Most of the greatest inventions come from immigrants. I think the structure of the H1B program and its easy manipulation is bad for the middle class but everyone in the United States is or came from immigrants.
- anamax 5y ago> Most of the greatest inventions come from immigrants. Whether or not that's true, it doesn't answer "Are immigrants interchangable?" That leads to "Does it matter which immigrants?" I ask because Pareto's law applies, which gets us to "Can we get all/most of the benefits with few of the costs by picking immigrants?" (The costs are an increasing function of the total number. Do the benefits depend on which immigrants?)
