Wrong. The article clearly states
"Immigrants account for 13% of the American population but 27.5% of those who start a new business. By their nature, migrants have more get-up-and-go than the average person—otherwise they wouldn’t move."
If not that is an argument for more immigration I don't know what is.
- vharuck 7y agoThe problem is saying the entire point of the article is to encourage pro-migration sentiment. It's an incorrect generalization. It'd be like saying the entire reason you started a HN account was to point out articles you believe are pro-migration propaganda, and ignoring all the comments you've made about other topics.
- fetbaffe 7y agoArticle begins with stating it is bad to have white christian males in a group and the article concludes in the end it is better to have immigrants. Of course it is a praise to migration. Don't be naive. And your comparison doesn't even make sense, I'm not commenting on every article at the Economist, just this one.
