Dream on.

Politicians aren’t going to abolish any such thing or change it willingly or by the vote of the steeple. They like things just the way they are:

Confused
Controlled by special interests that fund their campaigns
Their privilidged status for life
No term limits
A process mired in secrecy and contorted rules
They like cheap illegal labor because their benefactors like it
They like a monster tax code so they can favor friends and punish enemies just like their handlers tell them to do.

The situation is as hopeless today as it was in 1938 when Jimmy Stewrart made “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” A decent man can’t survive to fight. The system is totally corrupt.

The irony is that Trump isn’t beholden to anyone. The usual suspects don’t have any claim to him. He may lose sight of the people who put him in office and the promises made to them. Sessions is doing well as the new AG and Gorsuch may help end the lunacy from the SC. I hold out hope that he’ll end the abuses of the H-1B program.
