This category is intended for sites which deal with societal issues and controversies regarding immigration.Immigration-related controversies include the scope of and restrictions on immigration, immigration law reform, the status of asylum-seekers, the means to control or discourage illegal immigration, the rights and privileges of aliens contrasted with those of citizens, and questions of culture, assimilation, and language.
The term "brain drain" refers to the depletion or loss of professional, entrepreneurial, intellectual or technical personnel by one country or region of the world to the benefit of another (it can also occur within a country from rural to urban areas, from poorer areas to richer areas etc). This phenomenon has been said to be most acute in the flow of talent from developing and underdeveloped nations to the first world but it's also been used, more controversially, to allege that there is a flow of talent (managerial and entrepreneurial as well as intellectual and technical) within the first world from Canada and western Europe to the United States where pay is higher and taxes are lower.
"Reconquista" refers to the idea that some or all of California, New Mexico and other parts of the southwestern United States might be given to Mexico, and the concern by some Americans that Mexican illegal aliens entering the US are an army of invaders to achieve that takeover.
