Immigration is a commons problem. Who should have access to a group’s commons? Possible answers: whoever can pay admission, whoever contributes more to it than they take away, whoever is sponsored by a member of the group, whoever the group votes to let in, etc.

A lot of the disputes end up with people talking past each other because they have different beliefs over the best way to decide who should access the commons, or underlying disagreements about whether certain people or groups add or subtract from it.

"most of a continent" is also a piss-poor way to define a commons.

noooo doubt. I mean to say that folks in Ohio might have some real things to say about immigration that are meaningless to me out in Cali.
