George Borjas Notes An Immigration Irony
From: Professor
George Borjas:
Stuart Anderson, one of the
libertarians setting
policy at the INS, [VDARE.COM
NOTE: Anderson is “Executive Associate Commissioner,
Office of Policy and Planning”
see org chart in PDF.],
reviewed my book
Heaven's Door for Reason Magazine. The
review was
obviously quite negative. He makes a comment in that
review that may be quite relevant to his current
situation.
In particular, he dismissed my
argument that U.S. immigration policy would be better
served by moving to a
Canadian-style point system by noting the
bureaucratic problems that such a system would
introduce, and concluding "As if bureaucrats are well
suited to handle any labor market decisions."
I wonder how inept he feels today
about being a high-level apparatchik making precisely
those types of decisions!
