The whole H1B argument got me thinking about this. I think first and foremost we have to trust President Trump to continue his track record of promises made, promises kept. He will put American workers first.
We also have to think about what a Golden Age is. If we’re living in a period of great peace, prosperity, and happiness will many of our current arguments and debates become moot?
My thoughts are we should hold our fire and reduce our stress levels. President Trump’s vision for the future includes an economy so vibrant that people who want to work will have good paying jobs in their fields. The fear and resentment of being replaced by low wage foreign workers will become a thing of the past.
And based on President Trump’s first term actions, I have a hunch the H1B program will be overhauled to prevent foreign workers from being brought in at lower wages.
I can only guess what becomes of working age people who are able to work, but currently don’t. My thoughts are the welfare and unemployment systems will be restructured to give people an incentive to work.
Somehow the system needs to reward people for entering the workforce and, at the same time, make it clear that if adequate jobs are available they will not be able to opt to take welfare payments.
The real change will be that our government wants people to work and get ahead, versus trying to trap people into a permanent Dem voting block.
The incentive to work will be tax free jobs working for companies that don’t pay tax and can afford amazing benefits that make living on welfare seem truly pathetic by any and all comparisons.
Hopefully.
A couple/few decades ago, there was a proposal that single parents on welfare would have to get a job (training/education would be provided and would be free) because welfare would be cut or eliminated after a certain amount of time.
Of course that proposal failed. TPTB couldn't have THAT pass because it would have eventually done away with a whole segment of society that was totally dependent on government hand-outs; was mostly unskilled, uneducated and unemployable; and - IF they voted - were virtually guaranteed to vote Dem to keep their gravy train(s) - and all associated money-laundering, money-grubbing NGOs - in operation.
It also virtually guaranteed the destruction of society and the nuclear family/two-parent households (because welfare basically punishes two-parent living arrangements) and guaranteed the proliferation of children (from numerous baby-daddies) being born to single mothers and shiftless/"unknown"/untraceable fathers/(sperm donors) (because more children without fathers who might be able to pay child support = more welfare $).
