high skilled immigrants eh, so the lobbyists from India have gotten to him.
On one hand, I guess he isn't calling backyard goat butchering or drywall installation a high skill.
On the other, aren't there already a slew of programs already in place to allow American companies to hire these graduates?
The problem isn't the lack of visas, the problem is that American companies actually prefer these foreigners over their available American counterparts because they can pay them less and bind them into a sort of indentured servitude status to prevent them from jumping ship to a competitor. A far more effective approach would be to (a)require the companies to pay their foreign workers at least a 10% premium over their American counterparts, (b)give them the same rights to move to different employers and (c)don't limit the number of visas since it would be accomplished by (a) and (b).
This is the way they do it in Japan. It has the dual effect of pushing up wages for the entire industry and encouraging more locals to enter the field since the foreign workers thus hired truly have superior skills and aren't just cheaper than their local counterparts.
no, it’s not the Indians. This is about guys already here from Salvador and Mexico.
just another crazy left wing tard putting putting foreigners ahead of Americans
