Immigration and Democracy

Most immigrants do it for financial reasons, not democracy and freedom. Give them enough money in their autocratic countries, and they won't move one step out. It is a rare immigrant that does it to flee dictatorship. When they come to the new democratic destination, they just strive for money and prosperity, they don't take part in the political process. That is sad but true. The risk the target country takes is that if it accepts too many of these immigrants, it might get flooded with people who don't care who rules them and what system is in power, as long as they can make a living. This will put democracy at risk.
