Thread: DEPORT ALL H-1Bs

When a Sunnyvale tech company laid off the manager and most of his colleagues in its reliability testing group a year and a half ago, the manager said a few employees were spared -- younger, foreign workers on H-1B visas.

The laid-off manager was infuriated that as an American citizen, he wasn't given priority over the H-1B employees. The H-1B visa program allows employers to hire skilled foreign workers when there's a shortage of available American workers.

``The law does not protect American workers at all,'' said Frank, a 45-year-old Chinese-American who was out of work for five months, and who insisted his last name and the name of his former company not be published because he fears repercussions from potential employers. ``It only helps American businesses and technology companies keep their costs low while sacrificing American workforce. That's not right.''

H-1Bs Encourage AGE DISCRIMINATION.
CEO, did you know that AGE DISCRIMINATION is illegal?
Go figure!

Under the Nukes for Mangos Trade Agreement - H-1Bs from India to US will double.
For the first time, the number of H-1B arrivals will exceed Info tech job vacancies, thus shutting out all American applicants, and causing many others to be fired.

You have no right to call for deportation of H-1Bs

Let's deport the half-million ILLEGAL H-1Bs who overstayed their visas and who "forgot to return home." Then vote out the anti-American congressmen and senators (like Hillary) who love H-1Bs.

``I have many executives saying they would love to hire for those positions from here,'' said Chris Merida, manager of public policy for the American Engineering Association. ``But . . . the talent is not here.''

I simply do not believe this! I saw a 60 minutes report about Indians who went to IIT and American employers said they would immediately hire an Indian who had an IIT degree over any American, no matter how qualified the American was, because IIT was considered the BEST of the best. I consider that favortism. We HAVE talent here. Why not use it?

Tata which is now one of the largest and most prestigious firms in India were originally opium dealers.

We saw plenty of people driving TATAs when we were in India in 2004. Popular car.

Hi Richard,
"dealers?" How harsh! They were opium concessionaires!

You weren't kidding. A cursory search revealed over 60,000 websites mentioning Tata's opium history.

A cross between a Mafia don and a Bollywood superstar, Mallya greets passengers of Kingfisher Airlines with a smooth rap on how he is "revolutionizing business and leisure travel", not least by plugging the King Credit Card, a co-branded operation with ICICI bank, which offers "exclusive amenities" and a 24-hour concierge service.
