Of course, the real answer is that people who emigrate tend to be younger and more hard working/enterprising, irrelevant of educational level. |

Date: January 17th, 2018 3:01 PM Author: beta beady-eyed laser beams First, you're wrong when you say merit has always been irrelevant to US policy. But in any case, even if it were, what if the immigrant population started to skew dumber, poorer, more prone to criminality, less prone to assimilation.

We have done fine because and not in spite of it, because the desire to emigrate is in itself emblematic of merit -ie- being hardworking, ambitious, etc |

If you select migrants based on college education, you’ll still end up with mostly Indians, Mexicans, and Chinese. The largest proportion of college educated immigrants come from these countries |

The meritorious members of other countries should stay put, since they will probably end up being okay anyways. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3862848&forum_id=2#35177318) |
