If we are to insist on buying American, we also need to insist on hiring American.

Why the he’ll do we need to import more foreigners who want to turn the country into the same shithole they left? They have been driving down wages in the tech sector for more than two decades.

Not sure I believe this. H1-B is normally people who already live here. Normally they are students. Or family of other workers or students. We aren’t normally importing H1-B workers. Many were F1 first then move to H1-B after their F1 expires. The F1 is a year of practical work after graduation from a US college. The H1-B allows a 3 year period of working and can be renewed for an additional 3 years. In that time you either get a green card or you don’t. They let in about 250,000 of these a year. The idea is that it keeps the population growing slightly. The US would be shrinking if not for immigration. We don’t have enough babies per families to keep up the population.

Now that is not to say that I support all immigration. But we do need to fill in the working ages a bit. Millennials are the largest group. But under them we have a fall off. Boomers are a big generation. Gen X is too small. Gen Y (millennials) are big enough. But Gen Z is not. Ideally, we would like to have enough working aged people to take care of and pay for the retirement of the larger boomer generation that is 56 to 74. The strategy is to grow no more than 1% a year. But not to shrink. If you shrink the economy starts to shrink as well. Homes, stocks, and other invests loose their value.

Just because it is Breitbart does not mean that we should not do our own checking. They can be just as much glory hogs as the rest.

So we are importing more H-1B’s in the middle of a pandemic? I am in IT and on an all hands call Thursday and there was a hint that there could be layoffs coming when the presenter was asked . But , there is still a need for this? I have been saying all along this is nothing more than a scam and a state sponsored invasion of our country.

I guess ‘Made in USA’ doesn’t apply to our workers.

Rather hypocritical...

If we don’t know this, Indians will ordinarily hire only Idians; Somalis, Somalis. Etc.

YMMV

This is one of Trump’s biggest failures. Shut down the program and put the US workers first.

Lots of people will be looking for jobs and Trump does this. He needs to get control of his subordinates.

Cancel this crap. What we do not need is more H1b’s. In fact we need a dramatic reduction in H1b cheap labor.

As always, the American worker is the last to be considered, if we are considered at all.
