Because I'm not ashamed.
Jobs are a bedrock social justice issue in the United States. H1-B creates( and will continue to create ) profoundly unjust outcomes for American workers.

Social justice for all is a basic requirement for peace in all groups regardless of scale.
Train and retrain your workforce as much as needed on the tax payers dime, but you are never guaranteed a job.
How many times are you going to repeat this?
You should be wary of protectionism.
This seems ripe for a reference request. When has there been either globalized trade or a period of sustained world peace? I'm most definitely skeptical, and would happily be convinced otherwise.

I think statements like "The world has known only ONE model of peace" don't reflect the nuance of the claims made by your references. For example, the hypothesis of "The Impact of War on Trade: An Interrupted Times-Series Study" is "trade promotes peace".
The Jackson paper[0] includes a stronger statement: "In the context of the alliances we have analyzed, trade motives are essential to avoiding wars and sustaining stable networks,", but all like all good science, acknowledges "in the context of the alliances we have analyzed".
Like I said, the premises and findings of these papers make sense to me, and I don't find them surprising, but I don't think they support such an absolute statement.
Thanks again for the links! I wouldn't have likely have come across them otherwise. Good stuff!
