That is an utterly insane (and frightening) number to most normal people who just want to live in a peaceful and safe country of laws and order.

So to all of you who voted for Biden and the new woke democrats, who did not even hide their intention to open borders during the sham 2020 basement campaign, I ask how much is enough? Give me an upper limit to the number of illegal aliens the United States can absorb without a collapse of public services and social order? Do you think we've passed that upper limit given the existing illegal immigrant population + legal immigration rates?

And please no comparisons to the Ellis Island days. That was a controlled entry of people when the nation desperately needed labor and had a frontier to settle. I'm talking about uncontrolled open borders of the 21st century.

A controlled number of “legal” immigrants are hopefully a benefit or at least neutral to the economy and society.

If you are including illegal aliens, they do indeed destroy the economy and way of life in the countries they move to.

Too bad I'd prefer not to have children starving in the streets because their parents didn't know how to use birth control.

How many American children starved in the streets in any given year ???

Extremes just don't invoke that emotion anymore ... especially in a nation that is vying for #1 spot in obese countries.

These are just little taglines your ilk has made up to make yourselves feel better.

There are no "open borders" proponents? Just a tagline?



Free Migration Project


Why Open Borders?


There is a wide and diverse support base for open borders that includes arguments from actors working from varied ideological backgrounds.

An comprehensive outline of the arguments for open borders has been constructed into a blog, designed and maintained by a collaborative group of experts within the field at openborders.info.

Moral Argument

The arguments for the moral case for open borders can be designated into three ideological categories, arguments from the libertarian perspective, arguments from the left and faith based arguments.

They won’t be satisfied until 95% of this country is destitute and looks like Guatemala

I think the correct number of illegal aliens is 0

It depends on where you put them.
Apparently not in elite democratic area like Martha Vineyard or in kamala Harris front yard. Nor in democratic cities like Chicago or New York. Liberal want illegal alien to stay in El Paco and other border cities where they are out of sight to their liberal eyes.
