This article seems to deal with the worries that allowing more foreigners access to immigration systems might mean more immigration to "wealthy" countries where those people can take advantage of welfare systems. That, to me, seems like an entirely justifiable reason to worry about these people.
Could you specify why you feel that immigrants taking advantage of a welfare system is a justifiable reason to worry about these people?
