Interesting strategies chosen in two op-eds. Tamar Jacoby argues that Arizona’s Proposition 200 might “discourage elected officials – particularly Republicans in Congress – from supporting the White House’s more compassionate but, for many, counterintuitive plan.” For people against the White House plan, that will be an excellent reason to support the initiative. Elsewhere, Ruslan Konstantinov uses the wall metaphor to argue for raising the H-1B caps. “For the disbelievers, there is a very good example of what building walls can achieve: just take a look at Mr. Kim’s paradise in North-East Asia.” The comparison would be more persuasive if our main problem were keeping people from leaving this country.
