Only if visas can only be paid through earned income or returns on investments made with such. Otherwise you're mixing people who bring value by contributing labor with people who contribute capital. Both can be nice, but should we treat them the same or independently?
- zbentley 1y ago> paid through earned income You’re describing a tax on visa holders. That’s an interesting idea; I can think of some benefits and some scary drawbacks/abuses/perverse incentives to doing this as well. Has that been tried anywhere?
- groceryheist 1y agoI dunno, I'm not a policymaker. What drawbacks do you see?
