You're confusing the freedom to buy and sell goods with the destruction of borders. Hayek, for instance, warned that if the United States encouraged immigration without limits and taught multiculturalism to its citizens, it would fade away into what he called the road to serfdom and eventutally perhaps cease to be a nation at all.

Hayek was of course as determined an opponent of transnational progressivism as he was a proponent of free trade. http://www.unc.edu/depts/diplomat/archives_roll/2002_04-06/fonte_ideological/fonte_ideological.html

And that is exactly what is happening.

We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road,
progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road;
in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.

-- C. S. Lewis

America's definitely on the wrong road.
