    The initial premis of the argument that I replied to was questioning why people who were born in the U.S. are entitled to something that those who are not born in the U.S. are not.

    I’m all for net tax payers entering the U.S. through legal routes. Methods that protect the immigrant from exploitation from employers.

      Thanks for clarifying.

      Immigrating to the US legally in 2026 is a slow, restrictive, and broken process. Opening it up wouldn’t be the end of the world.

        I would love reform. Any changes that get smart productive people into the U.S. would only help us.

        At the same time dont you feel it harms foreign countries? We’re literally brain draining other countries keeping them in poverty or preventing them from developing.
