Immigration and the Welfare state

At Econlog, Brian Caplan makes an interesting argument about immigration and the abolition of the welfare state.


The welfare state doesn't make open borders impossible. It's open borders that makes the eventual abolition of the welfare state imaginable.

I suppose this is only works if you think the welfare state is a bad thing.
