Leave it to a brainy Indian to come up with the solution to the growing ranks of America's unemployed: Relocation. Wadhwa, a fellow at the Labor and Worklife Program at Harvard Law School has published a proposal that is gathering notice with several Representatives in Congress. Wadhwa's plan would focus first on the foreclosure of homes. According to him "unemployed Americans about to lose their homes would be identified by the DHS. The IRS would confiscate homes and other properties left behind by unemployed Americans and the value applied to future taxes owed. Once this process starts, the unemployed would be sent to FEMA relocation centers where they would live and receive valuable training in non-technical fields such as food preparation and warehouse work. The homes coming into possession of the government would be turned over to newly admitted H-1B's who would use the homes to establish a base from which to revitalize the American economy. Since Indians have proven themselves to be the technology leaders of our economy, including the current boom in Silicon Valley, the "homes for H-1B's" swap would be the "win win" situation to reverse the poor economy caused by the lowering of education standards in Americans who cannot compete with the superior education of the Indian marketplace, now credited with the being the chief production center for software used in the United States." Other proposals include allowing some FEMA residents to have travel rights enabling them to work at neighboring farms and quarries.

You have got to be kidding me?! So much for your global universities like Harvard and Duke. Yep ... that dude is on the payroll at Duke University.

I've got a better idea, let's relocate the illegals back to their home countries and the H-1B's back to India. That way Americans could have their jobs back and keep their homes. Easy peasy. Far better than making inmates out of people whose only crime was losing their home to foreclosure.

This proposal has several major flaws. Among them, the properties confiscated and turned over to the IRS. Bet the banks that hold the mortgages would have a problem with that.

The H-1B visa is temporary. Why would they be able to take possession of American homes?

The kicker for me would be allowing FEMA prisoners to be on work-release in order to work on farms. Doesn't this guy know all those jobs are taken by illegals?

Has anyone forwarded this to Lou Dobbs or Glen Beck?

This travesty must be exposed, and since the incompetants in media won't do it, we must rely on these two pioneers.

This is some kind of joke, right?

DONE! And to Hannity, Rush, and O'Reilly too

Maybe the border war between Pakistan and India will escalate into a Nuclear one, that would solve the H1b problem
