Why are we even talking about this. I would have been happier dealing with this issue in like 2 years after we cleaned up with illegal mess. Somehow I think there is a portion of our plan being played out of order. Like why is musk on such a tirade. We were all having a nice holiday thinking about usa getting Greenland and Panama canal back and maybe Canada. But why change the tune, what is the real intention here. Is it just to get the conversation going. It's elon on drugs or something??? Like we need to just focus on regaining our sovereignty and our destiny that we delivered, like why is elon making this stand when we haven't even begun. He could have limited the whole issue whole he's working on doge and said he was improving to help Americans while still making available for legal immigrants and I think most of it's would have been like "go for it dude, we trust you but no he stirred up controversy"

Maybe the real point in all of this is not H1B visas at all. Maybe it’s as simple as people who see themselves as “MAGA Elites” engaging in infighting.
My personal thoughts are that President Trump is going to have the economy booming at a level where this H1B debate is rendered moot. And, the disappointing thing about this infighting is that the people on both sides should know that.
My gut feeling is President Trump will eventually end the H1B system because it’s a bad system for American workers and it’s a bad system for the people brought here through it.
There should never be a work visa system that allows businesses to import lower wage foreign workers and keep them here in perpetuity, with little hope of becoming a permanent resident or citizen. The system only benefits big business.
This is one aspect of it that I'm thinking. But as the poster above said, both Musk and Vivek could have been much more diplomatic about it.
