That, I believe, is one of the reasons why the H-series and E-series exist in the United States, along with the L visa. It gives you the opportunity to bring foreigners into the United States, either for a limited (but finitely-extendable) period of time, or permanently.
You can argue that the current forms of those visas do not work, but that is not my point: My point is that the above reason is why the visas exist.
To bring my point back around to tariffs: I think making the above-mentioned visas harder to get goes against the purpose of the tariffs. If you want manufacturing etc. brought back here, then make it easy (or easier) to get the knowledgeable folks who you need to train the folks who will do the manufacturing here.
- thephyber 2y agoHalf of the administration primarily wants to onshore all the things. The other half wants to primarily kick out foreigners to reduce competition with domestic workers. They don’t have a plan, only hopes.

- yalogin 2y agoThis administration has no logic, that much is established. They are driven by two different philosophies - a burn it all down and build again and another stop all immigration now. Both these philosophies are both unified by racism/dictatorship tendencies
