Oh OK. That's a pretty bold statement to make about family immigrants being on welfare eventually. You do know that also, welfare is for helping people when they need it, right? It's why people like me, pay taxes. A merit system also negates anybody who could potentially become someone better by immigrating to the US. It's ridiculous and egregious to say that only highly educated, fluent English speaking, etc... Should be allowed to immigrate.
Wow you must not know much about immigration if you think they will be on welfare system. Family based visas have a huge support system and have to prove that will not be on welfare to get admitted.
