"While it's true that demand for goods and services increases GDP, it's not good for any person. "
Nonsense.
If I, as a red blooded "non immigrant" (what the fuck does immigrant really mean? who cares where I was born?) sell widgets, and "immigrants" love to buy lots of widgets, it is trivial to see how this is good for me.
The only exception is where the number of immigrants present creates beneficial economies of scale. For example, without the many Indian immigrants in Jersey City, Sri Ganesh's Dosa House probably would not have sufficient business to continue operating.
