And of course the big tech Republicans all LOVE the cheap foreign labor themselves. Look at Senator Mike Lee of Utah, who can otherwise seem like good guy, is absolutely 100% behind increasing H1-B Visa expansion by like 5x the amount.

Why? Well, Utah is trying to turn Salt Lake City into Silicon Valley tech hub 2.0. They are trying to lure people as an alternative to California. And, to be fair, it's not a bad place to go for tech jobs right now. Lots of engineers in the valley there too.

But damn, Mike Lee is not doing it for the benefit of the American people, he is straight-up just trying to lure the billion dollar investors and companies to come there by pushing massive corporation friendly labor laws that make it easier to get cheap foreign labor. That's how I see it.

Repubican establishment still doesn't put Americans first, even after all that Trump showed them.

Blame the Mormons on the drinking thing, I grew up in that, but fuck if it isn't a cult. Based AF, but also backwards in many things
