But there are just a few threads just yesterday calling for Indians replacing Americans as it was thought Americans were too stupid and Indians somehow superior to us Crack and Marijuana smoking Americans, and somehow Indians are superior to every other 193 countries in the world.
Short memory here?
My kids are all STEM grads..They don’t use Crack or smoke dope...All have or are working on advanced degrees, and all would say their wages and opportunities have been tamped down due to the influx of cheap foreign labor. This problem actually starts in college—US has allowed UNLIMITED FOREIGN STUDENT VISAS...and then there are internship programs that promote hiring of recent foreign STEM grads over US grads...
We protect steel workers’ jobs, why not IT workers?
Why? Follow the money!!!
There does not appear to be an organized lobby for US families with parents working in technology or students studying technology, nor is there a lobby for recent tech grads or experienced tech workers...Yet not only are there tech titan lobbies, now the Indians both here and in India have formed lobbies, and our elected “representatives” get richer and richer :/
... and the American middle class gets f*cked. Americans fired en-masse and replaced by know-nothing, cheating, lying racist Indians. With Indian body ships controlling a near 100% majority of contractor positions (that’s really the only why to get hired today), and Indian hiring managers controlling full-time direct hire positions, what is a American to do? Shovel shit?
Ageism was always a problem in industry. Now Americans are expected to compete with cheap Indians that might have taken a 6 month online course, live 4 to 6 per room, and get hired due to extreme Indian nepotism and racism. While an American with decades of experience, multiple degrees in the field, and a family gets benched.
