The US impoverishes other countries and entices economic refugees to come to America where they are used as cheap labor. To make matters worse, highly educated immigrants are given special treatment, causing brain drain in the periphery. As a cherry on top, the US under-educates its population and keeps them monolingual so emigrating becomes much harder. And then of course they double tax people and make renouncing citizenship expensive, but I'm pretty sure you have to make over $103,900 for that to apply. If America's parasitic relationship to other countries was ended, not only would it face demographic collapse like all other developed market economies, but it would also become much less relevant in the realm of R&D.

I'm still for freedom of movement and immigration out of principle, but it should be paired with reparations to undo the unequal development of the world.
