    "Trade" also means "profession".

    Hint: the oldest trade is not plumber or dentist.

    Source?

    The only article I have seen is that the average IQ has dropped by two points in the U.S. and points the blame at low-skill immigrants who are not citizens. This information is taken from K-12 testing. Note the associated average end-of-grade test scores have also dropped.

    Somehow I think all of this information is biased including claims that the average IQ in India is only in the 80s.

    If you look at any major civilization in history, those that allowed for immigration did better than those that didn't.

    While a lot of immigrants don't add any value to the United States, there are many that do. I don't think it's a coinicidence that the United States in less than 200 years went from nothing to the most powerful country in the world. This was done because the US was generally open to outside citizens, many of whom were ambitious, clever, hard working and entreprenurial. America's gain was everyone else's loss.

    40 years ago, the smartest indians all came to the US. Now many are staying back to build their fortunes and it's to our detriment.

    I am surprized that a forum with such libertarian leanings is anti-immigration.
