It's in the interest of citizens to get their goods at the cheapest price. Thats why you have imports, which is no less than importing the produce of labor. With people, you have the added benefit that if people working within your cou

US immigration is in the biggest crisis in decades - between rhetoric & admin burden from Trump, covid, and ossified bureaucracy, it is the worst time in history for a tech worker to migrate to the US. Each time a developer works for th

Would be better to make the debt dischargeable - it's a form of debt forgiveness that has skin in the game for college graduates, particularly those that didnt do well at all.

Housing definitely is sticker than stocks - but that is a sleigh of hand. Buyers unwilling to lower prices are taking themselves off the market, not sustaining the market price. Volume would go down, and whatever is sold will be done at a m

US immigration is cratering, it's a national crisis nobody cares about. The supply constraint is old but its not why housing is high - housing prices are high even in places where there is a lot of construction. Monetary policy explain

Diversity is a dog whistle to be honest. Either you are on the diverse team or your aren't. It's important to understand the core tribalism around picking up this word and standing by it.
