We are honored to have as our presenters some of the finest and most competent proponents of open borders in the United States today: Richard Ebeling ([link removed]) (Sep. 30), Jacob Hornberger ([link removed]) (Oct. 7) Bryan Caplan ([link removed]) (Oct. 14), John Washington ([link removed]) (Oct. 21), Benjamin Powell ([link removed]) (Oct. 28), Donald Boudreaux ([link removed]) (Nov. 4), and Jacob Hornberger and Richard Ebeling: Addressing Common Objections to Open Borders (Monday, Nov. 11)

Whenever there is a government program that is producing death and suffering among thousands of innocent people, that is a strong sign that that is a bad government program.

Moreover, when the enforcement of that government program brings into existence a police state that destroys the rights and liberties of the American people, that’s another strong sign that that is a bad government program.

America’s decades-long immigration-control system meets those criteria. Throughout the lives of everyone living today, this system has brought death and suffering to thousands upon thousands of innocent people. It has also brought into existence an immigration police state that has succeeded in destroying the rights and liberties of the American people.

Why are we holding this conference?

I have two favorite quotes. The first one is by the great German thinker Johann Goethe. It captures perfectly the plight of our fellow Americans: “None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.”

The second one goes to the heart of why we are holding this particular conference. It is by the American author and poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox: “To sin by silence, when we should protest, makes cowards out of men.”

For 34 years here at FFF, we have been making a simple but very important point about America’s ongoing, never-ending immigration crisis: The crisis is caused by America’s immigration-control system. Therefore, there is but one solution to America’s perpetual immigration crisis. That solution is to dismantle America’s immigration-control system. That means open borders — the free movements of goods, services, and people across borders — just like the system of open borders we have here domestically between the states.

Today, immigration continues to be one of the burning issues of our time, especially during presidential races, just as it has been all of our lives. Death and suffering among immigrants and an immigration police state continue to be part and parcel of our society. To sin by silence when one should protest is not a viable option.

I am confident that this will be the best overall case for open borders that has ever been presented in the history of the libertarian movement. It will address all of the common objections to open borders — the welfare state, sovereignty, borders, jobs, and all the rest. Hopefully FFF’s conference will cause more people to see that the only solution to America’s immigration-control system of perpetual death, suffering, and a police state is an entirely different immigration system, one that is based on open borders and the liberty, peace, prosperity, and harmony that come with it.
