The Most Generous Nation in the World... at Giving Jobs Away

I am often asked to write something that describes the alphabet soup of
employment based visas. My website has a page devoted to visa types but it s
far from complete. To fill the gaps I recently wrote a more definitive
article: "The Most Generous Nation in the World.... at Giving Jobs Away."
(links below)

In it, I untangle the legalese that tends to obfuscate immigration visa
programs by using confusing terminology and more detail than needed. Every
employment based visa category is explained in a succinct style that laymen
(like myself) can understand. The essay was written so that it can be used as
a reference manual for those who want to understand the visa programs without
spending inordinate amounts of time to wade through tedious government and
legal websites.

The article is in the Social Contract Journal, a quarterly magazine that is
published by the Social Contract Press. There are many other good essays to
read in the new issue of the magazine -- many of them address the impact of
immigration on jobs. You can get a good idea of the theme of the essays by the
title of the newest issue: "Timeout! The case for a moratorium on legal
immigration".

Kevin Lamb s synopsis of the current magazine gives a good general overview
(story copied below).

One link that you should put on your "to read" list is an article he wrote in
2005: "The Leftward Course Of Human Events", September 22, 2005.
Lamb s excommunication from the conservative media is a story that should be
heard by everyone who is concerned about first-amendment rights to free
speech. It s also a tragic reminder that the bitter battle being waged between
traditional conservatives and neo-cons has human costs as well as ideological
and political.

Current Social Contract Features Moratorium Issue

Posted By Kevin Lamb On 30 March 2010

The current issue of The Social Contract contains a special feature on the
need for a moratorium on legal immigration. Contributors include a number of
regular VDARE.COM writers: Ed Rubenstein, Don Collins, Pat Buchanan, Rob
Sanchez, and Bay Buchanan.

Rob Sanchez reviews the wide array of visa programs, a virtual alphabet soup
of loopholes, which undermine the country s ability to cap immigration levels
and protect U.S. workers from being displaced in the workforce from wage-
busting immigrant laborers.

Considering America s economic recession and recent unemployment levels, one
wonders why our nation s political elites (Congress, the Conservative
Establishment, and the organized Beltway opposition to unlimited immigration
levels) have remained largely silent on such an historic opportunity to raise
the moratorium question.

Do we really need to import more laborers with millions of Americans out of
work and looking for jobs in such a tight job market?

Read the current issue of The Social Contract for a comprehensive treatment of
the subject.
