Vivek Ramaswamy: "Merit-Based Immigration is one of the fixes to Economic Growth in this Country."
Breitbart ^ | July 29, 2023 | Neil Munro

Posted on 07/29/2023 2:34:36 PM PDT by Macho MAGA Man

GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy told Elon Musk Friday that he favors more immigration into skilled U.S. jobs and that former President Donald Trump made a “poor decision” by exiting the Pacific-region free trade treaty.

....snip....

About 20 minutes into the conversation, Ramaswamy also argued for more migration after Musk called for more migration:

I agree with that. I actually fully agree with that. And that’s one of the things where I think the Republican Party needs to define where we actually stand. There is an anti-legal immigration current [mood among voters] … I’m going to be on the debate stage in a month, and if anybody has any qualms with this, I think I’m gonna have a real problem with that because merit-based immigration is one of the fixes to economic growth in this country.

“Merit-based immigration” refers mostly to the inflow of foreign graduates into the well-paid white-collar careers needed by American graduates.

Many polls show that Americans — especially GOP voters — are increasingly outspoken against both legal immigration and illegal migration that is used to shift vast wealth from middle-class families to business leaders and coastal investors. The polls show the greatest opposition to migration into corporate jobs. Those much-denied populist attitudes fueled Trump’s win in the 2016 election against the globalist-backed Hillary Clinton, who prioritized Wall Street’s economic growth instead of voters’ pocketbook growth.

Here's more of Vivek Ramaswampy showing he wants to import immigrants to take American natural born Citizen's jobs. I can see it now, he'd saturate American jobs by importing immigrants from India.

I’m good with zero more immigrants, and kicking out every illegal of every nationality.
The US is being Balkanized on purpose, and it’s not to our benefit.

If these miggies are so “skilled”, why the hell don’t they stay home and use their “skills” to fix their own country?

Yesterday’s dinseenuffin about vote count fraud turned me off. More disagreement with Trump isn’t endearing.

Does he want to be Pence’s lapdog now? Not a job with upward career trajectory.

He’s probably being assured that Trump will be found guilty on one of the charges and jailed.

And when the Indians get into a company they drive out everyone but other Indians. Not to mention that cheating in school is rampant in India and your hires are likely to be incompetent.

Besides, I’m not sure how Ramalama thought this would boost his numbers in the Republican Primaries. Does he think he is a RAT candidate. Maybe he’s just confused.

Why is Vivek stealing President Trump’s platform?

“Speaking of jobs, we have to have more people coming into our country because our real number is about 3.6, 3.7. It took a little blip up during the shutdown and went up to 4. And 4 — any country would take a 4. But we’re about 3.7; probably going lower. We need people. So we want to have people come into our country, but we want to have them come in through a merit system, and we want to have them come in legally. And that’s going to be happening. We’re doing very well in that regard.”

Details needed. How would he define merit? A degree in a useless field like ethnic studies? And what does he think of our current NON-merit based system?

Vivek is reacting to the Soros Family orders to give them an open door to the Coke House.
