59. Well if Democrats don't get elected ACROSS THE COUNTRY

that "moral position" will be toast anyway, and immigrants will continue to be A HELL OF A LOT WORSE OFF with the alternative than they would have been with the so-called "centrist" Dem position.

I guarantee you that not everyone who is dealing with the impacts of on-shoring is going to vote Democrat. I probably always will ... my top issue is environment, and Republicans are idiots at best in that area ... and usually worse than idiots. But not every potential D voter will support what would happen if you just rip out all immigration controls all at once. Especially if they feel their own job, and ability to support their kids, is on the line.

I can also tell you that a lot of the on-shoring is of kids of well-off families who just love taking advantage of the exchange rate. It's not like so-called high-skilled visas exist for humanitarian reasons. They don't. They exist to make billionaires wealthier. (which the DSA is supposedly against, but if so they are clueless in their immigration position.) And WTF do they (and you) think will happen if all limits are ripped away? There will never be another American hired in my field, except in the few positions that require being a US citizen and getting a top clearance.

I wouldn't mind so much if they were always competent. (some are ... but the program rewards gaming the system, so quite a few frauds come through) I'm thrilled when I get a new co-worker who actually knows what they are doing, and I don't care where they're from. Too bad it doesn't happen nearly often enough.

Don't forget that Melania also got one of those so-called "einstein" visas. "HIgh skilled visa" is a bad joke.
