Within the US legal labor market, there is very little discrimination on the basis of race, religion or national origin. What you're talking about is freedom to move at will from country to country and enter the free labor market of any country at will. I believe that restricting immigration, at least in the US, is intended to restrict "free riders," people who come here to mooch government benefits and take wealth, not people who come here to work and create wealth. We have a very high standard of living, but we can't take care of all the world's billions of impoverished, uneducated masses. Exclusion of the masses is ipso facto discrimination but we have no choice. I am very glad that people want to come here to work but I wish they would work harder in their own countries to make them better places. We've been educating the elites for decades, but then the elites don't want to go back and help their fellow countrymen, and that was always our plan, to help them to help others.
