This only makes my point against the GP stronger. So half the population of Puerto Rico has already migrated to the mainland US, without anything terrible happening to the mainland US as a result.

The myths about the negative consequences of open border policy have no basis in reality.

You are aware that China is a lot bigger than Puerto Rico, right?

That is an entirely different point than the one you made in your previous response.

Indeed, but the two points complement each other.

Most people don’t migrate away from their home country/state. But even if they did, it would be of no negative consequence for the place they migrate to.
