The way they usually get a job is by first getting higher education in the US, so lying on the resume of any experience abroad doesn't really factor in. The job is mainly on the basis of the domestic education, not the foreign experience. Foreign work experience alone doesn't carry much if any weight for getting employment in the US.
The US is supposed to be a free country without any protected class either way. In the same way that I wouldn't support a protected class for descendants of slavery, I wouldn't for any settlers either.
The hardship faced by immigrants now have to do with with the stability of their visa, which is something that settlers never had to put up with. It is not a joke to be chronically stressed by whether one is at risk of losing one's legal status, also waiting for years for their paperwork to process. These are stresses that people like you and I never experienced first-hand.
I believe in merit-based employment and in training of citizens, without favoritism of any kind. As for work visas, I have already noted that they should be limited to those with a PhD (except for farm labor), and this will eliminate much of job-related concerns that people like you and I might have. Taking extremist ring-wing positions is not only unnecessary, but it opens the door down the road to someone eventually classifying you as not being sufficiently righteous.
Note also that one benefit that citizens already have over visa workers is that citizens have more possibilities for entrepreneurial activities without being encumbered by work restrictions.

It would make sense to have just one form of it, probably just inflation or otherwise a population-normalized land ownership tax. An alternative tax could be minor gas fees on a government-managed privacy-enabled gold-weighted crypto coin. Do you know how rich people actually spend their money? They squander most of it on frivolous nonsense. Most of them are not looking to improve the lives of other people, and they mostly just want the gravy to continue while they take their scheduled monthly vacation in a distant land. I wouldn't exactly call them productive people. The person making your food delivery at low wages is more productive. The person struggling with problems, working to solve them, also is productive. As for the government, it has both good and bad programs. A simple metric to measure is -- could they increase the life expectancy of people cumulatively over the next one hundred years, and by how much? This is the ultimate metric really. You continue with your entitled feeling, now at the national level, and it will be your downfall. The truth is that West (mostly the UK) is actually what divided too many countries quite arbitrarily and unfairly in the previous century, leading to many unnecessary wars between them, also sowing terrorism. There is nothing but contempt toward the West for these actions. Consider it good fortune that the US didn't do it. Trump voters look to have zero capability for independent thought, as they always agree with what their master does, as if he can do no wrong.
