I guess this topic can be approached from many different angles. We can have utopian views of what an ideal system would look like. I do agree with you about the state. However, within the scope of the current system, it is becoming apparent that mass migration is being forced onto countries against the will of many people and even to their detriment, to the point where I see locals being put in second place. For example, kicking out vets from accommodation in favour of housing migrants. The state is indirectly abusing the people. I believe that migrants are being used as pawns in the states little games. The state has no interest in helping its own people, no way do I believe they are interested in helping anyone else but themselves.
I do agree that in certain circumstances providing people refuge is important though. But it should be a careful process that doesn't compromise the rights and safety of anyone who already resides there.
I feel that there is a lot of nuance to the subject. Ultimately it always comes down to the monetary system which facilitates this sort of stuff, in my opinion. But as far as immigrants following a process and competing with others in the job market, I have no issue with that.
