>That's... not really relevant to the point being made. Of course it is. We don't owe them anything any more than they owe the victims of their ancestors' pillaging, which is nothing. >At the end of the day, I'm tired of trying to advocate for the idea that you should care about other people. Presumably you are discovering that people have their own problems to deal with, and don't always feel like being lectured about how they should put the problems of the rest of the world first. >Which, as it turns out, is actually the case for most kinds of immigration, despite what loads of unsupported FUD would like people to believe. It's actually not the case if you're a tax payer. More than 60% of households headed by an immigrant use some form of welfare. That's money those taxpayers could otherwise have used to pay for their own children, and maybe could've afforded to have more. It's also not the case if you're a low or medium skilled worker. It is the case if you're a wealthy business owner who benefits from cheap labor or a highly skilled worker in a field that's not greatly affected by an influx in labor.
