I think you’re unfortunately correct.

Just take the issue at hand. Even if Trump decides to go for H1B reform, he’s going to have to expend political capital and time to get it through Congress. Perhaps a lot of both.

Let’s put to one side just what an ordeal (completely justified, IMO) like mass deportation will require.

Too much to do, too little time, too many countervailing forces, some deep within the MAGA coalition.

Following your logic - why is India not a tech power?

Did anyone have a problem with Bush in 1990 then Jr in 2004?

When superfans are embracing Bush family policies, that's a bad sign for those that voted for Trump to burn shite down.

Because all the good ones come to the United States and the mid ones work at Tata for US companies who rather outsource than sponsor.

Time for a "living wage", amiright?

No.

It’s time to not import workers into sectors that are hemorrhaging 25k employees a month simply to lower labor costs for Elon and other employers.

That’s not in any way beneficial for anyone but Elon and the staffing headhunters in India.

Well also understand that we’re not talking about good as much as cheap being the prevailing motivation for tech industry H1B utilization.

A lot of what I think the tech captains of industry want smells like another NAFTA where we screw a generation of people because how we mentored their training path will end up being gone by the time they enter the workforce in a few decades.

That’s exactly what this is.

NAFTA killed the auto industry as a viable source of middle class jobs and set the Midwest back 20 years economically, this if left to fester and metastasize will gut tech for zero benefit to the majority of Americans while people clap for reasons they can’t even logically explain.

As always, ask yourself, "If the other side did this would it be ok?"

I suspect the people on here that are cheering this on because of Trump/ Elon, and Vivek would be shitting their pants right now.

The Indian brain drain...
quote:


The US continues to be a major attractor for Indian talent. As of 2023, it is estimated that over 1 million scientists and engineers of Indian origin are now in the US, representing a significant uptick in the last five years.

Economic Impact: India spends a vast sum on higher education. The irony is that after spending such significant amounts, many of its best and brightest seek opportunities abroad. This represents not just a loss of talent but also a financial drain and burden of the exchequer.

Just because someone voted for him doesn't mean they agree with everything thing he does.

They have over 1.4 billion people.
1% is 140 million people.
0.1% is 14 million people.
The US is roughly 3x the size of India. If India can't figure out how to turn that nation into a paradise, with the top 0.1% of its population, then the problem is India, not an exit of people from India.

H1bs started in 1991, if cap was given out every year plus some, you're talking less thna 3 million over 33 years.


You realize the government grants 2x-3x of the “cap” every year right?


We’ve been talking about how shite our economy has been the whole biden administration, meanwhile over 650k h1bs have been granted in the past 4 years.


And another 135k are coming in 2025.


Did you know that?
