Exactly - handouts. Just like Obamacare (Healthcare.gov). Wouldn't be surprised if it goes to Michele Obama's crony connections or to donors to his 2012 campaign. I do think it is …

+1 I'm a proponent of public benefit corporations. I think Kickstarter became one last year. There's also Just Capital, a nonprofit organization created by Paul Tudor Jones II with…

H1Bs won't like this answer, but it should be retroactive to all visa holders. Six years is six years too long to wait to fix things and get the situation to turn around.

Global open borders would create chaos. Imagine if homes didn't have fences or doors and anyone can just walk in & out of your home. The argument of open borders as "the best way t…
