Again posted several times in this and other threads - if you remove restrictions on coming and going, people come and go. If you restrict coming, it also tends to restrict going, because people don't want to waste all they have invested in coming.

Easiest way to see this is to look at Germany's problem with Turkish guest workers.

If you'd noticed I clarified that a few posts back. Being ignorant is a fact and not an insult - it can be easily remedied. Being ignorant and refusing to admit it is what makes it silly.
