I am not being disingenuous, I’m trying to figure out how what you posted clearly states there are more jobs than unemployed people.
Nothing in this: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf shows that.
And yeah, heavy manufacturing jobs are horrible. They’re unsafe, unskilled and don’t pay much. We should embrace automation for this kind of work.
I freely admit I don’t know the hardcore specifics of H1B. I used it as an example of conservatives like Kirk being opposed to foreign immigration and employment in the United States.
Im a city planner. I find this stuff more interesting than anything.
