"Those resources don't come out of nowhere, so there is a need for immigration as well to get work done."

Efficiency gains in a process certainly create extra "resources" whatever they might be. But I do applaud you for not saying "we need immigration because we need ethnic food" like most people say nowadays.

Sure, and most of the world has much better lives already because of that then their parents.

This is excluding US which had a unique position after ww2 which has eroded to some extent but is still much better then the rest of the world..

I would guess that is dismissive on purpose, people saying that are avoiding a potentially sensitive topic which they do not care to engage in. (which I probably should as well, so yes, ethnic food is the reason)
