    Koch-Backed CATO Institute: ‘Time for the U.S. to Have Open Borders’

    32





    Sandy Huffaker/Getty Images31 Jul 201868The Cato Institute, a think tank partially founded by the billionaire, pro-mass immigration Koch brothers, is advocating for full open borders to the United States.

    In an op-ed for USA Today, the Cato Institute’s Director of Economic Studies, Jeffrey Miron, says the U.S. “has nothing to fear, and much to gain, from open borders,” saying that Americans should “forget” about putting a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border to stop illegal immigration.
    Miron downplayed the negative impact open borders would have on American citizens, writing:
    Immigrants will not flood into America, although the rate of immigration might increase. Instead, much of the immigration will be temporary. Return migration happens because most people want to be near their families, surrounded by their own language, culture or religion. [Emphasis added]


    Crime will not skyrocket. Available evidenceshows that immigrants are no more crime-prone than natives. And the additional immigrants likely to enter under open borders would plausibly be even less so, because they have shown respect for the law by not immigrating illegally. [Emphasis added]

    What a load of bull manure. If our borders were open folks would flood in from all over. We're talking about whole families and generations of family. Heck, they'll all be here, which means there would be no reason for them to go back to their native lands! Well, not until they destroy our country anyway.

    You just cannot trust Libertarians. Sorry if you ever thought you could. Most of their ideas are plain crazy. Here they sabotaged a viable GOP candidate by draining off votes in the governors race.
