    Requiring proficiency in the language is reasonable, but requiring everyone to be richer than the average member of the population and have enough money banked to live off of for 30 years seems insane. That goes well beyond simply making sure that people are able to care for themselves.

      It's their country, can't they do what they want?

      The basic premise is absurd on its face that a country should ever be expected to even allow immigration especially if it does not want it.
