You say you are a Christian conservative yet you employ the tactics of an agnostic liberal. That is get personal with the person you disagree with by attacking them, calling them names, and impugning their character.

Not exactly...on this topic, as on one or two others, say, illegal immigration, if a poster on FR quacks like a liberal on standard talking points, Imma launch nukes first and ask questions later.

That being said, your article which purports to support your cause, in fact supports the impression that you are a shill.

The supposed threat of unionizing of factory employees at Tesla, in no way justifies the flood of H1Bs.

H1-Bs are not used in factory labor anyway, but in software; the H1-B phenomenon started around 2001, and was a flood by 2005, long before Tesla's recent factory, and even the union factory rate is less than the typical H1-B software salary.

Here's a piece of advise: When you're in a hole, stop digging.

Stop throwing worse arguments after bad, please...

You are correct. It is my personal observation of you, and your tactics.

H1-Bs are not used in factory labor anyway, but in software; the H1-B phenomenon started around 2001, and was a flood by 2005, long before Tesla's recent factory, and even the union factory rate is less than the typical H1-B software salary.

For H-1B visas, the regulations define a "specialty occupation" as requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge in a field of human endeavor including but not limited to biotechnology, chemistry, architecture, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, social sciences, medicine and health, education, law, accounting, business specialties, theology, and the arts, and requiring the attainment of a bachelor's degree or its equivalent as a minimum (with the exception of fashion models, who must be "of distinguished merit and ability"). Likewise, the foreign worker must possess at least a bachelor's degree or its equivalent and state licensure, if required to practice in that field. H-1B work-authorization is strictly limited to employment by the sponsoring employer.

You didn't read it all obviously, or perhaps your comprehension level is as shallow as your Christianity & conservatism.

Go away little person. You do not even know what is encompassed by the H-1B visa program. I cannot intelligently communicate with someone who cannot see connections, even when presented with them. It wasn't about H-1B visas, but unions. Just for the record I have been in the software field for 36+ years, so I know exactly when it started and when it started to explode. You are no telling me anything I did not already know.

When you're in a hole, stop digging.

When I find myself in one I will, but in the meantime you need to follow your own advice.

Stop throwing worse arguments after bad, please...

Since you said please, here's some advice back at you, quit thinking you know it all. Because you don't. I already know I don't, but then again I do not present myself as a know-it-all.
