They are determined to wipe out the middle class. They hate paying high wages to American techies and long to replace them with Pakistani or Indian lesser trained obedient serfs

They are determined to wipe out the middle class.

That is exactly the goal

Amen! They only want to exploit the lower and middle class for protit! Sick Bas____s.

they’re also trying to wipe out entrepreneurship. Many big technology jumps come from guys building something in their garage, or students in their dormrooms.

Now that the most recent generation of those innovators/entrepreneurs have “arrived” their goal is to undermine the next generation, which poses a threat to them.

Look at that jacka** CEO from Tesla who is trying to get rid of patents. He’s actually on the record as saying that if someone has a good idea they should just go work for a big company ...

What I find interesting is that socialist businessmen seem to think they should run a business just like Marx said Capitalist straw men do.

In short, free trade burns down the system by reducing wages to starvation levels, then the revolution can start.

I've always found it fascinating that you don't see a lot (or any) engineers over here on H1B visas from places like Germany, Japan, Taiwan, or South Korea. I wonder if it has to do with how much money those particular engineers make....
