All of the disaggregated data shows that many immigrants make America worse.
It's disappointing that libertarian institutions have chosen to push propaganda for infinity Bomalians.
What I wish Cato, Reason, etc. would be saying is this:
It is true that many people in many places are incompatible with a libertarian America.
It is also true that America wouldn't be America without selecting for talented, industrious, pro-social people from around the world. We'd be France or England. We're better than them.
Immigration is a classic example of a central-planning problem. Using democracy to set a single, nationwide quota is guaranteed to be an inferior solution because it doesn't utilize local knowledge.
America ought to adopt market-based immigration systems. A prospective immigrant must purchase insurance and/or have multiple sponsors.
If the immigrant a) fails to contribute, b) behaves criminally or c) fails to integrate, then the insurance provider and sponsors pay substantial financial or criminal penalties.
Solutions in this direction would allow utilizing local knowledge to identify those who would make America more American, rather than inferior central planning.
[Instead of making reasonable libertarian criticism of conservative policies like above, libertarian institutions are going around intentionally lying. It's pathetic and disgusting.]

We can tell that immigrants on average make America less pro-liberty from Cato's own research
All of these graphs were published by Cato
