But Gene Nelson, an unemployed 55-year-old veteran of the information technology industry, said because of H-1B visas, "We're just not getting a crack at the these jobs."

Nelson holds a doctorate degree in biophysics. His most recent stint of employment, which ended in December, was as a seasonal worker at a winery, where he earned $12 an hour.

Maybe if tells potential employers that he will work for $12 an hour, they will hire him?

Read my tagline.

Man, I don't know who is worse, the Democrats or Republicans, however, these guys are going to kill us all, the Democrats with the politically correct views and lax immigration, or the Republicans in their thirst for cheap labor and lax immigration.

Actually, they won't.
