Possibly true. However, given a surplus of people wishing to immigrate to the US, we should selfishly take all the immediate operating-profit applicants first before admitting any that require us to borrow money (feel-good or whole-world-utilitarian exceptions like asylum aside; credit them whatever value you think they're worth).
- JoeAltmaier 15y agoKids don't 'wish' to immigrate - they get dragged along. Furthermore, its not clear we in America are so poor we must operate on an immediate-profit bases, especially when considering human capital. You for instance. Should we eject you, probably a student by the sound of it, because you are not currently profitable? Now you argue that you're already an American, which is true but firmly on the "I've got mine" side of politics and not pretty.

- JoeAltmaier 15y agoSo, you advise looking ahead to the next quarter only, while torpedoing the chances of the next generation? What is it all for then?
