Immigration is beneficial for wealthier citizens. Depending on the demographic they do depress wages because expectations are simply lower. They also compete especially with people in low-income brackets. A rising GDP from immigration is trivial, it does not mean that it is beneficial for everyone in society. On the contrary, I think some economic predictions just fall very short here and that they might be correct about their reservations because they can see that they need to compete with more people. If your local conditions are better than 95% of the globe, why would not promoting local condition be ever irrational?
