I like living here and being an American!
To you country doesn't seem to matter.
So why don't you move to Kashmir, India -- same-o same-o all is equal. It is just like the US of A according to your logic. You would only be missing the security factor and you might experience some inconveniences in daily life.
This is also something that you won’t understand but I’ll say it perhaps for others:
Before 9-11 I really didn’t care about the H1-B program. Post 9-11 I’ve talked to my coworkers and everyone says about the same thing – that if things get bad here they’re leaving – there is no committment to America or our ideals of freedom and justice. They like living here but they don’t want to pay to keep it that way.
So the generations of American who have made this country the truly great if you talk to ab H1-B they could care less they are tech mercenaries only – not Americans – "no inconveniences please". This is an important point they have no allegiance to the US of A!
I like living here and being an American! To you country doesn't seem to matterI have been reading some of your posts and I agree. I do think you may be fighting a loosing battle.
You are arguing from a standpoint of loving your country and its people and wanting it to continue. Some are arguing from a standpoint of filling their pockets - with no allegiance to this country. This is a frightening thing - but I do believe some people are espousing this.
Now do I believe those people have any real core beliefs - no. I think they believe they sound so 'cutting edge', 'worldly' 'global', etc. when they spout that but since many Americans today have never had to make a sacrifice of any kind to keep this country going - they just can't imagine what it took to build it and keep it.
