Oren Cass, in what might be the perfect six-word challenge for policy makers heading into 2021 writes "Worker Power, Loose Borders: Pick One." For all of us who have been frustrated for years by the media's insistence that immigration policy stands outside the law of supply and demand, it is more than a little cathartic to watch Cass take the expansionist utopians to the mat.
This school of thought fascinates me, in the same way an old-timey 'cabinet of curiosities' might capture the attention. 'And in this corner, the man who believes policymakers should strive to tighten labor markets, insists on the imperative of worker power, and also sees unconstrained immigration into the labor market's weakest segments as unconcerning if not downright desirable.' Is it impolite to stare?
