Parapundit: Obamacare Will Raise Immigrant Quality

A silver lining in the ObamaCare fiasco?

My contrarian take (that has only just now occurred to me): Obamacare will accelerate the automation of low skilled jobs. This could deliver a big net benefit, especially on immigration.

 If you think that's wild, get this:

My biggest complaint about Obamacare: It doesn't raise labor costs enough. We need to tack another $5 per hour onto minimum wage jobs. We need a higher minimum wage. This should be an urgent priority for the Republican Party. With both parties supporting this improvement to the American labor pool it could pass into law quickly.

Now that's what I call thinking outside of the box.  If a straightforward argument doesn't work, then go for the guile.
