Regarding Donald J. Boudreaux's column “Mr. Trump, don't build those walls!” : I am not an economist, but I can understand his points about tariffs and manufacturing.

However, I am hard-pressed to understand his points about immigration. Maybe he can explain to me how bringing in a horde of illegal immigrants to go on welfare, food stamps and taxpayer-funded health care will “enrich” our country.

It seems to me that they would just be joining the millions of current citizens without jobs who are also on the dole. I must be missing something.
