Every leader has a chink in his armor, and we're seeing them in both Musk and Trump.
Musk effectively answered the white hat question this past week, first by insulting the intelligence of those who see the debate differently, and then by de-platforming Lara Loomer on X. John Galt, he ain't, Folks.
Of course, Trump is personally satisfied w/ H-1B. It helped him to accumulate his great wealth. But if Trump wants to appear as less of a hypocrite and less out of touch than Musk, he's going to have to fall on his sword and abolish H-1B.
Do you see another way?
At its core, H-1B provides powerful corporations and wealthy families enormous cost-savings. And every major stockholder and every member of those wealthy families profit as a result.
Who doesn't profit? The American citizen whose job was given away to foreigners.
Anyone who is for H-1B should spend just two hours of their precious time talking with Americans who went to college for good paying jobs, only to have their own nation commit institutional betrayal on their sorry ass.
