We uphold this conviction: Open borders for honest immigrants is an application of the principle of individual rights to those foreign born.

Consequently, we support open borders for all honest men and women. We maintain that honest individuals have the moral right to choose their country of residence, that the government of a free society must uphold and protect that right, and that, in practical terms, the United States throughout its history has greatly benefited from immigration. Andrew Carnegie, Ayn Rand, Albert Einstein, Jerry Yang (co-founder of Yahoo), Sergey Brin (co-founder of Google), Elon Musk (Founder of SpaceX and co-founder of Tesla Motors),

Peter Thiel (co-founder of PayPal), and numerous other geniuses and/or productive giants were and are immigrants to America; Silicon Valley, for example, is heavily populated with expert, foreign-born engineers. Related, labor force participation rates show that low-skilled immigrant laborers are and have long been among American society’s hardest workers, critical during crop harvests specifically.

To those who argue that immigrants freeload off of the welfare system, our response is dual: Factually, the welfare state is, overwhelmingly, a problem of native-born Americans, not of immigrants, who generally manifest a superlative work ethic; second, the welfare state must be utterly abolished on purely moral and humanitarian grounds, for the preservation of individual right, regardless of America’s immigration policy.
Eliminating the welfare state will further ensure that only those willing to work productively will immigrate to America.

Expensive background checks, at the expense of those seeking entry to our country, to ensure the debarring of jihadists, criminals, and persons bearing communicable diseases provide our nation with a level of security while still welcoming those rights respecting individuals who seek the abundant opportunities our great nation can provide. We attest that such hard-working immigrants can, and do, add considerable economic and cultural value to the nation.
