America FIRST

B-52 opening up an H1-B rat hole.

Although the H-1B visa is only meant to be used by a U.S. company when there are no American workers with the skill-set needed for the job, critics argue the program is riddled with abuse and fraud, leaving Americans to sometimes train their cheaper, foreign replacements before being fired.

How can anyone still even write or say that? It would be interesting to know all the legislative history of this law, but what is now meant is to allow US employers to use the H-1B program any damned way they choose to use it. It is obviously legal to do so. Otherwise, it would be illegal and lawsuits would have been filed by displaced Americans all over the country.

This is probably one of the most lied about government programs in existence, as the bolded disinformation above seems to have been spread far and wide.

These bastard CEOs have been pushing the fantasy that the H1Bs they hire are the only “highly” qualified workers available. That is crap. Most of the H1Bs I’ve met and worked with could not pass a HS AP coding final exam...without cheating and these underqualified specimens are the ones being hired to replace qualified and experienced Americans. Ship them back to India to a job they’re qualified for...”Hello, my name is Ted and I’m calling from Microsoft Support”.

[Herakles]

Time to list the companies who do this hiring and boycott their products. This is the only thing these thugs understand.

We don’t need them or what they make. They should take their business somewhere outside the US!

What's there to argue about? The entire system is scam and needs to die.
