There&#x27;s probably a legitimate point to be made that countries typically spend a large amount of money during an individual&#x27;s formative years that they don&#x27;t pay back until they&#x27;ve spent a significant length of time working, so they have in essence pre-used a lot of those services.<p>I wouldn&#x27;t personally advocate that stance - I think it&#x27;s problematic with respect to consent - but I can see that in the case of extremely high emigration rate the viewpoint might be very tempting.
