“Ted Cruz seems to be pro H1-B. Deal breaker. Sorry, I know he’s the only adult in the room.”

Is it possible to look at H1-Bs in a slightly different light? If companies are claiming they can’t find educated or talented American capital and need foreign capital, we call BS...right? It could very well be BS, no argument about that.

HOwever, those same companies are in the position to up and move their jobs overseas to where they think the cheaper talent is. So, you have to ask yourself, in the long term, do you want to consider the H1-B issue more devastating than companies moving their ops to foreign soil? It’s worth a discussion.

Just my two cents and yes, us FReepers are mostly all on the same side when it comes to being pro-America.

It is very much BS, and you are right there isn’t an argument about that.

Let them move. Where are they going to go? Europe? Canada, maybe. Africa. Right. Asia, anywhere in Asia, no way.

Anybody who’s spent anytime managing H1-Bs knows they don’t have the skills they are advertising. They put exit packages being delivered upon the condition you transfer your skill to the unqualified . . . professional . . . that’s been hired to replace you.

It would be EASY to disincentivize this sort of behavior and INCENTIVIZE hire US college graduated citizens first.

They just don’t do that, because the idea here is to create a class of immigrants wired to vote LEFT for the next 8 generations, very much like the Jews, or Blacks.

It’s that simple. Amnesty is suicide. H1-Bs are legalized theft.

Many managers are extremely uncomfortable with having their team out of physical view.

Moving the entire operation to another country would entail moving most of the management to places they'd rather not live, and have them directly report to people with very little ability to check behind them.
