According to the “experts,” there are basically two kinds of jobs in our economy:

    Jobs Americans won’t do, and
    Jobs Americans aren’t qualified to do.

Under one of those two rubrics, U.S. employers in all sectors of the economy have successfully pressed for increases in a whole alphabet soup of guestworker visas.

Most recently, lower-skill employers successfully lobbied the Biden administration for 22,000 additional H-2B seasonal worker visas in anticipation of the summer season – over and above the annual 66,000 cap set by Congress. (Since the Biden administration is pursuing an open borders policy anyway, getting them to authorize more guest workers was not exactly a Herculean task.)

Kids today don’t have the opportunity to learn how to keep and hold a job, the jobs historically available to them are now going to 50 year old immigrants.
