There is plenty of evidence that wealthy people are better citizens. They commit less crime, are more economically productive, and consume more goods and services from other people, thereby boosting the economy. A nation that only accepts wealthy immigrants would be a nation with less of the problems associated with poverty.
The questions are more like: 1. is this fair? and 2. would the reduction in number of immigrants be harmful to economic growth?

- ggggtez 7y agoYou aren't really engaging with the point I'm making. You are thinking in this close minded "What are the Q3 earnings"-sort of way. What if there is something deep down, something idealistic like "Equality" and "Freedom" that should actually be a right for every person on earth? That you shouldn't have to have a Harvard education to claim? Isn't the USA the place that promises that opportunity? That you can strive and work hard, and make a better life for yourself and your family? I'm not saying kick out the doctors and ceos, but being a doctor or ceo should not be the bar for entering the US.
