I cannot believe this is even an argument. People are so dumb.

Did you listen to Trump's hate speeches about illegal immigrants taking jobs from US citizens on his campaign hate rallies? Hatred, racism, sexism are the foundation of MAGA.

Doesn't matter if they are no skill immigrants or highly skilled immigrants. At least low skill immigrants don't mostly take jobs Americans want.

I don’t disagree with Charlie at all, even if I despise his usual race baiting. And I’m a liberal urban Democrat in a $500K W2 household.

Someone from the D’s could absolutely clean up with disappointed Trump voters by promising to go hard after wealthy business owners who abuse the H1 B system and hire illegal immigrants. Go hard after Uber for letting undocumented workers abuse accounts. Promise to arrest Musk and any other tech CEO that lays off Americans and then tries to increase their H1 B.

There’s a huge opening here for a pro labor Democrat who has some alpha energy and is 30 years younger than Biden.

There is a big political opportunity for the politician that truly embraces the working class, middle class, and labor. Not the current Democrats who elevate all identities except for class, and who openly despise the working class. Not the current Republicans, who are happy to exploit them. But a politician that actually fights for the working class? The politician that understands why Luigi has become so popular even if of course nobody can defend his behavior? They could do well.

People view both parties as exclusively the parties of the elite, which in truth they are. It is time for a political movement to rise that’s based on solidarity.

We Dems need to stop with this gotcha nonsense. These voters who are rebelling against Musk still aren't going to vote for us next time. And with this gotcha attitude Everytime something happens in the MAGA world we haven't learned any lessons and we will lose again in 2 years and probably in 4 years.

Well, we said that, but MAGA and Trump still insisted that those low skilled illegals were taking American jobs.

IDK.. if Trump lets in more foreign workers at the expense of Americans, I think a lot of people will turn on him. His MAGA base is actually not that big. It's the Independents and crossover Dems that the R needs. Those people can easily turn against Trump.

+1

Trump won because moderates and independents voted for Trump.

Jeff just posted this, and Where is the H1 hater on this thread? Jeff, can you tell if they've posted on this thread? I would love to hear from that person.

No, I didn't.

Just sick of working long hours for months to complete a huge project which was a success, by the way, and getting nothing for it. Meanwhile the execs walk away with all the $$ knowing it's gotten very difficult for us to find other jobs. Getting paid below market rate is better than no job at all. That's partly why we haven't been replaced.

You elected the billionaires.

No, I voted for Kamala.

Kommunist Kamala and her open borders? China loves her and Doug.

Elon needs China, and he bought Trump's presidency. Look at the CR that was passed. It has Elon's influence all over it. Seems to me that China is loving the Mumps.

Also stripped from the bill was a provision that would have limited US investments in China, particularly in the technology sector.

Democrats have slammed the removal of the measure, arguing that its absence would benefit Elon Musk, who helped derail the bipartisan package on Wednesday.

“Musk’s investments in China, and ties with its government, have only grown over the last few years – alongside his growing involvement in American politics,” Rep. Rosa DeLauro, ranking member of the House Appropriations Committee, wrote in a letter Friday to congressional leaders.

“It is no surprise, then, that ‘President’ Musk does not want to see a funding deal containing this provision be signed into law,” she wrote.

The measure would have “prevented wealthy investors from continuing to offshore production and US intellectual property into China,” she wrote

Another thing to remember is that not all of this is greedy corporations exploiting impoverished foreigners. Plenty of it is people already here getting family and friends here by any means necessary. I have firsthand experience with this.
In my own family I have a cousin in law who got into management at a tech company and his department now employs exclusively his extended family members. He sees nothing wrong with this. In his eyes he's helping his relatives which is what good people do. The problems of the American programmer aren't on his radar.
Last month I went on a job interview and the interviewer seemed unusually hostile, grilling me about my personal life (children etc.) I am not used to being treated that way because I am a highly competent scientist in an in-demand field. I asked for a lab tour and the interviewer refused. I peeked in the window on the way out and saw that only one ethnicity worked there. I did get multiple other offers so I'm not some unemployed person whining.

I have seen this happen in Fairfax County. A lot of a certain group of H1 holders would brag about getting over family for the same H1 visas, even for jobs like “administrative assistant”. How are American kids to get trained to be the top 10%, when certain groups of people have no problem abusing the system?

It’s BS that American students don’t know how to work hard. I have witnessed in Fairfax County Schools, H1 visa parents starting in elementary school, actively trying to push out any American kid who competes in STEM. Try to call to get your kid into group programming lessons? They hear you are not of their ethnic group and either don’t call back or say they don’t have openings. I have been told “Well this is for OUR community only. Where is YOUR community?” How is this fair? If I was white and openly said “I am only teaching white kids” in my publicly advertised business, people would rightfully be upset. Why are H1 visa holders allowed to be discriminatory?

I have seen math competitions done at certain competitive elementary/middle schools that had parents grading. No parent could grade their own kid, but they would help a friend out/try to shoot down kids outside of their ethnic group. It’s easy to do. “Well that I interpreted that a as an 9 and that’s wrong.” All the way through high school, certain parent ethnic groups would make sure they ran the stem clubs, even going as far as a teaching a few years in a top stem high school, all to make sure they appointed their kid as club leader and/or made sure their child was selected for State/National competitions. By starting early, these parents push out other American born students from getting the opportunities to develop upper level talent.

I am for immigration, but it needs to be 1) fair 2) regulated more 3) anyone admitted into the United States needs to actually believe in equality & fairness for ALL people. None of this gaming the system and then saying “Americans are lazy” as an excuse to tell yourself that what you are doing is OK.

Meanwhile, on the western side of FCPS and other parts, we are flooded with the children of poor immigrants. Our PTA couldn't get programs like this going. Teachers were against it unless we could guarantee slots to the poor. When the PTA said it could accommodate that, it still got shot down. Something about supervision and lack of transportation for after school clubs. Also, the school wanted to eliminate or greatly reduce homework and canned the science fair. Teachers were struggling to get students through the most basic material -no wonder they didn't want to do anything like a stupid science fair. This is where we are. It's no surprise certain ethnic groups that were once part of the school community went elsewhere.
