I find it a bit disingenuous of CEOs like Bezos who are claiming they’re against the travel ban because it’s discriminatory when all they’re really worried about are their H1B (aka slave-wage) workers being able to get here.
#13 Want to bet the majority of his H1B workers are here under expired visas?
Creeps like this do this because they can hire them cheap, don’t have to pay certain Federal Taxes on them. They also talk them into applying for Legal status.
If they leave their employer the process starts all over, so in effect they are forced to remain there until the process is completed.
