Positive aspects of immigration ☺️

It was already mentioned, that the ostensible opinions on immigration are not true. This is so, because immigrants:

• pay more taxes than locals
• are often well-educated in their countries of origin
• tend to be young and healthy (advantageous for countries suffering from demographic problems like an ageing population with a shrinking workforce that has to support a growing number of pensioners)
• bring needed professional skills

Immigration and migration in general:

• broaden our horizons
• enrich our culture
• create an atmosphere of tolerance
• new cultural specialties become part of a local identity of a city

The reasons for emigration are as diverse as the people who do emigrate ...

Here are some examples for economic migration:

• poverty
• desire for better economic opportunities and improved living conditions
