Washington DC, CRAP WEASELS

Title says it all! Uni-Party strikes again... I'm interested in 0zombie opinions on H-1B visa program

How about a regular American view.
Why are we allowing immigrants to come and take jobs of Americans under the guise that there are not enough Americans to do the jobs when the fact is they are replacing them with cheaper immigrants and there is no shortage of qualified American workers.
This is not a left or right issue as Republicans have allowed this to take place just as much s Democrats have. This is just more crony capitalism that fucks over Americans.

With over 95 million Americans that have left the work force because they have given up looking for work, we do not need any immigration at this time. we have not had time to assimilate those that have come here legally much less deal with the 12 million or so that have come here illegally.

There is no shortage of qualified professional white collar workers or blue collar workers in this nation. Our immigration problems are the result of an open policy that should at this time be closed and should have been closed for many years. The inability of our government to do one of the jobs they are required to do has created so many issues. We do not have a broken immigration system, we have a broken government failing to run it properly.

You can blame some of the companies taking part in this program. Have been several reports on this, taking very well paying jobs from qualified Americans and giving them to K1 visa holders.

It took good paying American jobs and replaced them with cheap foreign labor. It is called Capitalism I suppose...a paradox of grand proportion.

so blame unions for driving up labor costs for a lot of movement of jobs overseas. it's not the USA's fault other countries have dirt poor people and no industrialized business that pay modern G20 type nations. Job's aren't going to Germany, they are going to Mexico and other non-developed countries.

to a lessor degree the insane corporate tax rates are also to blame. tax breaks here vs. Mexico are vastly different. Yeah US states roll out big tax cuts to get businesses to move to their state, but those don't last forever. long term, taxes are cheaper elsewhere.

Absolutely, you should blame greedy American companies. Our government allows it, also.
