I'm sorry. So here's the thing. This is a big country. There's 330 million people in this country. And the H-1B numbers, I think, are the order of magnitude.

Yeah. It's like low six figures, you know, or maybe not even high five figures a year. You can find them. And if you can't, do you know what businesses are supposed to do? They're supposed to pay taxes. The government can use the taxes to create a skilled labor force. Skilled labor forces don't just appear. They're not sui generis. You have to spend money on infrastructure.

You have to spend money on education. You have to have a social support network to go into disadvantaged communities and find bright people and build pathways to have them elevated and realize their potential. But of course, these guys don't want to do any of that. They want no part of paying for the infrastructure of a government that actually runs a society and creates human capital.

They just want the human capital so they can make money. And for them, the H-1B visa program is a way of short-circuiting all obligations to the society in which they luxuriate and operate and make so much money. And I, you know, like, fuck that. JBL sent out this rant. Pay your taxes. It was pro Karl Marx and Laura Loomer.

This is also like the Obama critique. Remember, this is like, you know, you didn't build that, which is always right, right? I mean, you have a business selling widgets. Well, your business depends on the fact that there's a police force to enforce the rule of law and a government which isn't going to govern by fiat, right?

Your business depends on the entire society functioning, and that's why you pay taxes. And instead, these guys want to pay fewer taxes or no taxes at all, and they want their labor to just magically appear and even better if that magically appearing labor will be cut right and can't leave. Here's my view on this.

So I actually think they're going to get away with it. So can I just, I want to propose something, and then you guys tell me if I'm wrong. The founder class, the Elans and Viveks and Andresens of the world, they don't want unfettered immigration. They only want immigration that helps them. They are indifferent to all other immigration, like agricultural, seasonal workers.

Who the fuck cares, right? They certainly don't want normal immigration. That's bad. They don't want people coming in for asylum. They want immigration that helps make them money. And they now have a president who seems to now want to give that to him. People forget Trump was against H-1B visas.
