Round 1
thathsi2025AGAINST
Immigration is not a static tap to turn off when convenient; it is a vital economic lever linked to workforce demographics, tax revenues, and critical skill shortages. Arbitrary fixed caps substitute economic planning with short-sighted political gestures.
If someone limits immigration then cases like people who are suffering within their own country and aren't satisfied with their government risk being overlooked
Round 2
thathsi2025AGAINST
Globally, the UN has cited asylum seekers account for 10-16% of global migration. That leaves 84-90% of migrants or the majority, I don't think we need a professor to prove that, but whilst asylum seekers exist they do not account for the majority of migration. Additionally, a study by MIT found that immigrant born people are 80% more likely to become entrepreneurs and HIRE people as a result contributing to a net POSITIVE for the nation. Also, the influx of immigration aids in FILLING IN SECTORS in which we previously had no people to fill roles e.g. doctors, engineers, etc...
Also many countries have more push factors than pull factors if the resident of that country feels disappointed they should have the full right to emigrate to any other country of their choice
Round 3
thathsi2025AGAINST
Therefore, national governments should not implement a fixed cap due to the dynamic nature of immigration and how many immigrants we require. I rest my case.
