"Just the result" is a secular, demystified approach to the mechanics of the situation. If Hart-Cellar is revoked and a Wall is built, then the decreased flow of migrants is simply just the result of those things.

well as long as people feel that there are gains from trade, then that's how its gonna be

and if families are stopped at the border and refugee status is denied, that is how it will be as well

itd stem the tide of immigration but why that's desirable as such is a mystery to me. if capital finds cheap labor overseas itll go to it, and when US bombs come with it itll provoke further attacks on the US

It's a mystery to you because you have a limited worldview

Flow of goods does not necessitate flow of migration. Japan is a good example of this.

Japan was a stagflation economy after being propped up by the UN and has seen economic growth in conjunction with increased immigration

You see reduced GDP growth as a bad thing, I do not. Reduction in population, slowed economic growth is more easily sustained in the long term

yes, the lack of GDP growth occurred in Japan during times of more homogeneity than now, and growth has further been spurred by liberalization of trade. They have not yielded successful growth from lack of immigration. There's no causal relationship there.

I never suggested there was a casual relationship, I said flow of goods does not necessitate migration. I would rather Japan experience a slow reduction in population, reduced economic growth, and remain wholly Japanese. This is also more ecologically sound.
