The current political disagreement about permitting ANY foreigners into the U.S. will be self-defeating. What we should be doing is recruiting all those new graduates with Masters and PhD’s and MD degrees, offering them a real fast track to citizenship.
Because the U.S. birth rate has been so low for decades, we are desperately short of young people to enter the work force to replace the aging population who are no longer working. Our problem is exacerbated by our lagging education system, compared to many other developed countries.
The ONLY solution to our problem of having far more jobs than people to perform them is to permit foreigner to enter the U.S. to work. The key to that strategy is to recruit those who are experienced and educated to do the jobs we need performed! That would include all those talented, experienced, hard working Philippine nurses that we’re currently keeping out of the U.S.
