A few years ago, in the middle of the European refugee crisis, I went public and defended the idea that the government has no business in licensing people’s presence on its territory. In other words, I defended the policy of open borders. And I did so quite passionately. I thought that the power of the government to have the last say over where people can move is a very dangerous power that is causing a lot of damage. Now, a few years later, a lot has happened. It is time for a review of my position. Did I get this policy recommendation right or was it a mistake?
