I think the "well durrhhh..." solution is to deny welfare rights to non citizens. But Libertarians have been saying this for eons. Why do you intrinsically say refugees are economic "bads"? Don't tell me you don't like people smugglers because they are dangerous and put refugees at risk - the same arguments are made for the monopolisation fo the term financial planner, or regulation of taxi drivers. If the man on the street equates keeping out feral and unkempt Arabs and Pakistanis with strong national defence, I won't suggest putting the wasted money of bribing Nauru, excising Tampa, et cetera, into buying cruise missile capability for our Navy and Air Force.
