Cruz people have been reading Freerepublic and know most here don’t like H1b.
Also, I was on the phone with a Cruz fund raiser and I told him as a retired IT guy that its a myth that we don’t have enough native talent.
So many IT are out of work, college grads can’t get jobs because H1b scabs took them.
Cheap money express depressed wages.
You got to get your message out.
Michelle Malkin’s new book research blows up their excuse, its just BS we are forcing them to stop screwing american STEM workers and new college grads.
Even colleges are getting in on the act. So much for taking care of their own students.

After this major scandal I see The Commission on Presidential Debates has chosen
Wright State University to host the first presidential debate of 2016. Do they know something we don’t.

The key thing from Malkin’s book is that the specific study Cruz cited several years ago as showing that H-1Bs help add additional American jobs to the economy was thoroughly debunked. They got behind-the-scenes records from the author that showed she kept cutting down the length of years she included in her study until she suddenly found a block of time where it looked like U.S. jobs went up at a higher rate than the level of H-1B hiring. If she had included the additional 3 years she originally did, it showed the opposite occurring, U.S. jobs being lost as H-1Bs went up. It was a nonsense study that proved no correlation between hiring H-1Bs and an increase of U.S. hiring.

I do think there is a potential work ethic issue. I have had mixed success with native born co-op college students. The foreign born students here on student visas out-work and out-hustle the native born students almost every time. I said almost every time as I have had 1-2 good younger (18-25) workers, bit many in that age group just don’t want to work and do quality work. Have had better success with older students (35-54).
