Should the U.S. Be Training Its Competitors?

Submitted by Dave Chapman, Feb 5, 2008 21:19

The purpose of the H1-B visa program is to import Cheap Slave Labor and to replace US ctiizen workers.

Maybe we would be better off giving Green Cards to anyone with a MS in Computer Science, but the current visa system is a monument to corporate criminals and the crooked politicians who help them.

The H1-B visa program is a $20 Billion per year subsidy to high tech companies, and it is destroying the American tech work force.
