Ep. 70: The Economics of the American H-1B Visa Controversy

Published 1 year, 3 months ago
Description

Bob referees the recent debate among Trump supporters over the H-1B program, especially the remarks from Vivek Ramaswamy on American culture. Despite its official purpose, the H-1B program does in practice allow for pay below the domestic salary for a given occupation, but that by itself doesn't mean it hurts Americans.
