I was in fact replying to the implication that 1st word countries actively seek out skilled people from over countries so they can benefit their own. If skilled workers want to come and contribute then good luck to them and they will be welcomed. Not those out for a free ride off the back of working people in that country who've contributed into the system that pays for it. A few years ago I fell out of work due to redundancy and every benefit I received as a result of that was justified because I'd payed into the system for 20 years+. Why should I be content with unemployed migrants from wherever,whose sole purpose is to come to my country and enjoy the benefits its system offers without at least knowing the basics of the language and willingness to integrate with the local community? Are we all just supposed to say,"Well ya know, life was probably tough and they only want a better life." Bullshit I'm afraid. You don't get nothing for nothing. And that is the harsh reality of life. And your a deluded fool if you think otherwise. Just my opinion.
