Immigrants and Institutions ft. Alex Nowrasteh

The economic benefits of immigration seem clear, but what if immigrants could harm our institutions?  CATO's Alex Nowrasteh joins the show to discuss his new book 'Wretched Refuse? The Political Economy of Immigration and Institutions'.  We talk about the fears that immigrants could lead to more terrorism, less freedom, and more corruption. Is there any evidence for those fears? Do immigrants actually have positive impacts on institutions and culture? We cover these questions and more!
