We do not want any more Indians who do not want to speak like Americans, dress like Americans and be Americans.
Most that I meet and see are Indians in America, not Americans from India like Dinesh D’Souza.

Two things:
  1. They have no privilege or right to be here. This is not their country and they don't make the rules.
  2. The Indian educational system is so corrupt that "advanced degree" means nothing. Cheating and bribery are standard operating procedure in Indian schools. The idea of an honor system or honor court is not part of their universe. They are frauds.

Too bad. Hey, if you want to emigrate from your S****ole, you have other opportunities. But everybody else in your pathetic country is looking to come here too. The backlog is insane. I agree. It is the way it is simply because of the numbers involved. Tough luck.

An “advanced degree from India” is better known in the US as “resume fraud”.

We obviously have too many. Show them the door and lock it behind them.

If only we could send US citizens of our choosing to India in exchange...

Backlog be damned. Can they speak understandable English?

I’m really tired of call center employees who can’t speak understandable English. “I hear you just fine. But I can’t understand the words you’re saying.” Should never happen.

Thanks. Here's some links for anyone interested. Anyone working in the tech field knows that the H-1B Indian "computer whiz kids" are anything but that. You should hear the war stories of incompetent Indians with "advanced" degrees who can not solve a simple CS-101 problem (e.g. "bubble sort").

I am an American, born and raised. There are currently more than 190 countries in the world. Let’s assume that half of those want to send people to the U.S. MX seems to think 2 million is a good number, though they will prob. think 3 mil is the right number as soon as they have 2 in the U.S. If 95 other countries send 2 million each to the U.S., that would make 190 million in addition to the 340 or so we already have. At what point do U.S. people foresee the need to send some people out? Who leaves? Political U.S. enemies or illegal immigrants?

Fine, but we have enough unemployed native-born engineers as it is already. Let them wait.

If they are so smart, so well educated, and so productive, why does India make no attempt to keep them in their home country?

By the way, anyone who thinks Asian Indians are pro-business or pro-Republican needs to think again.

80% of Indian-American citizens voted to reelect Obama in 2012.

After a quick scan of 2016 voting, it looks like Hillary Clinton got close to 80% of the Asian Indian vote, too.

Then the USA needs to revamp its entire immigration system - make it points based rather than a lottery it is right now

Right now it is the worst of all options - instead of getting "Americans from India", you get the "Indians in America"

Re: “Academic dishonesty in Indian medical colleges”

Ouch.

Thanks for the update, Governor.

Both my G.P. and my dentist are Asian Indians, although they do seem to be qualified.

I am in a Medicare HMO obviously. Not one doctor on their Dermatology staff has a Western European name.

By the way - I will guess that most Freepers are not aware that the Immigration Act of 1965 places no quota on the number of foreign MDs who can be admitted into the USA.

Really? You see (hear) Indians in the US not speaking English?
