maybe they ll be too bloody even to be mass deportations dead bodies can t emigrate in the bible king herod ordered all the young babies killed so that the prophesied king would not live to supplant him pharaoh killed the babes of the hebrews so that they wouldn t become too numerous it s possible we haven t fallen quite that far morally yet but we ve fallen very far very fast that s why no other politician in america has been quite wicked enough to convince voters he s ready to perpetrate that when a great democracy lets its whole public discourse be permeated by a lie the biggest liar wins mainstream politicians collaborated in the lie that illegal immigration could be stopped now we re reaping the terrible harvest of that lie and american democracy may already be past the point of no return and so while i m still much concerned with the plight of the world s poor and i m very eager to welcome as many of them as possible into the united states and other rich countries because that s by far the most effective way to alleviate world poverty i now have another objective which is as important to me and somewhat more acute namely to save american democracy american democracy is critically ill right now and i think its best hope of a cure is a nice medical injection of open borders thought what do i mean by open borders there was a time a few years back when in a certain very niche community it could begin to be expected that people s understanding of the term open borders would not be nearly the random outcome of an encounter between a thinking mind and a natural language phrase but would be informed by a body of thought developed in a variety of places but especially on this blog activity has slackened since although bryan caplan still bravely carries the torch as an influential public intellectual thoroughly schooled in the way of thinking his book open borders which for better or worse is in the format of a graphic novel is probably the best introduction to it for the general reader but let me summarize it here in my own way people have a right to go where they need to go and live where they need to live in order to live according to the dictates of their conscience and to support themselves and their families also people have a right to be with relatives and friends and others that they love and to stay in the midst of communities where they are deeply rooted and have a strong network of social ties governments do wrong to interfere with the rights in 1 and 2 except in exigent circumstances for narrow compelling motives principally the prevention of terrorism and contagious disease when governments violate the rights in 1 and 2 except in narrow circumstances as described in 3 they act unjustly immigration policies that respect the rights described in 1 and 2 and that accept the constraints described in 3 and 4 comprise open borders open borders do not imply that the crossing of borders should be free of any checkpoints or constraints rather any such checkpoints and constraints should be administered with due regard to the right to migrate open borders in no way imply that foreign born persons residing in a democracy should enjoy the right to vote at any stage of their residency open borders do not in general imply equal treatment under the law for native born persons or citizens and for foreigners however insofar as administrative law reflects understandings of basic justice and natural rights a community may be required to provide similar justice services to the foreign born on pain of violating their rights open borders are compatible with migration taxes open borders are compatible with allowing or incentivizing labor market discrimination in favor of the native born or citizens the above list answers many questions and raises more to the long running problem of illegal immigration the answer is simply stop stop fighting it stop worrying about it stop the deportations we don t necessarily have to grant all illegal immigrants citizenship but let them live without fear and work and trade on a normal basis more or less but it s a radical policy like abolishing slavery or communism or polygamy abolishing migration restrictions points to dramatic changes which can t be thoroughly foreseen there s good reason to think the changes will be mostly good for example it will raise world gdp dramatically increase the manpower of liberal democracies relative to aggressive autocracies and probably accelerate innovation i believe although it s controversial that many low skill native born americans will see wages fall due to immigrant competition but migration taxes can compensate them so that the large efficiency gains from open borders can benefit those on whom the first order impacts are negative but to hash out all those debates is not my purpose here rather i want to remind people that there s an alternative to the self destructive pursuit of total immigration sovereignty i want people of good will to stop giving hostages to maga and other fascist adjacent political cults by conceding that we need to enforce the law control the borders or whatever we actually don t total immigration sovereignty is not an indispensable condition of national survival we don t have to sacrifice every principle on the altar of an unattainable total control of who is present on the national territory some people are here without permission that s okay we should be relaxed about that we don t have to keep pretending that it s some kind of crisis and if we re really smart we will institutionalize the truth that it s okay we ll rethink the insistent prerogative of democratic control of immigration we ll learn to start our arguments about the subject from what is a nice fair decent way to treat people who want or need to be in this country for one reason or another we ll accept that whether to come here or not should mostly be up to them not us we ll evolve towards open borders we ll get stronger create a huge amount of opportunity for people from all over the world and increase the wealth and freedom of the human race and then we can elect nice honest democratic politicians again finally let me end by responding to a question from a friend about what democrats should do now i m not a political consultant and i m not a dyed in the wool democrat but if my advice to relax about illegal immigration is to impact policy someone will need to run on it and win that someone would presumably for now be the democrats so it s a fair question it s tricky to answer because the democrats pay a heavy political price for advocating a large policy and social agenda growing out of the sexual revolution to which i m totally unsympathetic it would be easy for me to say to jettison all that but not quite fair advice since their priorities are different from mine it would also stray too far from the current topic democrats could also try more of the same and hope to win when trump s plans fail or fall short or a better candidate comes along but that feels like unsatisfying advice so i ll offer a substantive concession build the wall that s the compromise i d suggest for the sake of political expediency on the path to the larger goal it might seem like a fatal concession to make even as a tactical compromise what could be more antithetical to open borders than a giant chain of concrete and wires marring the like southern border but the moral significance of a physical barrier is slight and it would be a small price to pay for many other things such as a path to citizenship for current illegal immigrants or more visas the main goal isn t a physically open border but an own society that respects immigrants rights recognizes a right to migrate and abjures the conceit that it can and should completely control entry and insist on total immigration sovereignty and anyway there are other ways to get here boats small planes tunnels shipping containers so physical prevention of all illegal immigration isn t realistic what we need to do instead is overhaul public opinion and the social contract so that we can live and thrive with it migrating from the womb and across borders to security and personal agency may 29 2022 joel newman 22 comments note the views expressed in this piece may not reflect the views of the managers of this site or of the other writers who contribute to this site supporters of open borders hold a diversity of views on topics that intersect with open borders advocacy the long conflict over whether abortion should be legal in the u s will climax in the next few weeks when the supreme court issues a ruling on a case from mississippi one that is likely to overturn the roe v wade decision from 1973 which granted abortion rights if the ruling leads to prohibitions on abortion in many states it would increase the salience of the ability of women seeking abortions to cross both state and international borders the open borders cause has more in common with opposition to the right to abortion however both pro life and open borders advocates seek the survival of and personal agency for the helpless and vulnerable by respectively allowing nearly all fetuses to exit their mother s body and allowing nearly all would be immigrants to exit one society and join another both fetuses and many would be immigrants are in undeservedly helpless and vulnerable situations the fetus did not choose to exist inside the body of the mother and has no control over their fate which may be their termination either intentionally or naturally many would be immigrants are likewise undeservedly endangered impoverished and or persecuted by the political social environmental and economic conditions into which they happen to be born and grow up and aside from emigrating they have few if any opportunities to improve their extremely constrained and imperiled situations the conditions are characterized by violent conflict widespread corruption and crime government dysfunction illiberal governance discrimination natural disasters and or unsafe climates for example a combination of drought conflict and economic collapse has resulted in most afghans not having enough food to eat and the lives of afghan women are constrained by the taliban who rule the country the situations in yemen south sudan syria haiti central america and venezuela are similarly perilous and difficult there are numerous other countries whose residents lives are circumscribed and threatened to various degrees by adverse conditions in those countries open borders and anti abortion policies would end the dependence of fetuses and would be immigrants on the decisions of others as to whether they will escape their helplessness and vulnerability and gain security and personal agency in the case of the fetus personal agency is realized if they are allowed to be born and to develop into an adult with abortion currently available as a legal option healthcare workers based on the wishes of their patients may deliver babies safely and nurse premature infants back to health or they may use their skills to conduct abortions in the case of would be immigrants ilya somin the author of free to move notes that the opportunity to cross international borders can constitute a life transforming event often also a life saving one however currently the opportunity for haitian afghan syrian venezuelan and other would be immigrants to gain control over their future and often to survive is limited by restrictive immigration policies formulated by the countries to which they desire to migrate it is acknowledged that illegal migration is an option for would be immigrants that does not exist for fetuses however this option is unrealistic for those without the resources to finance often expensive attempts to cross a border illegally even those who attempt to cross a border without permission face terrible often deadly consequences it also is recognized that the agency of women with unwanted pregnancies must be considered these women deserve sympathy especially when contraception has been used but failed to prevent pregnancy poor single women with unwanted pregnancies are in especially challenging circumstances yet even in these situations the woman s life is rarely threatened by the pregnancy and she still retains some agency albeit limited by a pregnancy in addition to attempting to provide protection and agency to the helpless and vulnerable there are other similarities between the open borders and anti abortion causes first the groups that are championed by open borders and anti abortion advocates are both viewed as threats by some nativists sometimes describe immigrants as invaders similarly some supporters of the right to abortion characterize fetuses as intruders while the pro choice movement does not appear to promote an association between access to legal abortion and reductions in crime some academics have provided evidence of a connection meanwhile nativists have long associated immigrants with crime second there is overlap in the available arguments for pro life and open borders proponents with respect to the impacts on society if their desired policies are realized both open borders and pro life advocates can emphasize the concrete macroeconomic benefits of their policy positions in addition to moral arguments both fewer abortions and more immigration by increasing the population of younger people would mitigate the impact of low fertility rates in the united stated and other wealthy industrialized countries as well as some less wealthy ones while some have discounted the negative impacts of low fertility rates others predict that t he strain of longer lives and low fertility leading to fewer workers and more retirees threatens to upend how societies are organized around the notion that a surplus of young people will drive economies and help pay for the old there is little sign of wage growth in shrinking countries and there is no guarantee that a smaller population means less stress on the environment the material benefits of open borders in particular could be dramatic as reflected in the academic literature that suggests massive increases in world gdp from free migration as well as providing economic benefits at the national and local levels third there are keyhole solutions available to help address challenges associated with both prohibitions on abortions and open borders policies in the case of abortion christine emba of the washington post notes that e xpanding access to contraception is an easy compromise that could lessen the need for abortion free h...
