I can't speak for OP, but typically "Refugee Bad" is a stance I see regularly among rightwingers. We really do need a rebuild of the Civilian Conservation Corp, which built out massive infrastructure in the US. Not Potemkim style infra like ghost cities, but infra that is needed and useful. Bridges, dams, solar and wind, dikes, etc. Paired with effective economic and trade policy and you get a golden age for a few decades. People contributing to the economy and building infrastructure results in a lot of knock on benefits.
