The Corporate Push for Cheap Labor:  Dave Brat shared his concerns about how corporate America exploits immigration policies for profit. He pointed out that CEOs and the tech elite focus on STEM workers and engineers but ignore the vast potential of American workers. "If you’re really going to put the American citizen first, why not focus on the third graders in Chicago who are reading at a 12% literacy rate?” Brat asked. He emphasized that the American education system needs reform to unlock the talent within the country. "If we educate our kids properly, we have plenty of talent right here,” he said.

Immigration as a Tool of Exploitation: Brat made it clear that immigration is a key issue revealing the true priorities of corporate elites. By focusing on importing foreign workers, they sideline American citizens, particularly in the middle class and minority communities. The current system, according to Brat, maximizes profits for corporations while leaving everyday Americans behind. Bannon echoed this sentiment, agreeing that the focus on foreign workers shows who the elites are really serving. Brat’s solution: invest in American education and stop relying on foreign labor to prop up corporate profits.

The Moral Foundation of the U.S.: Brat and Bannon also delved into the importance of America’s moral and cultural foundations. Brat stressed that the U.S. benefits from a Judeo-Christian moral framework, which sets the country apart from others like China and India. "Name me a great university off the top of your tongue in China or India,” Brat challenged. He contrasted the U.S. system with China’s failing economic model, emphasizing that moral foundations are key to long-term success. While tech giants like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are brilliant, Brat warned that they should not profit at the expense of the American worker.

A Paradigm Shift: Brat and Bannon agreed that what America needs is a paradigm shift. The MAGA movement, led by President Trump, is attempting to break the status quo and reshape the political landscape. "Immigration always cuts through the noise,” Brat said, referring to how the issue can reveal who is truly on the side of the American people. Bannon added that this shift is necessary to restore justice, particularly by returning to the values of the Judeo-Christian West. According to them, the elites will do everything they can to maintain the status quo, but the American people are ready for change.

The Path Forward: As Brat and Bannon look toward the future, they see a clear path to victory—one that puts America first. They believe the American people, especially those in the middle class and minority communities, are ready for change. However, this can only happen if the focus shifts away from corporate interests and back to investing in American citizens, from education to job opportunities.

Brat concluded by promoting his content on Getter and his website, "Brat Economics,” as a resource for anyone looking to understand the economic and political forces at play. The conversation served as a call to action for American citizens to wake up and demand a system that works for them, not the global elites.
