Oddbean new post about login | logout If you're unemployed it's hard to be legally in the UK as a non-citizen unless you qualify for some sort of refugee status (and thus aren't a migrant). Anyway, my point is equally valid regardless of the exact legal situation. It's completely insane to spend enormous sums of money on foreigners who are on average, less productive and more violent than the people already in your country.
are you clubbing high skilled immigrant with others and painting with broad brush saying that immigrants are less productive..
Productive foreigners don't get called "migrants" or "illegals"
How do you call productive foreigners?
Pete approved or Pete disapproved
LOL
I've been a productive foreigner most of my adult professional life and I've been a migrant every minute of it.
😂 Hardly anyone uses that term in that sense. Legal immigration with high standards is fine, at least for the country allowing immigrants in. Arguably it's a bad thing for the world as it tends to lead to brain drains, depriving poorer countries of their talented people. Obviously letting in millions of poor people with few skills, low intelligence, and violent cultures is a terrible idea.
