Indians slam MAGA 'war' over H-1B skilled-worker visas as 'racist'

I really don't care what they think. I have seen Americans lose their jobs to these H-1B visa holders. That's systemic abuse, full-stop. It's not about a labor shortage; it's about corporate America manipulating the labor market to their advantage.

We had like, tech layoffs, 264,220 in 2023 to 150,034 in 2024.<p>I know a few tech people who are still unemployed after numerous layoffs.<p>And, I also know of entire departments that are all H1B at multiple fortune 500 companies, so don&#x27;t tell me they couldn&#x27;t find 1 US citizen.<p>So to me, it seems like we have some H1B fraud going on.

This article is in stark contrast to how the same issue was treated when it was about Kashmir.

Analysts say the change could bring about a profound transformation of Kashmir’s population that would exacerbate unrest there.</i><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.washingtonpost.com&#x2F;world&#x2F;2019&#x2F;08&#x2F;08&#x2F;kashmirs-new-status-could-bring-demographic-change-drawing-comparisons-west-bank&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.washingtonpost.com&#x2F;world&#x2F;2019&#x2F;08&#x2F;08&#x2F;kashmirs-new...</a>
