The argument is regarding asylum seekers, so the motive is to give them safety rather than expecting productive immigrants unless of course, you are against the whole refugee intake altogether. Secondly, I'd personally want people who have originally been highly productive in their homeland, are like me in terms of culture and appearance foremost in terms of preference.

For the most part I am. I understand your argument of "if we're going to do this, these people are the most likely to be compatible" but I don't really agree with this idea that other countries should be dumping grounds for countries in turmoil.

I disagree with this notion that if you have it bad enough in your country you should just be given a golden ticket into another. This is a big problem with immigration from latin america. Any women can approach the border and claim her husband smacks her around and apply for asylum.
