I think immigration should be treated the same as the free market for goods. If there is a market, a demand, and a willing supply then there should be little or nothing to stop the flow of labour. The EU for example in the 90s was worried about the entrance of Polish and Greek labour onto their market. The experiment turned out to be successful. Where, in the UK, there was much higher competition for plumbers, an example. Before, if you had a problem you would pay through the nose to get a plumber*. Now, the work is much more sanely priced. Now that the UK economy has tanked the same Polish migrants are heading home or to other areas of the EU. Obviously, some have decided to stay in the UK. But a lot have gone to Poland to start a business in their home country because now their is demand and money available. If the immigration rules were restrictive than most would be reluctant to leave because you're either in or out. Immigration should be a simple process; a bit of paperwork and a background check. Each state could make small additions like a health plan and unemployment insurance are bought by the worker or supplied by the company.
