On Christmas Day, a debate erupted on X between different factions of the right over H-1B worker visas after businessmen like Elon Musk , David Sacks, and Vivek Ramaswamy spoke up in favor of the program.

Many conservatives and libertarians say reducing the size of government is their top priority but rarely consider the factors that drive its growth in the first place.
