“generic drugs”

Another thread said the sanctions take effect August 27th.

[unverified]

Available stocks could be air freighted to the USA to beat the tariff increase.

[tumblindice]

Suspend the H1b visa program! American jobs for Americans.

[politicket]

Kick all of the H1-B out - and do it very unceremoniously.

[Frank Drebin]

India will go nowhere but to the bargaining table to make a deal.

[marcusmaximus]

First they off-shored our jobs to India and then they started importing the Indians to our communities to continue the replacement of American engineers and programmers.

[Vaduz]

Yes housing costs would drop fast.

[Languager]

Lots of major universities in the US are dependent on Indian international students. I mean “really” dependent. The universities charge them top dollar to attend, and then use those dollars to fund the rest of the university mission, which would probably not be able to float without the international dollars.

The majority of international students are Indian, used to be Chinese, but now are Indian. So, Pres Trump’s issues with India will likely have very large financial effect on university budgets too.

Everybody in the world likes cheap chit until they are faced with alternative costs and liability. In my opinion and experience all Indian morals are purely subjective. Most people are that way as well but some cultures do have some principle based limits.

[crusty old prospector]

Thanking you very kindly. We will take all actions necessary.

[9YearLurker]

More likely they’ll send over 3x as many.

[spetznaz]

Bad move India.

[Organic Panic]

Cut off the US supply of toilet paper.

[marcusmaximus]

They use toilet paper in India? Color me surprised.

[escapefromboston]

That should be considered a war crime

[9YearLurker]

You wanna fight that, they’ll send 9x as many.

[Allegra]

Oh noes! Are they going to shut down all of those call centers and stop sending their people here on H1B visas?

[central_va]

End all H-1B work visas and student visas from India.

[central_va]

"This significant supply contributes to billions of dollars in savings of profit for the US healthcare system." Makes no difference in the customer price.

Fixed it.

[central_va]

So?

[cowboyusa]

STOP THE INVASION! In fact their should be a 6 year immigration moratorium.
