Aside from racism. I mean economically/socially, what issues does too much immigration cause?

    Aside from racism, it is usually the belief that the new immigrants will either be economic competition for those with jobs or a drain on welfare.

      That combined with a lack of available housing are the answers I see most often.

      in my country that’s exactly what is happening, they are taking the simpler jobs for much cheaper, and lot of our “native” people has/had jobs like this.

      ironically, this country is among the loudest in anti-immigration in the EU, all the while they are immigrating people from neighboring countries exactly for cheap labor.
