• MEDIA: Implementing American Creation

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Thu Sep 29 11:19:29 2022
    H/T Morris Dees and $PLC certified deplorables, US Tech Workers, twitter.com/USTechWorkers, see American Moment's Saurabh Sharma for
    The American Conservative and Yoram Hazony's Edmund Burke Foundation
    on whether Donald Trump regrets dispatching Jared and Ivanka Kushner
    to Silicon Valley to sue for peace with the likes of Mark Zuckerberg: <URL:https://www.theamericanconservative.com/implementing-american-creation/>
    | On immigration, this border crisis is ultimately a war on normal
    | people. There's little consequence for people in the sheltered dens
    | of the Hamptons, Bel Air, Palm Beach, or the Palisades. They get
    | cheap labor and moral comfort, but middle-class people suffer as
    | their wages depreciate, the quality of their communities
    | deteriorates, and their political power is diluted. The correct
    | amount of illegal immigration is zero, but we cannot stop there. At
    | every wage level, our legal immigration regime is a spigot used by
    | our political enemies for their benefit, and to the detriment of our
    | people. This is obvious at the low end where the lion's share of
    | migration happens because of our border crisis. But I would submit
    | to you that even the high-end immigration system we have today is
    | largely a lie perpetrated against the American people to steal rungs
    | of the economic ladder away from them. Our guest-worker programs,
    | our high-skill visa programs, and other schemes of corporate welfare
    | prey on the idea in most people's minds that we are inviting
    | Einsteins into our country. Well, the problem is that either there
    | are millions of Einsteins in the world and that's why we've blown
    | these programs way out of proportion, or that it's a situation not
    | unlike the Afghanistan refugees from last year. Apparently, every
    | single Afghani was a translator and, apparently, every single 45k-a-
    | year tech-support worker brought in from Nepal is going to invent
    | the next iPhone. Seal the border, and enough with mass immigration
    | for the next decade, so we can give the American people back their
    | culture, their economy, and their safety. There's probably no issue
    | more critical for rewarding the people who constitute our base.

    Does Bill Stepien fear Ron DeSantis or other MAGA candidate will get
    to Trump's right by campaigning for an immigration moratorium?
