It's a win-win. The Trump base will be happy because Americans shouldn't have to compete with low skilled immigrants for jobs. The socialist wing of the democratic party should be happy because Australia and Canada both have merit based systems. Will the political establishment be able to block it, that's the big question.
Meh. I don't think the current level is bad, but I also don't think that cutting it in half is necessarily bad either.
Although it will be interesting to see where the opposition comes from. Because my guess is that a lot of business folks will oppose it. Including the Koch brothers, who donate to a lot of R campaigns.
Of course businesses will oppose. A great number of immigrants are employed sponsored. Some others, like Cubans who the Republicans like to import are mostly unskilled.

All immigrants are dumb as rocks...thanks for that enlightenment and loss of IQ points.
The slashers are back. Cutting out waste, fraud and abuse wasn't enough. They are hacking away at other disastrous policy's that drag down the country and make us more like the third world. Liberals hate that. They will resist. Its what they do.
Right out of the fascist playbook. All hail Trump.
Nice, and not a minute late to the party, someone breaks open the liberal playbook, if you don't like the other guy they are automatically a dictator/hitler. Well done, keep the game going.

Looks to me that this will be another great legislative success for Trump - like the ACA repeal. But - I could be wrong...
I disagree somewhat. I don't think family members should be allowed in simply based on a connection to a U.S. citizen or legal immigrant. It has spiraled out of control and far too many members of the family end up being a tax burden to us.
Agreed. ( Are you surprised?)
