Most countries require immigrants to prove financial assets and ability to support themselves after the move. WE need to do the same. It only makes sense.
Most countries require an immigrant to have a certain level of education, as well as ability to speak the language of said country. This makes sense.
We can learn a lot from other countries, and should. We need to raise the bar, and raise it high.
That's the problem with illegal immigration. They come without sponsors to be held responsible for their costs while here. They end up being a financial burden to the taxpayer.
