Peter Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 edit. I see no one wants to tackle the complex question of the legitimacy of the original foundation of Israel as it pertains to the immigration issue so I will delete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anthony Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 A 'free Society' (a big bunch of thinking, self-responsible individuals within certain geographical boundaries) is a benevolent, confident Society which has no fear of other individuals joining it, conversely, gladly invites them in. *Of course*, this presupposes it would be capitalist - *of course* it would be individual-rights-affirming: after all, those are the natural, logical consequences of freedom-seeking, rational people. Contrast with a climate of partial altruism-collectivism, of which the clear and inevitable consequence is that men will distrust, suspect, envy and despise their fellow men. What would immigrants seek in this society? Where there would be -no doubt at all- in an already free nation, new citizens continually arriving for the 'right' reasons... as things stand I'd have to be very wary of the motives of immigrants in the 'here and now'. (How collectivism arouses suspicion in me, too, and it's not an enjoyable sensation.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
