As if we don’t have enough mediocre programmers already.

Yeah we really need to import more people to crap on the streets

[oldbill]

Sooner or later, we will need American engineers and programmers to fix the incompetent Indian workers’ output.

But by then there won’t be any American engineers to fix things.

Maybe those gender studies majors can fix the problems.

So the Greed Lobby is still not satisfied with how many serfs they can import from India and other sub-standard countries. After all, if they wash out at their jobs, the U.S. taxpayers can always supply funds for their welfare payments. That Sen. Lee should be brazen enough to keep pushing this American Worker Replacement Bill shows how corrupt the Senate is. It should be abolished because it no longer serves the citizens of the country, only the corporations.

Wasn’t this supposed to be voted on yesterday?

Durbin wants more likely Democrat recipients - he fears too many Indians will turn Republican after they get here.

Immigration is their scam - it must pain him to see Lee playing his party's game.

(From the article) :" Durbin’s block sends Lee’s business-funded bill back into closed-door negotiations where business lobbyists will keep trying to redesign the nation’s immigration system. "

That's the problem with governmental laws and regulations;
they are inspired and directed by lobbyists and special interests.
The Founding Fathers were inspired by "What is good for America" and unifying the country together.
Today's politicians are controlled by "What's in in for me".

Just cancel it altogether ,most of them are probably Spies for the Chinese anyway

[faithhopecharity]

i have nothing against India but there are so many good American computer and engineering graduates who cannot get jobs that many youngsters shy away from these lines of work (and all the propaganda to get them to study “STEM” shows it, too). Put simply, Indians are (inho) welcome just as soon as “our” American corporations hire all of the capable Americans first.
(We’ve known top honors graduates who could not even get interviews at many of the leading USA firms, which continue to hire more and more people from India and communist China).

[RicocheT]

Why the heck are we pushing our kids, especially girls, to take STEM courses in school if Congress and Pres. Trump want to give graduates from India first picks on these jobs in our America? Write or call your congress critters to protest this giveaway.

I live in Illinois and nothing would make me happier than to wake up tomorrow morning and learn that Dick(head) Durbin passed away peacefully in his sleep overnight.......

One huge sh!t sandwich. No other country does this to their people. Capitalism without Nationalism is suicide.
