Giving Them All Work Visas Would be the Right Thing to Do

    Tell me, again, why we want to reject any of these applications. Wednesday, the application window opened for visas for 85,000 highly skilled workers.

    More than 200,000 are expected to apply.

   Are they criminals? Not likely many are.

   Are they terrorists? That's not likely, either.

   Will bringing them overburden our population? Nope. Not at all.

   Are they taking jobs from U.S. citizens?  I know this: Competition for jobs is not always considered a bad thing. Everytime we go looking for a job, there is competition. You might say, Yes, but this is unnessary competition. These people are not Americans and don't deserve the jobs. We should save them for our own.

   I say, All people are important, regardless where they were born. We should care for people, period.

   There may be some things I do not know about these visas. If any come with government grant money subsidizing the jobs, I do not favor them. I doubt that is the case, but in a world of government subsidization, one might wonder.

   Other than that, give them jobs. When someone is offering a job, and someone is wanting to take it, why should government step in and tell the two of them it won't allow it? Why should Uncle Sam be allowed to tell them, No?  We should toss the government out of the business of standing in the way of hiring and standing in the way of employment.
