Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Vivek: Kicked out of DOGE? Elon Beef? Trump Relationship and More

And pay that shit to the United States of America. Pay to America, right? So you want to make America great? We got a Social Security gap. Yeah. Close the Social Security gap by saying that if a company wants to hire somebody with the equivalent of a new H-1B system, make them actually pay. So there's a higher barrier to hire that foreign-born worker.

But the company will pay whatever it's worth to them to do it. And by the way, when they do it, they shouldn't be indentured servants of that company. They can work at a different company. They work freely. That's a pretty efficient approach, and it could actually use to close the Social Security trust fund gap or anything else. That sounds to me right now— But those are wonky policy solutions.

But the deeper question, though, because everyone likes to go there— I agree. No, this is good. —and get to the hard question. Let's say even after you have that system, I believe it is likely that companies will still, in some measure, hire— Workers that include workers from other countries.

And by the way, a lot of CEOs, what they'll say behind closed doors and what they do behind closed doors is if you tell them they can't do it here, they start opening up sites in other countries. That's what's happening. Some of the most successful startups in the country right now, founded by names of people who, I'm not going to betray confidences, you all would recognize.

have told me in recent weeks, right, in response to all of this, what people need to know is that I'm actually building teams in places like Brazil, in places like Europe. But that's just because it's cheaper. It's not because they're smarter.

But it doesn't matter. That's not good for America. You're going to hire a Brazilian engineer. It's not good for America, right? It's not good for America when you create those jobs in other countries. So the question is, how do we address the deeper question of... It may create airplanes. Yeah. Well, it's actually kind of interesting. And removal of pubic hair.

We want this to be the country where the greatest things come out of our own homeland. I agree. So the question to ask, the hard question is, why, when given the choice, are companies not making the choice to hire more American-born workers than we want?
