That's not how country caps work - the total number of visas aren't rising. Rather, the whole global total of visas issued could now theoretically be issued to people from just one country, rather than a max number placed on certain countries.
This means our visas can be provided more meritocratically and without affirmative action to bring in more "underrepresented" people
It sure is! There is no reason you cannot apply a superlative (ally) to an adjective (meritocratic) to make a superlative (meritocratically).
It may not be in your dictionary, but those don't always contain every potential form of a word - I would comfortably use "meritocratically" in a legal brief.
We've got qualified people HERE IN AMERICA already. All they want is cheap slave labor because OUR PEOPLE demand a Living Wage and our Oligarchs don't want to pay for skilled work.
Did I say anything about any of that? No.... But you're spreading fake news.
The GOP did not vote for "unlimited cheap labor from India" and you shouldn't be spreading that false narrative.
I agree that we need to reform our immigration policy but if you are going to tell people that removing country caps has that effect, you're no better than CNN.
And you sound like you lack the capacity for intelligent thought - you're spreading lies about our immigration policy because you don't care to know better.
Prior to this action, there was an overall cap on visas issued. There was also a rule that no more than 7% of those total visas could come from one particular country. Now, the 7% rule is gone but the overall cap stays in place (and in fact, it decreased, but you couldn't be bothered to care about facts).
So now there will be fewer Visas issued next year, and we won't be taking in less desirable people from other countries to try and game that 7%. This is undoubtedly a good move
Immigration needs to be ZERO. Period. End of Sentence. We've got 12.6 million people without Jobs right now and you're telling me we've got to bring in Foreigners to do Work?
Trump should veto all of this and send them a photocopy of his ass.

Serious question is this a word? If it is I really like it.

FUCK YOU
I never said we need to bring in foreigners. Keep arguing with that straw man
