I wish there was a way to do an updated Bracero Program for the 2000s. A way to bring workers in to do the seasonal or migrant jobs that frankly most people in the US can't or won't do. This provides a way to track who is here, make sure their work environment is safe, and though we'd pay more for products but not as much as if we paid citizens the 10+ dollars an hour they want.
Granted the original Bracero act was full of issue with treatment and racism, and it was war time, but if people are doing the jobs anyway, why not provide a way to do it that covers more of the bases for workers, consumers, and employers, as well as government.
