I am opposed to legal immigration of skilled workers. My reason is because it causes what Peter Turchin called elite overproduction. We have too many highly credentialed people who fight over who gets entrance to our top schools and who monopolize the highest ranked high schools. Immigrants have more social and income mobility than natives. I would argue that the professional class has become increasingly isolated and contemptuous of non-elite citizens as they continue to grow in size and monopolize elite positions. For example, our top schools seem to mostly be the children of immigrants or immigrants themselves. Those schools feed into the most elite business and government positions giving those people disproportionate power. The reasons for inviting them I think are a combination of disingenuous or outdated. The arguments about economic survival or humanitarian reasons just don't seem true to me anymore but that's a separate point.
