You are a fool ! It is people like you who keep idiots like Orin Hatch in office. I hope one day a "temporary" worker walks into your workplace and your boss tells you to train them so they can replace you at your job. Then you will have some understanding of what the H1B program turned into. Just like any other "good" government program, it turned into a disaster, Over 500,000 ( conservative estimate ) programmers in this country have lost their jobs to these "imported" workers.
This great program was backed by "both" parties in our government !!!!!!!!!!!! And GW endorsed it as well!!!!!!!! And still endorses it !!! Even after hundreds of thousands of American workers were being pink slipped, they raised the limit on the number of H1B visa`s being issued. Finally, they have reduced the number back to its original estimate. And guess what? Companies are crying about it !! And lobbying to have the numbers raised again !! The fact that President Bush is in favor of basically the same program for Mexican migrant workers should be a big siren going off in your head !!! But with your head so deeply planted up GW`s butt, I guess you can`t here it!
Do you know how many people with expired H1B visa`s are currently in this country? When you find out, tell our government because they haven`t a clue. And yes, I have voiced my opinion to my government representatives on this issue in many ways. Problem is , unless you have truck loads of cash with you, they don`t listen. Out of all the emails and letters I have sent, and all the calls I have made, it did nothing to change the problem. After this coming election is over, I guarantee you, the numbers will be raised again ( definitely will happen if GW wins ). Voting for people who have an "R" next to their name, does not always mean they have the best interest of the country in their hearts. Something you have yet to understand.

To: Peace will be here soon
Well I see two things for you to do if this situation continues; Stay home and whine or open your veins.
Either option you take is okay by me.
