It's not hard to consult with various employers in agriculture, construction, factories, landscaping etc and get an idea how many temps they foresee a need to hire in a given year. Then create that many temp visas and let the workers fill them up, perhaps differentiating by skill or experience if possible. It won't be perfect but it would replace what the border-jumping system does now.

>>Temporary visas for mexican professionals under NAFTA have been in place since 2004 - the farm/labor visas could be created pretty easily if not already in place - the trouble I see is the I have no specific job lined up - I just want to get into the USA and see what I can find while standing in front of Home Depot visa.<< DB - No such classification currently exists, nor is one being proposed. There. I'm glad to have resolved your trouble for you. - Allen
