how did you manage to come up with such a complex forumla to solve the immigration and welfare problems?
Very einstien like.  |
Haaha I'm not sure everything is going to be "ok" and there would certainly be a greater disparity in social / wealth classes but such is the cost of freedom. I believe the above is DEFINITELY much more inline with the intentions this country was founded with. Shit, this country was built on immigrants and continued to grow via immigrants for hundreds of years...
One additional piece that would need to be changed is minimum wage... that would need to go away. I know there are a lot of minimum wage supporters on this board but think of it from this perspective... Who is the government to deny anyone the right to work for a wage that is acceptable to both parties? I guarantee that if you open the borders according to the above there are tens of thousands of workers that would be more than happy to be able to live and work in the United States for pay that is less than the current minimum wage. We'd see a definite rise in available manufacturing / production jobs if it became equally as profitable to manufacture in the United States...
Anyway, now I'm rambling :P
