Every alt-righter and Trumpist who says that immigration impoverishes this country should be forced to look at what happens to U.S. economic statistics once you take out the majority-minority states (California, Texas, Hawaii, and New Mexico).

Immigrants go to those states because they are already more prosperous, not the other way around.

How do you know that? Have you done a causal analysis, or are you bullshitting?

I don’t know but it was you who originally implied that it was immigrants who made those states richer. It’s probably both to some extent but I would bet it’s closer to prosperity leading to higher immigration than vice-versa.

Leaving aside politics, isn’t it obvious that immigrants go to where opportunity is? Surely you don’t dispute that.
