Now maybe it won’t take me 8 months to find another software engineering job at age 61 despite a stellar resume’.

“A company should have tp prove there are no US citizens that cannot take or do the job.”

That is already the law. No one prosecutes violations.

Let’s stop the outsourcing of customer service to India also!! Can’t understand the reps and are no help a lot of times. Plus they have our information which I don’t like.

See post #8. That graphic gets spammed all over FR from the same poster several times a day, every day. I just scroll past anything by that poster.

Trump needs to do the same with those offshoring jobs. Many of the jobs being lost to AI are actually just being off-shored.

New H-1B Visa Crackdown Is Already Positively Reshaping the US Jobs Market

Fixed.

Far past time to stop this job-stealing program that Trump himself has said is corrupt and abused:

"I remain totally committed to ending widespread rampant H-1b abuse..I will end forever the use of H-1b as a cheap labor program"

-- President Trump, 2016

“We may need to think about some kind of tariff or fee or unfavorable tax treatment for offshoring services.”

i’ve always believed that a Federal head tax should be levied on every service worker in a foreign country who provides service to USA citizens via voice, chat, SMS or email, whether directly employed or subcontracted out ...

With regards to customer “service”...if I get a call from someone I can’t really understand over the phone, I just hang up on them, & I think most of my neighbors do too. And I will do the same even if I DO understand them & it is something I’m against or don’t need or trust.
