Questions that are rarely asked

From the comments, from VTProf:

Another consistency question: can you simultaneously believe that minimum wages have small disemployment effects (implying inelastic demand for labor) and that higher immigration has small negative wage effects (implying elastic demand for labor). Sign me up for relatively elastic demand for labor (in the long run) – that’s why I support immigration and am skeptical about min wage!
