Why do you conflate illegal immigrants with those who have proven themselves so valuable to our country?

Why don't you advocate for the reform of the H1B visa system to encourage these kinds of leaders while discouraging tech companies from exploiting lower-level Indian employees because they get them cheaper and exploit them with legal leverage?

The Trump administration is on the right track with $100,000 H1 B visas that will encourage retention of very valuable and desperately needed talent while making it uneconomic to continue exploitation of Indians who were cheaper but are contributing little while displacing American jobs.

I have no problem with US companies bringing over superstars and people who have valuable job skills that are really needed and who are actually in short supply. That's why for a long time I proposed a big fee for H1Bs very similar to what he actually did. If the person is truly that valuable, an American company will pay it. $100K over 3 years is frankly, not that much for someone who can add real value. But that is probably going to be enough to price the cheap labor out of the market - which is what we want....no more undercutting American workers' wages and stealing especially entry level jobs from Young Americans.

Between the 750,000 H1b Indians and the further 750,000 Indian illegal aliens in the country, we've got a whole bunch of Indians to ship back. BTW....Indians sure haven't helped themselves by voting overwhelmingly Democrat.

BTW...it was not always so. My best friend's family is Indian though he was born in the US. His dad (now retired) was a surgeon and came over to the US over 50 years ago...back in the days when you had to prove you would never be a burden to society, could speak English, etc etc....ie back when we had a sane and reasonable immigration policy. His whole family is as Conservative as I am. That changed when they started the H1B program and they started bringing over hordes Tech workers. They aligned with Democrats. Earlier Indian legal immigrants had been professionals and people who started businesses. They were pretty Conservative.

Sod off troll.

The US built nukes in the 1940s without dots.

India is still a hellhole today, and is trying to take over the US now that it has ruined its own country.

We don't need an H-1B visa system, immigration should be an organic process. Operation Paperclip was a onetime "thing" (Along with importation of German Marxists in the late 1930s which crippled our culture).

We have plenty of resources internally. "Bright foreign minds" should make their own country great. Why do they want to come here and why do corps have to forgo using internal resources? Its an easy answer but you got browbeating and shilling blinds you. Also, Trump is a non-sequitur, there is another election in 2028 that could flip the ideological direction with the Excutive Branch.
