You can find a Freeper to object to any policy that might be perceived as threatening his subsidy or protected gravy train of any sort, but there are a good number who object to bringing in high-skilled workers for IT—exactly, IMO, the immigrants we want and need. (Need to give them some political philosophy detox classes before making them citizens, however.)

"object to any policy that might be perceived as threatening his subsidy or protected gravy train of any sort"

That covers a lot of ground, including immigration attorneys, big company CEOs, real estate developers, and of course, politicians of either party.
