It is fucking relevent. Evidently the state set rules in place to permit immigration and the community set rules in place to pay for needy immigrants. So the state and the community judged the cost of supporting immigration provides a return beyond immediate cashflow considerations. So it then becomes completely relevent to evaluate the magnitude of the perceived benefit against the magnitude of negative cash flow, normalized by the population over which the benefit and the cost are spread.
Come now, Chuck. This is no place for reasonable pragmatism.
