Open borders advocate interviewed on RT's 'Boom Bust'
At the start of RT's Boom Bust, at 17:30 +10 on 3 Oct 2015, Ameera David interviewed Bryan Caplan, an advocate of open borders from the United States. He was fully in favour allowing all refugees and immigrants to settle in Europe. He claimed that the current inhabitants of the countries to which the immigrants/refugees would gain from having large numbers of additional people in their country.
He was quick to concede that this would not seem to be the case in the short term, but claimed that the inhabitants would gain in the longer term. One citation to back up his claim was the notorious Julian Simon (1932-1998), notorious for his debates with Paul Ehrlich.
