Charlie Kirk on Immigration: Merit-Based System, Not Charity

Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk recently participated in a question-and-answer session where he outlined his perspective on immigration. He stated that he believes in a merit-based system, prioritizing those who can contribute to the country's economic competitiveness. "I don't believe immigration is a charity," Kirk said, emphasizing that immigrants should come to the country to work and contribute, not simply because they want to. He used Elon Musk as an example of the type of immigrant he would like to see more of. Kirk's comments reflect a common debate within conservative circles regarding immigration policy and the importance of economic contributions.
