Economically, immigrants boost innovation—patent rates are higher among first-gen folks (NBER study, 2019). Moore’s asteroid bit is hyperbole, but the brain-drain risk isn’t.

Correlation isn’t causation. Jobs was born here—deporting his dad pre-1955 wouldn’t have stopped him. Moore’s argument hinges on hypotheticals, not logic.
