I knew this before BJ Clintoon gave away all our stealth and chip tech to China.

We train them and give them access to everything we have and they send it back to their home.

We defiantly need Higher Education reform. What an expensive mess. We are going downhill.

H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

1.  The H-1B Visa Program which all too often enable foreign high-tech workers such as computer programmers, scientists, engineers and other STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) professionals to displace American STEM professionals has sparked outrage among displaced American workers who have the requisite education, abilities and experience, but lost their jobs to H-1B visa holders.  Providing STEM degrees to foreign students floods the pool of foreign professionals who compete with American students who are pursuing STEM degrees and American STEM professionals who are already working in these high-tech fields.

Even American STEM workers who retain their jobs suffer wage suppression.  This coincides with the Strategy articulated to achieve “wage equality” by Alan Greenspan when on April 30, 2009 he testified before a hearing conducted by the Senate Judiciary Committee that was chaired by Senator Chuck Schumer on the topic, “Comprehensive Immigration Reform in 2009, Can We Do It and How?

During his prepared testimony Greenspan stated, in part:

The second bonus (in accelerating the influx of skilled immigrant workers) would address the increasing concentration of income in this country. Greatly expanding our quotas for the highly skilled would lower wage premiums of skilled over lesser skilled. Skill shortages in America exist because we are shielding our skilled labor force from world competition. Quotas have been substituted for the wage pricing mechanism. In the process, we have created a privileged elite whose incomes are being supported at non-competitively high levels by immigration quotas on skilled professionals. Eliminating such restrictions would reduce at least some of our income inequality.

I referenced this hearing in my July 22, 2014 FrontPage Magazine article, “Immigration ‘Reform’: Engineered Destruction of the Middle Class.”

H-1B is socialism desired by corporate welfare queens.
