I direct your attention to this article as proof of what I am saying.
I didn't mean to imply that regulations was the entire reason for the rise in H-1B visas, just that it plays a huge role. Unions are another factor in play as well.
The reason is that foreign workers are not protected under the NLRB because they are not citizens. In addition, foreign workers cannot be unionized either. In addition they do not have to pay for social security, unemployment, and my guess is they do not have to pay for their healthcare wither. What a savings. Is it a wonder why companies want them? The bigger wonder is why more have not taken advantage of them. Perhaps you think I was defending the H-1B visa program, but nothing could be further from the truth.
While I would have had no objection to you saying I was incorrect or even inconclusive, I resent the fact of you calling me a liar. I have never made any of my communications with you a personal attack. You say you are a Christian conservative yet you employ the tactics of an agnostic liberal. That is get personal with the person you disagree with by attacking them, calling them names, and impugning their character.
Not exactly...on this topic, as on one or two others, say, illegal immigration, if a poster on FR quacks like a liberal on standard talking points, Imma launch nukes first and ask questions later.
That being said, your article which purports to support your cause, in fact supports the impression that you are a shill.
The supposed threat of unionizing of factory employees at Tesla, in no way justifies the flood of H1Bs.
H1-Bs are not used in factory labor anyway, but in software; the H1-B phenomenon started around 2001, and was a flood by 2005, long before Tesla's recent factory, and even the union factory rate is less than the typical H1-B software salary.
Here's a piece of advise: When you're in a hole, stop digging.
Stop throwing worse arguments after bad, please...
