I agree, no harm to him for that, but yk, there’s also a lot valid places for economic migrants. In Lebanon, the government has stolen all the money from their citizens via the banks. There’s electricity there for a few hours a day, and sometimes they even have trouble with electricity in the hospitals. People are legit having to hold up banks to gain access to their money to pay for cancer treatments, and the job market is pretty bad. It’s been insanely hard for Lebanese people to get visas or apply for asylum in the States.

I know comparing doesn’t make these migrants need it any less, but it’s frustrating when a lot of people need economic asylum, & those that get the chance, seem ungrateful or just being over the top of the sake of it, because they have advocates.
