Migration costs the West billions of dollars every year: Thanks to huge longitudinal studies conducted by the Danish government (2021), Amsterdam University (2023), and Migration Watch UK (2014), we now know the financial damage of importing and supporting non-Western migrants. The Danish government found that Third World migrants collectively make a net-negative lifetime financial contribution. All migrants who entered the Netherlands between 1995 and 2019 cost the country €400 billion, mainly due to "redistribution through the welfare state." Only Israel, India, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan provided an "unequivocal" net-positive contribution via labor migration, but the net benefit of one labor migrant is outweighed by the cost of one family migrant. Similarly, all migrants who entered the UK between 1995 and 2011 cost the country £148 billion, with migrants from outside the European Economic Area making a significant net-negative financial contribution.
