how can the left address the immigration/multiculturalism issue.
strange how marxism and libertarianism both share an open-borders policy and it's not hard to see how this limits both of their appeal.
how does the right address immigration? surely not border fences and catching illegals, those are joke solutions. I'm curious how far you've thought your troll out.
they let in as much immigration as capital needs but crack down hard on a few very visible immigrants to reassure people that they do actually want to 'conserve' their voters communities. Here in Australia they go all out on the boat people and put them in camps and whip up fear and resentment......all the while allowing ten times as many people into the country through legal channels each year.
so the right governing class wants more immigrants because Capital, the left governing class wants more because human rights/diversity/whatever: neither of them generally live in the areas that get put under pressure by mass immigration, and judging by the NF in France and the EDL/UKIP in Britain and so on, people are looking for a different way.

What is your opinion on the immigration policies of the most developed asian economies, which have effectively barred mass immigration?
