We could darn near be an open border country if there were NO government benefits to be had by those who are showing up.
So let me ask you this, are you suggesting that government benefits are still given to those who are citizens here or are you stating they shouldn't get it either?
Also, from a Biblical perspective, it addresses, somewhat, the idea of benefits when it speaks to gleaning and not harvesting every bit of your crop so that the poor and foreigner could survive. I know it's not a perfect correlation as you referred to government benefits and this is a command to an individual. I do think it works though because this came from the Torah and predates the time of kings in which God was the king so this was, essentially, a government command to give benefits to the poor and foreigner.

Why can't these people fix their own countries?
You know what our founders did? They didn't just leave America and try to go find a better life somewhere else.
They fought. Lots of them died face down in the mud, but they fought to improve where they were at rather than flee.

Non citizens should get nothing.
Citizens should get just enough to keep them from starving.
