Howard Rosenof for Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal blog on
whether Donald Trump regrets slow-walking the upgrade of the Cheap
Labor Lobby's scab worker import quota lottery to a wage ordered
queue: <URL:

| Peter Keeble (Letters, May 9) hired H-1B visa holders and wonders
| why the U.S. educational system isn't producing enough qualified job
| candidates for Silicon Valley. The U.S. needs to find a better
| trade-off between an excessive reliance on foreign nationals and not
| having enough skilled people in the labor pool to meet market
| demand. In a recent book, I've suggested that H-1Bs be allocated by
| auction rather than lottery, much like the cap-and-trade programs
| used to reduce emissions. The available number of H-1B visas could
| be reduced slowly enough to avoid labor-market shocks, while
| employers who really need visa holders could still bid enough to
| hire them. This would also make it pointless for a company to submit
| multiple applications for the same job.
Does Susie Wiles worry that Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch will allow
Ron DeSantis to outflank Trump from the right on the National Question
by inviting the likes of Mike Emmons onto their campaign stage?
