It is also fun to ask them why they suddenly want government regulation of economic decisions. Less government is better, so why should government decide who they can hire?

They want to be able to use the system to punish/oppress immigrants when they're in charge and blame Democrats for all of society's ills because of immigration when they're not in charge.
