Canada and some European countries have a merit based immigration, it seems to work better for them than the American system that they eschew.
Immigration should be based on supply and demand - this is an objective measure and not based on someone’s arbitrary definition of fairness and social equity (they are different for everyone).
- ggm 9y agoInterestingly, I am reminded from this of a labour union view that free movement of labour is actually more about cost of labour than the workers right to better pay. This leads to a view in statist left wing circles that its ok NOT to have free movement of labour, to defend the value of labour in high wage economies. I can't come at it myself, but it is almost 'two ends of the cicle meet' left-right agreement. You call it supply and demand, they call it exploitation of supply.
