[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m third gen Indian.  Grandfather immigrated here during the late 1950s on a student visa.  In those days, Indian workers were prized and highly sought after by US employers for their incredible work ethic, professionalism, skills, etc.   He had planned to return to India after his education however a major corp made a lucrative offer (and he received his green card within months after joining) he could not refuse it.  Many of his college buddies did the same, but not all of them.  Most all of the Indians who emigrated here prior to the 1980s were extremely talented and hard working.  I recall most all being scientists, engineers or medical docs.   It’s sad to see the Indian worker, and particularly h1b worker so vilified these days.  [/quote]

The vilification has happened due to racism and general inability of America and Americans to compete with the rest of the world, in hard STEM fields that requires intelligence and hard work.

The poor standard of K-12 education and general inability of parents to teach their kids at home means that many cannot compete in these subjects.

The vilification is due to resentment and jealously.  [/quote]

I am a descendant of immigrants, but my spouse and I were born in the United States. Both our parents married US spouses, and thats how they got citizenship. We both work in big tech and medical fields and do feel that it's been overrun by H1Bs, both doctors and IT workers. This was acceptable when unemployment was low, but it's not the time for them now, as college graduates are competing with their low wages and are facing unemployment. Therefore, we don't see a shortage and agree to shut off H1Bs for the next few years.[/quote]
Are MAGAs willfully ignorant or just plain ignorant? If this PP “agrees to shut off H1Bs for the next few years” then it’s not going to magically bring thousands of American doctors out of unemployment.  And she says she works in “medical fields”. :lol: [/quote]

:lol: American doctors are not unemployed. There is a shortage of doctors in America. :)[/quote]
