AMERICAN CORPORATIONS hire whom they think will be most beneficial to the bottom line. If they hire un-productive workers, the corporation will become uncompetitive with other corporations and go out of business. Capitalism does not care about race or country of origin. Capitalism is all about competition and Survival. If you think the Indians are bad workers, start your own outfit and drive them out of business. If you have the brains to do so.
“How dare people point out that corporations hate straight white men, leave the poor corporations alone!”
“Capitalism does not care about race or country of origin.”
America is more than a mere economy.
We need to not bring in foreign workers, as we have plenty.
I know plenty of H1-B workers, and the ones I know from EY got $60,000-65,000 while EY made much more off them, reselling them as temporary workers to the corporation I work for.
They routinely stayed in apartments or homes in which they roomed together, 4-6 in a place, all sharing the rent, and they stayed in hotels in town the whole time.
The strict purpose is to have cheap foreign workers to compete with local citizens. That is it.
Companies are all in the same boat, in gavingv to pay the new $100,000 fee for any H-1B workers they bring in. The H-1B program was intended for shortages in the U.S. labor pool for specialized skills, not as a device for lowering wages by increasing the supply.
I was informed by an Indian coworker that he and his compatriots paid the hiring manager for their jobs. So, it’s not competence, it’s bribery. This is not something that is normal for Americans who’ve been here for a few generations. However, as I was told, it is normal in India. Don’t give me the “best” worker bull, I know better.
A nation isn't just a collection of corporations. It's a culture with a history and an identity. If some corporations have to sacrifice their bottom line by not bringing in millions of culturally alien and often unassimilable individuals for the sake of cheaper labor, that's a small price to pay to preserve the nation. An Austrian and a Bangladeshi are not interchangeable, even if international corporations may think they are.
