Timothy Graf's experiences moving from America to England sparked some fresh ideas about immigration. Our exacting border policies often ignore the significant benefits delivered by the new perspectives of immigrants, fresh ideas that are vital for future success. He argues that smart countries should be lowering roadblocks and setting both caps and minimums when it comes to immigration.
