    Outside the more pragmatic and conceivable city-state, the very concept of nationality in the modern sense is pretty useless.

      It is useless for the worker, but it is very useful for the owner. The owner will use foreigners as scapegoats for the low salaries of the workers.

        OK, but if you bring in a ton of foreigners to do a certain job, the salaries are going to be lower.

        Not, that’s not the foreigners fault, but the state’s fault for letting those foreigners in, in the first place. Though I bet you have a strong opinion about mass-migration as well?
