Obama Prepares Give-Away of White-Collar Jobs And Citizenship To Foreign Graduates
Breitbart ^ | September 28, 2015 | Neil Munro

Posted on 10/07/2015 8:00:06 PM PDT by Freedom56v2

President Barack Obama’s deputies are quietly hacking a gap through immigration regulations to allow them to import hundreds of thousands of university-trained foreign workers for jobs sought by American college grads.

“They’re bending immigration law until it almost breaks,” says Ian Smith, a lawyer at the Immigration Reform Law Institute. The Obama-hack, he added, should be fixed by Congress or a judge

The regulatory hack is part of Obama’s broad immigration-boosting alliance with Fortune 500 Companies and the GOP’s establishment. In 2013 and 2014, most — but not all — of his prior amnesty and immigration plans were blocked by voters and judges, despite furious lobbying of the GOP by business.

If Obama succeeds, he would make life tougher for young and middle-aged American graduates, who are already facing wage-cutting competition from the roughly 1 million white-collar guest-workers that the U.S. government allows to live in the United States. The extra foreign graduates would also deter young Americans from high-tech careers, and provide the Democratic Party with more donations and more voters.

But Obama’s hack would also spotlight a large opportunity for any GOP 2016 candidate eager to win votes from America’s young college-grads, their parents and the hard-pressed professional sector. So far, only Donald Trump has seized the opportunity by promising to make foreign guest-workers more expensive to hire. If he is elected, and reforms the H-1B program, he’d likely transfer roughly 600,000 guest-worker jobs to American graduates.

That’s almost equal to the number of Americans who graduate each year from college with skilled degrees.

Basically, Obama’s regulatory hack would convert a long-standing bureaucratic band-aid into a process for printing extra work-permits.

The decision has not been announced, but is being finalized by officials at the Department of State and the Department of Homeland Security, Smith told Breitbart News.

That is one bad mark on Cruz and I like him, but that is one negative. Trump’s is eminent domain. Both if they were a team they would be unstoppable force.

TPA = He thought it was good, but after voting for it initially, the bill went to conference with the Senate and Cruz said those tweaks went too far.

Corker = He believed he would have greater moral authority to say it was bad if he had voted for it. Also, he thought he could convince a supermajority to still do the right thing once the default number of votes was inverted (66 to stop vs. 66 to pass a treaty (which he also didn't think could be forced to be considered as a treaty)).

Both are lame and ultimately helped his wife's CFR/Goldman Sachs wife get what she wanted for her employer(s).

And the darling of the Establishment, or should I say one of the darlings, Rubio is all about this. This is everything he stands for. I’d love for him, hopefully he’ll be gone by the spring, to go to commencement exercises all over the country and tell those kids that because of him and the people that control him, none of the kids will have jobs in the IT field. Apparently, Toys R Us is doing the same thing with their IT folks that Disney did with theirs. This is disgusting.

And then wait til the big unions, UAW, etc, figure out that they can fill their ranks with all sorts of 3rd world ugly. The democrats and Establishment/RINO GOP have destroyed this country.


From what I am reading, Rubio is the WORST regarding H-1b Visa expansion!

I read about Toys-R-Us situation today....won’t be shopping there anymore....just like I am not going to buy any Disney related products.

The only person we have donated to is Cruz this whole campaign season.

Cruz's inexplicable votes (I looked aside on his H1-B vote, thinking it accidental/misinformed) since our decent-sized donations made me quite uptight.

I like Ted, but I don't trust his consistent support of his wife's goals. He claims he was lied to or did his best, but it all looks intentional, for now.

At least Trump is consistent for my expectations of him.

Same here...and Cruz is the candidate I continue to support. Actually, if I thought that Trump could benefit from it, I might throw a few dollars his way as my little reward for the outstanding service he is rendering BATTERING the GOP establishment and the Washington uni-party. But I don’t even know if the Trump campaign is currently accepting donations.

This has been going on since the 1950s. I am a retired high tech worker and they have been propagandizing that there is
a shortage of engineers forever and a lot of us fell for
this and chose to study engineering. It has been a struggle
all these years competing with immigrant engineers. The
steady progression technological knowledge over the years made it possible for powerful big companies to hire generation
after generation of foreign educated technical workers who
had skipped learning some of the slow advance of technology to replace middle aged American engineers who had entered the field at the beginning and become more expensive.

I have no political party that represents me or the average middle class person. This is why I support Trump.

H-1B KILL IT!

H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

Who needs a middle class? Look how well Latin America has done without one!

I understand being a rural peasant is a stress free existence as long as you don’t really want anything, or make anything of yourself but to lay around eat burritos and take naps.

That seems to be the only attack FReepers have on Ted.

Well, for us older freepers still employed in IT, it's a huge matter.

This issue should be a DEAL BREAKER for any Freeper. Importing third world labor to work at 1/3 the cost of an American, taking that job and giving it to a non-citizen, thereby eviscerating the middle class. What did you think the goal was?
