Ok

The latter option implies the immigrant will be more likely to integrate than the former?

it's hard to give an accurate answer because we don't know how different the highly skilled and educated immigrant is from you and your country's culture and traditions, and we don't know how low skilled the immigrant that is like like minded and similar to you is

Yes, let's phrase it this way:

Would you rather have an Anglo immigrate to America or a well educated German move there?

a skilled immigrant obviously

I'd stick to the German

long term he will be more useful

if he's willing to help the nation that is

I'd rather have the Anglo

Bcause he is more like me

America is no longer anglo

If the guy's educated enough sooner or later he'll understand it'd an easier if he adapts than if he tries to adapt society

No, but it is an English speaking nation with a legal system that borrows from that of the British.

I don't care as as long as they're European stock

if there illegal they shouldnt even be here so

if the choice is between an anglo and a german you might as well pick the highly skilled one since it's not _that_ big of a difference in terms or culture and so on

also there are more americans of german decent than anglo decent iirc so the german would fit better in that an anglo anyway

I mean, the problem with current immigration is the new immigrants are mostly uneducated and therefore more reluctant to adapt to a more civilized country

@Harald Not really because it's still mostly Anglo culture, philosophy and language

All the Jerries assimilated

I think it would be better to make it a choice between an low skilled Anglo immigrant and a high skilled Mexican immigrant

make it a bigger cultural contrast

ANGLO

@V-NAF_Aardist I lived in Vermont up until the age of 13

After that I moved to Maine

I lived in Maine till I was 22

Been in Colorado ever since

Hard to find jobs in Vermont

Beautiful state

But very high taxes, low growth and no jobs

Also you just got terrible gun laws

Slapped on you

You have a socialist senator and one that’s half alive

Maine is more homogeneous than Vermont

Slightly

Maine and NH have some growth

Damn, gun laws were the thing that set Vermont apart from the rest of the blue states

That and being basically an ethnostate

Maybe to make it more interesting, have the choice between a high skilled Russian and an anglo, because most here would choose the white immigrant over a high skilled non white, but I guess it works that way, too

As long as they're not a filthy Communist I don't mind Eastern Euros either

Shut up
