> Low-skill immigrants are a net positive in the long term (i.e., once their children grow up)

In a magical hand-wavey manner where we ignore alternatives, obvious consequences, and opportunity costs.

They gloss over the reason they are considered a net positive is because almost everyone is.

For example their models will show that if the poorest Americans have lots more kids we will collectively be better off.

It’s pretty much just economists and the Catholic Church who believe it.
