>>Ever since we have heard that immigrants are being imported for jobs You do realize that most of European migration is internal, right? Polish workers going to Germany, that kind of thing? It would be like complaining that American migration is crazy because of all the people moving from Kansas to take jobs in California. >> house prices increases due to supply and demand and crime rate is not equal among groups As compared to....? >>It is not like the US where you have a massive startup scene and get an Elon Musk from South Africa to create jobs and add meaningful value. I'm like, honestly not sure what to say to that. I could maybe start listing successful businesses started and/or ran by immigrants in the EU if that helps? Or is the fact that none of them are as famous as Elon Musk a dealbreaker? | ||

It isn't true that most migration is internal, actually. Across the whole EU in 2023 77% of new immigrants were non-EU [1], for instance. | ||
