Open borders

[EgoDeath]

So your point is what?

---

When did I claim other countries were running camps at their border? Huh?

And no. Illegal immigration amd mass immigration has NEGATIVE effects on economies. This is well documented. If your point is that legal, measured immigration has positive effects. Okay? Im not against legal immigration.

You claimed that other countries were being more prickish than the USA. The USA is running concentration camps. How are other western liberal democracies being worse? That was my question.

You are needlessly splitting hairs. Immigration (which ultimately includes refugees) is not only a good thing economically, it is a necessary thing.

No, YOU are needlessly splitting hairs. I'm the one sitting here saying I completely think we need reform on our immigration policies but you want to debate about one thing in my statement that you happen to disagree with. We're on the same side, I'm not going to bicker with you.

Plenty of countries have very harsh attitudes about Americans, or foreigners in general, coming to their country. Some even more so then here. They may not have the legal power to back up their sentiments, but plenty of other countries, via their countrymen and countrywomen, express great disdain for foreigners coming into their countries.

I, on the other hand, don't care. I'm not going to get into the weeds with you guys. The point is, I am totally fine with people from other countries coming here, so long as they do so legally. We can't just have people strolling in as they please with complete disregard of how our processes to take new people into the country work.

I think some exceptions can be made for people who are fleeing actively dangerous and potential fatal situations. But we cannot have people moving across borders with no restrictions or documentation.
