If we hadn’t dumbed down the educational process we wouldn’t be needing these folks from outside the country.
We gots to spnds mo’ on educatin’ our yuths!
I have worked with these Indian H1B visa holders, many are educated in America; in fact they are no smarter and in many cases not as smart as the American guy they replace, but they are cheap...quit blaming the American worker and defending the scum that do this...the job you save may be your own...you can’t be a patriot as your name implies if you advocate giving foreign workers preference over American workers.
The education process is not the problem - at least not yet. I was personally displaced and my job was outsourced to an Indian firm hiring exclusively Indian workers. For 2 months now, I have been going begging for a job (without a result). The H1 and H2 visas are currently maxed out, which means well over 100,000 American jobs are going to foreign nationals -- and that's not even counting the jobs outsourced in the manner my job was taken.
Now 100,000 is not 5,000,000 -- the total job losses to date... but it's a start and the money those 100,000 would be spending in this country would be a certain stimulus to our economy.
The companies don’t need the talent...they can find that here. They need the lowered salaries that these folks are willing to work for. H1B visa is a form of indentured servitude. They can’t change companies and seek higher wages, they have to work for the company they were brought in to work for, “the sponsored employer.”
Perhaps. But what is going to be done about that problem?
