My libertarian tendencies make me recoil at this idea. I don't believe it's the place of the federal government to dictate to business who they can and can't hire. It's the government's job to manage immigration and NOT the private sector's. On any other subject you'd probably agree with this statement about the government telling the private sector what to do, and that's what's funny to me with conservatives and immigration.
