>>15125To begin with, I'd caution with believing anything Scott Adams claims due to his history of lying about objective facts, such as giving incorrect numbers off of news reports that supply different numbers for things.
Anyways!
>having the immigration system be based on skin color, biological sex, religious beliefs, and the restAs far as ideas go, this would be terrible at the level of like having both Joe Biden and Donald Trump barbecue a kitten on the White House Lawn and then share in the charred kitten sandwich.
>trying the absolute hardest to recruit not just experts but basically anybody helpful when it comes to national security relates jobs such as in nuclear physics and in AI developmentThis is absolutely vital, I think, but it will also be considerably expensive (while it should still happen) given how European nations and other places are rivals to the U.S. on this. Germany in particular, if I remember right, is aggressively trying to gain an edge over the English-speaking countries here. And China does what China does.
>general limits on skilled immigration to the U.S. should be eased up so that something like 1% or so of the total labor force are made up of these peopleAs a framework of various other ideas, this makes sense. However, I think that the positive spillover effects of skilled worker based immigration plans mean that more should be done. These people a)are more law-abiding than even native-born people, b)are prolific consumers, c)are steady taxpayers, and d)are beneficial entrepreneurs. They're like giving a deeply tired person a line of cocaine in terms of energy and confidence. I'd say that ideally they should be something over 5% of the total U.S. labor force. Maybe around 10% or so. Thus. Although, not half, not a third, not a fifth, and so on... assimilation of immigrants to a general social culture still requires a lot of effort.
