I don't know what to say other than chill out. You have completely hijacked the original thread with your ill-argued cliche talking points.

The original statement was "I'm appalled by the need for statistics showing how "useful" immigrants are." Mine response is that it's a necessary framework. I in no way gave any conclusions about what I believe is the result of thinking in that framework, but you seem to harbor some sort of prejudice that makes it so you've assumed what I think.

You seem upset. You argued that "it's a necessary framework" and I provided sourced arguments that even under a utilitarian framework immigrants are useful.

Yet you describe my arguments as "ill-argued cliche talking points" and go on to state that I "harbor some sort of prejudice"

Perhaps a little introspection is in order on your part.

Got it. You're a troll whose only response is "umadbro."

It's very obvious you're upset since you're resorting to name calling.

No trolling required to upset you. It seems just facts and reality will do it.
