Abstract
Donald Trump’s mass deportations are raising the prices of critical goods and services, gutting a key driver of innovation, and eliminating just about the only force working to rein in the national debt. With immigrants less likely to commit crimes than native-born Americans, to call his crackdown misguided is an understatement.
