      I have a feeling that Hillary's call for greater immigration restrictions isn't going to produce nearly as much fury and bile as Angela Nagel's article advocating something similar, even though the former has a slightly more influential platform than the latter.

      When I first started writing about politics - only 13 years ago - open borders was maligned on the left as a Koch Brothers/multi-national corporation plot, while traditional leftists hated it. Here's Jamelle Bouie in **2013** on A-A immigration oppositionhttp://prospect.org/article/how-african-americans-view-immigration-reform …

      This is why her essay is so necessary. There's a clear and rapid shift happening (especially among the intelligentsia/activists, but also among elected officials to some extent) and the theory underlying it hasn't been adequately elucidated or argued

          I feel like there hasn’t been sufficient distinction made between the free movement of human beings and the free movement of capital.

          First problem is that by proposing that policy "the left" would destroy it's chances of winning elections in democratic primaries, which is it's only viable path to any sort of power.

          Notice how they will talk about anything but what will stop this crisis: Ending the wars and other military interventions-and changing the economic system that is based on extortion and loan sharking. Instead, let's add to the misery of the biggest victims of both.

          who has ever seriously suggested totally "open borders"? you're engaging in a right wing straw man

          That's probably not an accident though. Open borders is wildly unpopular with every demographic. They're keeping it stealthy and trying to hand the country a fait accompli.

          It all makes sense when you realize that the dems aren't "left," but corporate shills representing one wing of the white collar professional class, and that they just define themselves as being against whatever trump is doing
