Was immigration restriction as big a factor in 1950s ‘equality’ as unionism? It’s a question today’s liberals don’t want to ask, let alone answer.

A sequel would describe how the Great Restriction on immigration (from around 1921 to 1965) helped produce the Great Compression (i.e. the relative income equality of the mid-century) as well as fostering beneficial integration of various ethnicities. https://t.co/grMFLVsVxZ

If the ‘real’ truth is that deaths are rising among the bottom 10% by education, especially in rural towns–well that doesn’t exactly contradict the broad “despair” narrative as it filtered down to me (ie. non-merit winners tossed on scrap heap). https://t.co/DEXkGNSgAi

I’m not sure this makes sense (in the short run Biden’s abandonment of the border is likely to elect anti-amnesty Republicans). But that doesn’t mean the Biden administration can’t think it makes sense. It’s a bit Piven-Clowardy.

There’s a third possible answer, I think: 3) Biden (or aides) think that after his term there will be so many illegals (and TPS recipients, etc) in the country that the pressure for broad amnesty will somehow be irresistable. https://t.co/YmIa5zBn5b
