Well could it be dependent on employment and housing availability? Are there 500m jobs that need filling? If not then they would not be able to apply. If there was a flood of people coming the housing market would see a shortage so again these people would need somewhere to stay before being granted a VISA. I don’t think unlimited necessarily mean without restrictions.
- desert_boi 6y ago> housing availability The real bottleneck in most American metros is more people than not loath density and want a garage and a yard. Without changing that, or finding a way to make it work, it's hard for the States to absorb people.
- munk-a 6y agoI think that's just a coastal problem - granted that is where a bunch of folks want to live but if you shift to some of the middle-america tech markets then housing becomes a lot more reasonable. I really do think that Americans need to figure their crap out though - either you live in the middle of a city or you get your yard. I hate cars so I'm pretty happy in the city but that isn't the opinion of everyone.
- ghaff 6y agoMany of the places in the US with space and cheaper housing in fact consist mostly of standalone housing.
