see Jeremy Neufeld for Rupert Murdoch's letters section on why
Donald Trump didn't turn the H-1B lottery to a wage ordered queue:

| Replacing the lottery with a points system or salary-based ranking
| should unite H-1B skeptics and advocates. If one thinks the H-1B is
| a source of cheap labor to undercut natives, awarding visas to the
| most productive applicants should end abuse overnight. If one thinks
| a few sensationalist stories are unfairly giving a good program a
| bad name, then ending the lottery will improve the visa's reputation
| and value.

Does Kellyanne Conway fear Ron DeSantis will run to Trump's right on
the National Question by inviting the likes of Mike Emmons onto Ken
Griffin's campaign stage?
