So we don't fix the stupid economic system in place and throw immigrants at the problem, all the while making their origin countries even worse since it's now deprived of the ones bright enough to qualify for skilled labour... doesn't sound like the best of plans.
- ben_w 6y agoBright people have a whole world to move to, not just South Korea. For example, I went from the UK to Germany, and my sister-in-law went from the Philippines to the UK.
- jmnicolas 6y agoWhat about "not bright" people?
- ben_w 6y agoPersonally? I’m in favour of anyone being free to move anywhere anywhen. I don’t see opposite sides of international borders as being more substantially different than different regions within any single country, likewise corresponding movement of people.
- Allenaz 6y agoThat's my point, I too went from a 3rd-world country to a developed one, haven't seen many people doing the opposite.
- ben_w 6y agoI know at least five people who are either doing that now or have done that for a while in the past. Rich countries pay a lot, poor countries are growth opportunities — in both the personal and business senses of the phrase.
