"I wonder how many of these jobs will be taken by American's and how many will be taken by foreigners with the H-1B guest worker visa's."
I know a very talented Canadian programmer who is here on an H1B. His employer is damn lucky to have him - all their other good engineers have left. He can't, because he's on an H1B, so he'd have to find another new sponsor, too.
Sad because he's the kind of person we WANT coming here - if anyone should get legal residency standing it should be a guy like him, not an illegal alien fruit-picker.
What we need is our schools to quit letting the unions rule the day, they need to get busy teaching our kids for these jobs.
Union control is ruining our children's education. We have two absolute monopolies in the USA. The military puts out the best of the best. Our schools, sadly, are the worst of the worst in the industrialized nations.
It's an outrage!
