How market-based visas meet political needs

which advocates for a market-based approach to solve undocumented
immigration across the US southwest border.

The article identifies the various axes along which we can measure the
impact of undomented immigration on America. Then it identifies where
various political stakeholders such as conservatives, liberals, moderates,
libertarians, businesses, and hispanics stand on each of these axis. Having
laid out this matrix, the article proposes a solution “Market-based visas”
which is a compromise “2nd Best Solution” for all the stakeholders. See the
solution summarized below:

<strong>”Market-based Visas</strong>
</p>
<p>
Market-based visas are predicated on the assumption that
employers are entitled to hire employees; that we will never
deport undocumented immigrants in material numbers; and that
conservatives are entitled to limit guest workers to the lowest
number which ends the black market in Hispanic labor.
</p>
<p>
As the chart below shows, MBVs achieve conservative goals with
the exception of mass deportation and with the requirement to
increase the migrant headcount by 500,000 to allow for the
demand effects of legalization. Businesses have to accept that
they will have to provide pay and working conditions at levels
comparable to those for unskilled US labor — but employers can
access more workers faster as compensation. Democrats and
Hispanics receive legal status for seven million undocumented
Hispanics and on demand access for migrant labor, subject to
visas numbers set to conservative preferences and the resulting
market price for a visa. Everyone has to make a concession, but
these are the necessary steps associated with lifting a
prohibition. After a one-time adjustment is absorbed, the
system should work reasonably well for most stakeholders.

Thus, MBVs can meet the requirements of all the major
stakeholder groups with one material concession from each.”
