Please explain why you are going after one visa over the one Trump uses. Did I say you don't have an option voting? Comprehension is important. |

Can you really not read through this weblog and figure it out? I ask because maybe you're just fishing for another answer you don't like. You might need to read between the lines; this weblog is patrolled by Democrat corporate HR trolls that take down any criticisms of corporate HR policy. |

Let me just expound upon this. How do Democrats expect to win, when they can't even enumerate the oppositions position. Maybe you can pretend like it doesn't exist or is morally objectionable some more. We are over three hundred posts into the thread at this point. |

Not very libertarian of you. |

Why can't you respond to the post about why it's ok for Trump to use foreign workers but not other businesses? Is it because most of the h1bs are Indian, and most of Trump's foreign workers are white Eastern European? |

We like his policies better than the Democrats that is why. Like this $100K fee that is what I want. Can I say more about how great those policies are? |

Why can't you explain why you are ok with Trump using foreign workers but not other companies using them? Why don't you support $100K fees for the visas his company uses? Is it because those are for white workers, but h1bs are mostly used by Indians? |

You seem to think this is a defect in the policy itself. You don't seem to understand that one day we can like immigration and the next not so much. It's a big flaw in the program that it is totally tone deaf to the local employment conditions. Where one day we may want to issue temporary visas and the next day we want them to go away. It's just like an at will employer. When the employer no longer wants to employ the employee. Bye bye. You see one day you're working for the employer making money for the employer and the next. Not so much. It's context. This absence of context and ability for the program to adapt to rapidly changing employment conditions is a major reason to get rid of program in and of itself. Is that clear or is there more evidence of the inability of the program to adapt to local conditions? |

everyday more progress for US citizens
The CEO of a tech company that is one of the biggest H-1B visa sponsors in the U.S. said they would no longer be hiring applicants on the visa amid a Trump administration visa crackdown. Tata Consultancy Services’ CEO K Krithivasan said that the Indian tech company would reduce the number of H-1B visa holders in its U.S. offices. Krithivasan told the Times of India that the company would “continue to hire more locally,” adding that this was part of a “reduction in dependency on visa-based talent.” https://www.newsweek.com/h-1b-visa-sponsor-will-not-h-1b-applicant-going-forward-10871156 H1B is a TEMPORARY work visa and yet everyone treats it as a permanent work visa leading to US citizenship. just more lies about the program created in 1990 by Bush to facilitate companies replacing US citizens with cheap temporary labor. |

Finally looks like Indians are realizing h1b is indentured servitude to make US billionaires richer.
Even though our own government led by democrats, and republicans, pushes for more and more replacement of US workers with cheap h1bs However, they must listen to this stark warning issues by an Indian origin a software developer with over two decades of experience and a known critic of U.S. immigration policies, "Please don't come to #USA. These are lies. Don't believe me? Talk to anyone who came here to study in the last decade. Your dreams will be shattered. There is no future after your education is over. Your entire career will be chasing #H1B visas. Green cards for Indian born has a wait time of ~100 years #greencardbacklog." Suren wrote on X. He was responding to U.S. Ambassador Eric Garcetti's post inviting Indian students and parents, urging them to attend the upcoming EducationUSA Fairs across India. "This is your chance to meet representatives from more than 80 U.S. universities and learn about admissions, scholarships, and much more. Register now to make your dream of studying in the U.S. a reality," Garcetti enthused. https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/us-news/dont-come-to-usa-your-dreams-will-be-shattered-indian-expat-warns-students-of-visa-and-immigration-trap-101723193254791.html And why was a US ambassador, a Democrat of all things, encouraging the replacement of US citizens with cheap H1bs? Democrats are not the party of labor anymore. another example of why Bernie says that Democrats abandoned the working class. |

Are you telling me that we have a dearth of low skilled workers in this country such that we have to import them from Eastern European countries? |

Right, so this isn't the win you seem to think it is. Those jobs will just go offshore. So, we lose the tax revenue. Unlike some of you on here, I've worked in the tech industry for 20 years, including at FAANGs, working with the likes of Cognizant. Also, a lot the patents are created by H1 holders turned permanent residents turned US citizens. |

Yes, there is a backlog for Indians getting green cards because there are many of them. I mean, there are many of them in the world in general, so it stands to reason that proportionally, there are many in the US, same for the Chinese. It can take Indians up to 10 years to get a greencard, whereas it takes half that time for someone from Europe. It's a numbers game. |

| The fundamental issue is not within the H1B structure. It is the offshoring of millions of tech jobs. The small little start up I work for had 200 employees in the US two years ago. We now have 20 and hundreds in India. The engineers in India are 10-20% the cost of an American engineer. This is where the jobs are going - not to H1B holders. |

This 100%. I would also argue that much of the AI tech that is promoted by companies is a team in India doing the work. The quality and accuracy just isn't there yet. |
