This is what tech bigwigs Zuckerberg and Gates are actively supporting: more H-1b indentured servants.

“This is what tech bigwigs Zuckerberg and Gates are actively supporting: more H-1b indentured servants.”

Why do the Republicans always get associated with slavery? And Silicon Valley companies were also involved in wage-fixing. This is a fact. If “Fat Cat Conservatives” were caught like they were, there would be riots that no number of National Guardsmen would be able to control.

Also, it drives me nuts that Europeans look at us with disdain over slavery in our increasingly distant past. Europe effectively had “indentured servitude” well into the 20th century - oh, it was very genteel, but you could be sure that with class structure the way it was, you could never make enough money to own anything, and even if you had it, nothing would be available for you to be bought.
