Economist Bryan Caplan joins Peter Boghossian to discuss Caplan's latest book "Open Borders”. Bryan explains the significant economic benefits of immigration, particularly for low-skilled workers, using examples like a Haitian migrant's potential wage increase in the US. They delve into the complexities of immigration's impact on origin and destination countries, addressing environmental concerns, fiscal contributions, and the scalability of immigration policies. The discussion also touches on public perceptions, policy implications, and potential criticisms of Caplan's arguments.
