What if I told you most libertarians are ok with open borders *after* all welfare programs are ended?

See, this is one of the biggest problems libertarians have. They're not grounded in reality.

They refuse to admit those welfare programs are never ever going to end short of a complete collapse of the United States Government.

I fully-recognize that the programs themselves will never be dismantled, though they SHOULD be dismantled.

But it is not remotely unrealistic to think that we could make those programs unavailable to non-citizens.

So the next best thing is to make sure we have a tightly controlled and restricted border along with drastic and severe reductions in legal immigration.

No, the "next best thing" is simply to disqualify non-citizens from those programs.
