It must be completely obvious to any rational, critically thinking individual that the immigration policies that have been put in place since World War II have had one object, and one object alone, and that is the destruction of the western world in general, and of the United States in particular.

Everything should be that simple to understand.

Post World War II immigration and migration policies have been 100% disastrous. There have been absolutely no benefits whatsoever.

Classical liberal economics says that humans are rational at times and the extent to which they are irrational, is either random noise or the subject of study for a different field. But classical liberal economics does not make any assumptions about the values people are trying to maximize. THOSE are very culturally dependent. Do you place your money in a retirement plan or use it to make suicide weapons to punish the descendants of those who mistreated your ancestors? Either course of action can be considered rational -- assuming different underlying values.

In our society being a pop singer has more prestige than being a nuclear physicist. In certain east Asian societies singer has the same prestige as circus clown. So whether you pursue physics or pop music is going to be culturally dependent -- assuming rationality.
