The have NO ethics. They have NO character. They are NOT honest.

Do we really want these opportunists to be the new Americans? They're part of a swindle racket stealing jobs from Americans.

Isn't this more of a comment on unregulated capitalism as practiced and advocated for by wealthy tech oligarchs? They paid for politicians to open up these immigration quotas to get cheap labor and then an industry got propped up to fill this demand. Who is surprised by this?

There are plenty of opportunists in America and these people will right in. They see the current US President lying, taking bribes, hawking bibles and cheap watches, scamming crypto, and on and on...

Just another nothing burger. These tech Oligarchs already explained they want immigration. I just don't see how your argument does anything. It's like the corporations that try to call us racist because we won't let in these poor people from Latin America, when guess who is down there ruining economies. It sure isn't me. Or blacks that say it's the poor white's fault there was slavery.

Oh, but if I don't want immigration, oh I'm racist, because I don't want to let the corporations have only everything they ever wanted.

Your argument is what exactly? People in another land see an opportunity, pursue it, and some percentage use unscrupulous methods to exploit that system. That's human nature. Would it be okay if it were Americans doing it?

Immigration has been a net positive throughout American history. You may not like it and I don't care to change your opinion but facts don't care about your feelings right?

So instead shitting on immigrants, how about focusing attention on the wealthy oligarchs that manipulate and abuse the system at the expense of Americans whether they are 1st, 2nd, or nth generation immigrants.

Remember the Alamo! Oh yes, we are well aware of people that just want a little economic opportunity. Wanna rethink the ramifications of that one?

Chamber of Commerce lawsuit against this fee- H1B is not just for the best and brightest.

Sixty years ago, on October 3, 1965, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Hart-Celler Immigration Act into law. Little did the man who declared war on poverty know that he was restarting mass immigration, ending the Great Leveling, and ushering in a new era of economic inequality.

Ironically, Johnson Congress created new economic barriers to equality within a month of passing landmark civil rights legislation. George Fishman, who has served in both the Executive and Legislative Branches, likens their mistake to a Greek tragedy. But what once could be forgiven as a costly but honest miscalculation must now be acknowledged as a willful refusal to manage immigration in the national interest. Despite the temporary improvements at the border over the last few months, mass legal immigration continues at levels well beyond what federal commissions have recommended or Americans voted for. It’s easy for Congress to break its promises, and so very very hard to keep them.

“The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission.”
--Ted Kennedy, 1965 Immigration Bill (Hart-Celler)

where are the future Democratic leaders that will make Democrats the party of labor again?????

My view of the "Civil Rights" era has changed quite a bit recently. My current view(don't confuse this with any views you may have), is that the Democrats were intentionally fragmenting the working classes (civil rights) giving nominal short term workers protections. EG a minimum wage not indexed to inflation. In exchange for long-term structural inequities.

Why do we still have an H-1B program?

The number of imported workers should be zero right now.

Why do we let the elites replace our children with cheap disposable foreign labor?

Average salary on H1B is well below that of software developers.

Too much common sense for DCUM crowd. Wow! Expecting universities to train students for required working skills ! Oh the humanity!

Universities across the country are importing foreign workers on H-1B visas instead of hiring Americans who are qualified and available to do the job. We will not tolerate H-1B abuse in Florida institutions. That’s why I have directed the Florida Board of Governors to end this practice.

Florida leads the nation in higher education, and thousands of highly qualified Americans graduate from our colleges and universities every year. If any universities are truly struggling to find U.S. citizens to fill their job openings, they ought to evaluate their academic programs to determine why they cannot produce graduates who can be hired for these positions.

Looks like desantis is taking a page out of trumps playbook.

Governor DeSantis directs Florida Board of Governors to pull the plug on the use of ALL H-1B visas in Florida universities!

“Why do we need to bring someone from China to talk about public policy? Assistant Swim Coach from Spain on an H-1B visa! Are you kidding me?”

This is progress

Of course it would be better if Democrats advocated for US workers first

It would be nice if the USA made it possible for Universities to do this. First, they would need to put back in the tuition subsidies that used to exist. State schools used to be very close to free (you could earn the tuition through a summer job). This was because of massive state subsidies. In most nations, secondary education is close to free.

but second and most important we would need to fully fund K-12 education in all communities in the US. There are things you have to learn when you are young and your mind more malleable. Universities cannot replace this lack for students who are 18 and older. But most K-12 schools are no where close to doing their job. Only our least competent students become teachers these days due to low pay. There is not money to buy books, let alone tech.

So, ya, we import our doctors, scientists, tech innovators from countries that either have populations so large that their top earner provide enough people to get an adequate number with gifts in this area, or countries where there is good investment in education.

If any universities truly “need” to import H1Bs to fill jobs, the question is ...

WHY THE UNIVERSITY IS NOT PROPERLY PREPARING IT'S OWN AMERICAN STUDENTS FOR THOSE ROLES?

Massive state subsidies led to universities raising their costs.
