Why do people immigrate to capitalist countries?

Wouldn't they do better going to a socialist country? or someplace like Canada?

Many people in America, say it's the worst, and should be burned to the ground
and start over. But people still swarm from around the world to get here.
Socialism is so fantastic.
Tomorrow, what’s left of my family and my neighbour are boarding a makeshift raft of debris and floating to America….

For the same reason, when asked by a reporter why he robs banks, William Francis Sutton said "Because that's where the money is."

So they can get a job and work for a better future for their children without being repressed.

I was born in a socialist country and lived there for a while. But then I lived in a capitalist country for more than 20 years.
I can tell you all the why-s.

@justanotherone So tell us why.

There are lots of free stuff in America.
@sree251 That’s very true. But it is not related to capitalism per se. It is political pandering. I cite NYC and the free stuff they’ve doled out for migrants.
You think no one's trying to swam Canada?

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP Yes, a few.
last year alone, more than 39,000 asylum seekers entered Canada via unofficial crossings - mostly into Quebec via a dirt path off Roxham Road in New York, prompting the province to complain it could not handle the arrivals. Asylum seekers are drawn by Canada's reputation for swifter processing and greater acceptance of asylum applications compared to the U.S.

Canada isnt a socialist country nitwit. It's a capitalist country as well.

@NativePortlander1970 if you sit a table with ten people and one is a Nazi but the other 9 don't object. You're sitting at a table of Nazis. If you don't object? You're also one of the Nazis
@MethDozer Keep smoking your meth, tweaker 🙄

@NativePortlander1970 You can just say " damn you're right, I can't argue with anything you just said."
Because Canada wants people who will actually work and contribute to society

@jshm2 But the fact is, they never end up leaving. Who wants a 30% increase in taxes
to go to the frozen tundra of Canada?
