Crovitz, L. G. (2011, October 31). Steve Jobs’s Advice for Obama. The Wall Street Journal. Retrieved November 16, 2011, from http://online.wsj.com


The article named Steve Jobs's Advice for Obama discusses about the formal talk between Steve Jobs and President Obama. Crovitz (2011) reports in this article from the Wall Street Journal that the regulations which are partial cause the difficulties of economy infuriated Mr. Jobs. While many companies in Silicon Valley try to support for the U.S. economy, it is gummed up by the government’s official rules. In particular, the immigrant policy has caused lack of talents or outstanding engineers in the U.S. because they tend to come back their countries to find good jobs instead of waiting for long time of having green cards. In addition, Crovitz mentions that Apple employs 700,000 workers in China since there are inadequate engineers in the U.S. Therefore, the company can create hundred thousand jobs in the U.S. if the immigrant regulation is simpler. 140,000 green cards are issued per year is not enough to the demand of the economy. It is hoped that there is a change for the better in policy to encourage the best students to stay and work here.
