But almost all discussion of immigration currently happens within the inadequate framework of what business and economists think about economic growth. Some business leaders want a right to bring in an immigrant if they have a job to offer the immigrant (there is risk some will pay for a job to come here). But beyond the infrastructure costs, how much immigration is good? The previous gungho of over 100,000 a year immigrants is not desirable and we know it created infrastructure and cultural stress. Obvioulsy this figure is within the 56,00 immigrant level.
