you really want to be sitting down and answering phone calls and receiving 2000 euros in Portugal? If you study or learn a profession you can earn much more

I also hold an Italian passport + Ireland. I do not think Portugal is a joke. As a nation, it deserves respect. There are serious problems though - most linked to too much socialism for too long and the fact that left wing ideology has conquered the politics of the nation. I agree that 1000 a month in Porto would be hard to manage on.

​@@paulocorreia7942are you joking? Studying and learning in Portugal is the single most useless stuff you can do. Have a degree and a masters (education/translation) for nearly 20 years, still only on minimum wage (which is far from 1000€). Have friends in the same mess with biochemistry degrees and engineering degrees that have had to blatantly lie in their CV just to get a minimum wage job at Pingo Doce, cutting ham. Meanwhile, school dropouts from the 90s are driving Porsches. I am as Portuguese as they come and I hate it when tugas claim you can study your way up.

Basically, I agree with this idea. The PS and BE want more immigration and the fact that this will make people poor and miserable does not matter to them.

Good on you. More of us (Portuguese and foreigners that can vote here) need to step up and vote Chega.

Also the only party with a decent leader who seems to care about the country.

Thanks for commenting. I am always looking for social issues to highlight and I think this one is super important.

Yes, it is not a problem that is confined to Portugal. However, the levels of immigration and the damage it is doing is pretty high here. Of course, Portugal is lucky in a sense that it is not receiving much Muslim immigration compared to Germany, the UK or Holland.

I Yes rents are ridiculous and are a major factor in causing poverty - especially in urban areas. To be honest, I think these people deserve the chance to earn more for doing work like supermarket work. If there were fewer migrants, that would be possible.

I recommend the European Union establish and enforce tight immigration quotas.

Taxes are too high and immigration is a problem as well. Especially from ex colonies. Competing directly with low skilled Portuguese.

I don't know if you know about when Portugal adopted the Euro coin? In 24h alone, the prices doubled on everything. So, for example, a coffee which was 50$ (not dollars, escudos, but it's the closest I could find), you had it on December 31st 2001 at 50$, then the next morning you payed 0,50€. Every single business did it and the government did nothing. The conversion rate was 1€=200$. So a coffee would have had to change to 0,25€. It didn't. The scamming opportunity was too good. The inflation was double the price overnight on all goods. Of course, income didn't change. So there and then, Portugal lost 50% of its purchase power overnight, and in 2024 nobody has yet brought this up as a solid reason for poverty. 22 years and counting.

Since I am not Portuguese, many people think i am stupid to support Chega. They misunderstand the party and think it is anti-foreigner.

Yes his idea is really stupid. We need to stop them from coming and there are easy ways to do this.

Thanks for the support

The nationality process used to be easier when there were not so many applications. What you say about the Nepalese etc also applies to the number of nationality applications. The system is clogged up due to them in the main and yes you are correct, it is not going to end well.

Obrigado pelo apoio.

I am and Eu citizen (Ireland & Italy). I can vote in EU and local elections in Portugal. I cannot vote in national elections until I become a Portuguese citizen. I will vote Chega in every election I can vote in until the situation in the country changes and we have leaders that care about the European people (of course including Portuguese) and not focus all their attention on making sure lots if immigrants can enter freely into the EU.

Thank GOD another Patriot!! What we desperate need all over the W.!! Keep it strong!!

Thank you for the support. I agree that Portugal suffered greatly under the PS regime. They have basically transformed society by adding a million NEW migrants (legal and illegal). It's treason in my view

@@thecryptostrategist2433 I fully agree! For those of us who love this Country, it was/ is "Treason"!!!... Thanks for your Public Service!

Basically, the same situation as in China, the Philippines, or Thailand. Other countries have rules like this that make sense. Meanwhile, In Europe, we have lost our minds and will let anyone come in.

@@thecryptostrategist2433 you defined it well we lost out minds and let anyone enter without any crimminal records and so on, to get a work visa it's a lot of work to get all the documents and even with all the documents it can be refused, by Quota or whatever.

@@thecryptostrategist2433 keep in mind i am out of my country (Portugal) for at least 11 years and i do not see anything getting better if we think to come home, but it will get to a point where it's not home anymore. And the most of it's due to this woke ideas or socialists ideas that we need all this people

I also get the same sense, however I am not optimistic that the next election will bring a transformation. The cult of socialism runs deep here and there are people who are just incorrigibly left wing here.

@@thecryptostrategist2433 I know a lot of those around here too, with a sort of quasi-religious or even sports-club fervor for the left - particularly PCP and PS - even though PS is a huge party that ranges from left-leaning social democracy towards pure centrism. They gained influence in the post 25 d'Abril and they have remained relevant until very recently. PS continues to be a very large and powerful party but PCP (communists) has waned in these last years. In the south, particularly in the Alentejo region, many people that were alive at the time (1974) were seduced for the PCP because of what they called the "agrarian revolution" which took the land from the original owners (many descendant from nobles and knighthood titles) and supposedly gave them to the people. This ended up not working as intended (naturally) but the people who were once owned nothing and were little more than feudal workers had the prospect of finally having something to call their own. These people became staunch PCP supporters in that quasi-religious fashion I spoke above. They will NEVER vote anything else other than PCP. But these people are now over 70 years old, sometimes over 80 or more, and are "dying out". The new generations - generally speaking - don't adhere to communist ideals anymore (the left-wing youth generally vote BE, which is more progressive extreme-left and proponents of the "new-left" AKA wokeism). All this to say that this so called "socialism cult" has its days counted.

@@thecryptostrategist2433 I love that you called socialism a "cult", that's a really good way to describe it XD

@@KingSnakeRE4 communism is a cult, I think. Socialism not so much. Many countries with the highest standards of living have socialist regimes: Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, Luxembourg, etc.

This is a problem that has been created by the left - I fully agree.

Thing is even tho the government aint good and i actually agree portugal should try something on the right side, Chega is full of popular speeches and mostly hate viewpoints. I agree they are way less extremist than before covid but pointing out a problem with immigration or with people descendant from other countries that were born there so "they are portuguese" by law and by definition and the solution being "LETS GET RID OF THEM" isnt a real solution, thats literally just populist speeches just like the Nazi German party used in WW2. Im not calling them Nazis (even tho portuguese neo nazis identify with them politically) and obv they are not even close to them with "extremism" the kind of speech they use is still in the same category. They say what people want to hear but that doesnt mean they will actually do something and pointing out something is wrong without a feasible solution aint rly a problem solver.

Maybe more people will come to their senses.

I am a European. I worry about Europe of which Portugal is an important part. Immigration is something which all EU nations need to tackle together. I hope more Portuguese will wake up to how bad the situation had become. Maybe they need to take a trip to Alentejo and see whole towns full of Nepalese to realize.
