The longer the Robinsons let your New Xenophobia Troll go on, the worse it’s gonna get for Free Republic.
Why isn’t India a “land of opportunity” ?
Oh, wah. As if she's the only person who's ever been unemployed due to downsizing.
She’s probably a nice, smart woman.
Unfortunately, we can’t permit nice foreigners, corporate traitors, vote-buying Democrats and cheap labor Republicans to create massive unemployment in the USA.
I voted for this!
Americans have American Dreams too.
Why didn’t she get a green card? Why didn’t she become a U.S. citizen?
Why don’t you go home now.
Exactly. Anybody who gets teary-eyed over this foreigner's timely departure back to her home country is anti-American.
My spouse and I and I have been through no less than about 8 “company downsizings” over the past 20 years. We haven’t had a chance to catch up, retirement is looking precarious.
We are USA born and bred. Each break has lasted 1-3 years with low wage jobs in between while looking and advancing knowledge.
As new positions come along the managerial field is full of Sorority Hires - power mad white women who play favorites, in black glasses who could well be witches, from their appearance. Yes, there a few Indian women scattered among them in managerial or team lead roles.
As they burn out and downsize one group or team after another, they advance to the next round of destroying the company from within.
Teams are full of Indians, lower on the totem white women, and white men who do the heavy lifting.
Now AI is threatening, as wages sink lower and lower.
The corporate tech space is crowded with foreigners. LOTS from India, thanks to the Chamber of Commerce H1B scam.
For the most part the Indians are incompetent, arrogant, ignorant, and unpleasant. They lie. VERY few, count on one hand very few, are nice or appreciative.
They do things the Mumbai School of Low Expectations and Low Wage Technical H1B Factory way, without deviating and getting insulted when you suggest they could be wrong. Once you fix their work they put it back to the way they did it. And no one tells them the truth.
We have witnessed Americans having to clean up almost every aspect of their shoddy and sh!tty work.
I have no pity. Go home and Make India Great, If You Can.
We have no more pieces of pie.
Americans are dreamers, too.
Sounds like The Times of India has copied The New York Slimes and become the Slimes of India
Its not the citizens of the US responsibility to employee non-citizens.
Nothing against her but the American Dream is for Americans. We have plenty of unemployed and underemployed Americans who could fill these roles. We never should have had a program that allowed companies to import hordes of cheap labor to undercut Americans’ wages. Indians in particular did not help themselves by being so clannish in hiring only other Indians and they made it very politically easy for Republicans to effectively end the H1B program the way its been by so consistently and overwhelmingly voting Democrat. Neither party wants to import hordes of voters for the other party.
