Immigrants 'damaging our society' is just one situation I can imagine where immigration would no longer be a force for good. Hey, maybe what I'm describing is ridiculous, but I don't really think so.
but you are a scientist no? would you not need to perform a randomised control test/trial to determine whether or not immigration can be acsribed to the damage to society. therefore you'll need baseline data on what our society (immigrant free) is and what condition it is in a point x in time. allow for a period of immigration within a section of our society. retest that section of society at point xx in time whilst using the the immigrant free control group as a comparative base on which to determine positive and negative additionality, displacement, deadweight and spillover effects...
