My understanding is the program is like a pipeline. To be just, the government should close the entry point, but not eliminate the pipeline until all those who are in it finish the process.

This is the problem: Temporary workers are temporary. Their arrangement stipulates that they work in-country for a number years, and then return home.

It needs to be made clear that temporary means temporary.
