&gt; Sorry Wall Street Journal, but please get your facts straight before writing rubbish.<p>The WSJ is a great publication and worth reading.<p>But you have to understand whose interests the WSJ represents: the global business elite. The global business elite loves immigration because, to them, it represents an inflow of cheaper workers who know and&#x2F;or care less about their rights. (Even if you don&#x27;t hire immigrants directly, increasing the labor supply helps slow wage growth.) There are probably also some other factors, like status signaling. They aren&#x27;t worried about getting cultural details right, because they don&#x27;t care about culture or civic engagement or anything like that. They care about cheap labor.<p>You can therefore expect the majority of WSJ articles about immigration to say whatever they think cheerleads immigration most, no matter how nonsensical it is (but since the WSJ is a &quot;serious&quot; publication, you&#x27;d think nonsense would be kept to a minimum.)<p>(There are, of course, many supporters of immigration who have nothing to do with the global business elite, many other arguments than can be made, for and against, but that&#x27;s the WSJ demographic.)
