I guess they figure McCain, obama or Hillary have it wrapped up

But you see, this is EXACTLY what you will get with a WH with Hillary, and possibly even McCain. Lawbreakers will be the VICTIMS -- and the rest of us schmucks wil have to put up with it.

Don't know what people are thinking ...I realy don't.

Where is the link to this comment?

Ha, Ha, Ha.

Unbelievable.

Someone should make an ad out of that statement. With a list of all the laws illegals break, the penalties, and the harm to Americans!

They are not pre legal lawbreaking victims, they are reprehensible illegal law breaking parasites.

Any of you H1B lurkers still hanging around? Illegals are gonna pass you up and get your green cards. It'll be just like a feeding frenzy.

You H1Bs take our jobs
Illegals take your green cards
We lose
You lose
Illegals win. How 'bout that, H1B?

You know how to translate Spanish to Hindi yet?

Message from an H1B holder.

Not all of us take other people's jobs. My job had been advertised for almost a year when I applied. Since then it has been re advertised three times without any qualified applicants.

It is amazing to me you have not all realized the L visa program is much more of a threat than 65,000 H1b's each year. That program is unlimited and any american company who employs people overseas can transfer a staff member stateside after six months working for them. They can apply for green cards without their jobs ever being advertised to see if there are any suitable applicants here in the US.

I pay my taxes, support my family, have my own health insurance and pay all my sons tuition fees in advance. Not sure how much of a threat I am to you?

That's a good idea, every Republican running for Congress could use an ad like that to win.

I think it's great that you do all these things. I also think it's great that you bring expertise and talent we need here to do these jobs that obviously go unfilled, although I still don't see all the facts layed out on what jobs these are, and why Americans don't seem to be filling them.

However, all of this does not an American make. What sort of loyalty to American do you have? What does our America mean to you? Are you supportive of its democracy? Of its republic?

Just "being here" isn't enough to make you a good citizen of these United States. You need to assimilate into our way of life, live by the rules here, value your freedoms that have been given to you through the sacrifices of so many real Americans now and past. Perhaps some of you could serve in the military, or volunteer somewhere in the community?

Too many HB1 visa holders that I see are here for the jobs and that's about it. I question what they really think about America -- what they are going to do to contribute here, other than to work here and make a decent income and boost their quality of life.

I understand your point of view totally. I have lived here now for nine years and in all honesty you are right I am not an American. I never will be even if I ever naturalize, I spent more than thirty years living in a different country.

I do volunteer extensively in my community and much more than I see my fellow American citizens around me. I serve meals at a homeless shelter and act as a hospice volunteer, both of which I enjoy immensely. This does not make me an American either, it simply makes me a caring human being. In that capacity my nationality does not matter, certainly not to those who I have the privilege to assist.

Of course I came here to take a wonderful opportunity for my professional life as anyone would. I work in medical research in a very limited field of expertise. I also came here to try and give my family a better future which I still strongly believe in. My son now gets to spend more time outdoors in wonderful surroundings with a great circle of friends.

On arriving here it was always my intention not to only socialise with other English people. I could do that in England. I live in a very diverse subdivision and that is how I like it.

I am sorry that you feel so anti H1B's. We are not all the same and we do not all work in the same profession. I did what any person would do if an opportunity was presented to them that would give them a better quality of life and the chance to live in another country (assuming they were prepared to leave their prior life and move) and experience everything it has to offer which I plan to do for as long as I can. I love my life here and majority of the people I encounter and enjoy sharing our differences, it is enriching for both sides.
