  • 10 years of guest workers sure have been good for the U.S. economy.

    Bloomberg reported today:

    "The number of Silicon Valley jobs was down 8,200 in August from this year's high point. Unemployment hadn't rebounded to its highs of this decade after more than 100,000 jobs were lost from 2000 to 2002, and the region doesn't face Wall Street's risk of losing finance jobs."

    So much for Indians "helping the U.S. economy". Funny how before you got here our economy was booming.

  • Times of India

    "Indian chefs welcome but no IT workers, says UK panel

    9 Sep 2008, 1709 hrs IST,PTI

    LONDON: Indian chefs will be allowed to work in Britain's multi-million pound Indian restaurant industry but Indian IT workers are no longer required here, a key government committee on immigration here said on Tuesday."

  • Maybe USA's global companies cause loss of local business and jobs because 3rd world morons CAN'T COMPETE. To use your own phrase COMPETE OR DIE.

  • "Agenda for shared prosperity" == communism. Take the prosperity Americans created and give it away to other lazy countries like India and China.

    Why work or invent a new industry when you can just steal using guest workers and currency manipulation?

  • Yes, I have visited a local hospital - the U.S. healthcare system is falling apart. Thanks guest workers. We pay you and you don't do the job. How much money from the USA do you send home every month?

  • well said..cant agree with u more

  • med costs are from for-profit insurance companies in the states. uk, canada, france and other countries have free health care and their economies are not dependent on cheap imported labor.

  • Ever Visited local hospital.....

    Kill H1B and fire all the doctors from Asia and Europe who are cheap(300k yearly)..

    Then see how your Medical costs go up with American doctors who then will earn(700k yearly) those Medical costs with which America is already struggling right now.

  • Goggle:

    Tancredo H1b

    He has bills in congress to kill the H1B
