During his first address to the US Congress, President Donald Trump apparently took a constructive stand on immigration by proposing to adopt a merit-based immigration system for a reform in the economy of America.<\/strong> He emphasized that a merit-based system for immigration in USA would ensure economic welfare of many struggling families by saving millions of dollars and raising native workers\u2019 wages.<\/p>\n
In support of his statement and proposal, Donald Trump referred to the immigration policy of nations like Canada and Australia where immigrants are welcome based on their merits and skills. He added that the basic principle of these countries\u2019 merit-based immigration system is that immigrants should support themselves financially instead of depending on the national welfare programs.<\/strong> The US\u2019 federal resources will be drained unless such a fair system is enforced.<\/p>\n
