The 14 Most Common Arguments against Immigration and Why They’re Wrong

https://www.cato.org/blog/14-most-common-arguments-against-immigration-why-theyre-wrong

 

1. “Immigrants will take American jobs, lower our wages, and especially hurt the poor.”

 

2. “Immigrants abuse the welfare state.”

Won't get into personal views or argue against other's views, but not all people who are pro limiting immigration or immigration reform, believe in all these 'reasons'. Just stating so not everyone gets labeled a monster or something. There are plenty on this site who are pro immigration reform, and yet are dealing with the immigration system for their fiance(e) or spouse. So you can be pro immigration in some respects but still believe it needs change. You can't just be far left on open borders or far right on shut down the borders; majority of people are somewhere in the middle when it comes to this topic believe it or not.

I see that you just want pump articles into this subforum and then leave after that talk we had. I just wanted to let you know that the same article link you posted refutes your claims and it cherry picks the data hard core.

One of our friendly mods will move this to the correct forum.

Ah yay, look, an inflammatory article and a thinly veiled attempt to rile us up!

OP isn't a current event (May 2018) and was posted with no apparent purpose other than to stir controversy for its own sake, so this thread is now locked.
