On the topic of Tino, anti-immigrationist.

Tino's very persuasive anti-Caplan-on-immigration-line is here. While Tino is only responding to a part of the immigration argument, he effectively says: the evidence that ethnic diversity undermines the welfare state is weak, and supporters should back off. His final line:
It would be more honest, and more interesting, if Caplan acknowledged that there is no guarantee that the universe is designed in such a way to remove tradeoff for his ideological principles.
I'll personally bite that bullet.

Well, noble of you to take the bite, but the problem is that the policies you champion extend far beyond your personal space.
