I prefer a little context here (and nothing against what you said).
This is a Red State article by Repair Man Jack that cites Cruz’ chief error in the H1B topic sourced by Patrick Thibodeau who wrote for Computerworld on the day Cruz announced his candidacy (March 23, 2015) which cited the 2013 H1B amendment stuff. A long trail of connections, isn’t it
Besides being a Computerworld author he is evidently an ardent opponent of H1Bs at all, especially with regard to anything IT. He has a twitter feed here.
I guess if I had the time, I could dig back through all the arguments and threads here at FR about Walker and what some say, flip flops on immigration (illegal) which were as equally or better sourced of two years ago, too. But I’ve said here on the Walker Chronicles Threads, I’m not going to trash him. I hear his position now and I’ll accept that and not trash him. I’d like to think that Cruz would get the same courtesy.
I am past that; I’d hope we here would be past it too, especially for the two candidates I see that are really conservative (Walker and Cruz) and who would most likely follow the will of the people, unlike so,so many Dem and Rep Presidents past have not.
While I am for Cruz, I think that bashing Walker or Cruz is wrong because they are the only ones to me worth a vote from me. I prefer to let them get out there, talk to the people and get the recognition and support they deserve so that each (or their supporters) won’t consume the other and let this nomination fall to Jeb Bush, or Rubio, or the others we KNOW won’t be on our side.
BTTT!
I agree with you regarding both Cruz and Walker. I lived and worked in Wisconsin (contractor to state governemnt, no less!), and I know what Walker put up with and his ability to keep his cool and move the ball forward. He’s the Bill Parcell’s Giants, Cruz is the Mike Martz (1999) Rams.
I am in IT, and the abuses of the H1B program are LEGION and flagrant. The businesses do not use it honestly, but use it only to get low cost labor, which is NOT what it was supposed to do.
