\> Unfortunately, we have systemic structural problems that make a libertarian framework impossible here without total destruction: (1) The welfare (and as proven, the USAID graft) system is too great of a perverse incentive\
\
1. Both Biden and Obama administrations deported more people than did Trump during his first term.\
\
2. Socialist Bernie Sanders long opposed lifting immigration suppressions.\
\
3. Progressive Paul Krugman opposes lifting immigration suppression laws because he thinks doing so would reduce support for the welfare state.\
\
4. Socialist states both historically and in the present ( North Korea, Cuba, and Venezuela) enforce strict immigration suppression laws.\
\
5. Most of the immigration suppression laws on the books were pushed by labor unions, beginning with the first national immigration suppression law, the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.\
\
If international freedom of movement benefits the welfare statists so much, why have socialists and welfare statists generally opposed lifting immigration suppression laws?
