What is it going to say? “You can’t get five year old ‘New Hires’ at the Indian orphanage anymore.”?
Can you still count cards or tell me how many toothpicks there are?
I know Tuesday’s are very important to you so, I can wait until tomorrow for your reply...
Rather sparse on information. What exactly does it do? What about the backdoor L1 visas and others?
H1B should be suspended and current visa holders given 90 days to leave the US.
I’d like to see a $50K application fee per H1B visa in the first year and then $75K in the second year and$100K in the third year. Let those businesses who claim they can find qualified American workers pay through the nose to bring in foreigners.
Then disallow tax expensing of business expenditures to foreign service providers to reduce outsourcing.
;-)
Next - offer up a subtle refinement to the scope of investigation in the brouhaha on “Russian hacking” of the election. Broaden the task to look at all efforts, foreign and domestic, to influence the election, in particular efforts by Google and Yahoo to tweak their search algorithms to de-emphasize search results critical of their favored candidates (e.g., Hillary Clinton) and to emphasize search results critical of their disfavored candidates.
Just kill the program and require legal immigrants to have jobs. Enough with the numbers games.
Yes!! More Winnjng!! Some of our top students at leading universities have been unable to even get a single sillyCon valley interview — not one — also American engineers with excellent records of successful invention and development have extreme difficulty getting into major companies if they’re over 30 - as they must be if they have such fine work records and accomplishments. Why? The sillyCon valley recruits and hires foreigners
Guam depends upon H2 visas to import labor from the Philippines. If it were not for Filipinos and Chinese nothing would get done here the Chamorros are too lazy to work.
I agree because we do need the program but at the same time we need to make it a employer of last resort.
I think that the H1B ‘bosses’ should be forced to put down on the form the current salary of the worker being replaced, and then be mandated to pay that exact same salary to the import guy. If you lie on the form and say it’s not a replacement guy, but you end up doing anyway....then a fine of $2 million per situation ought to be required.
It’s time to treat this thing as a bogus deal to bring cheap labor into the US.
High Tech is an important economic engine to this country. Their leaders should be jaw-boned and squeezed, but not their workers or industry.
