Illegals should NEVER be allowed to vote, even if granted citizenship.

The way it works is if you cannot find a US citizen with that skill set... then you can hire outside the US to fill a need. The reason you are able to hire Nigerians is because you can't find US citizens with that same area of expertise, training, knowledge, experience, etc... You know this.
Yet you want to get on this board and compare your individual company needs and apply that to the entire US economy and labor market. Disingenuous and you know it. Flawed argument right out of the gate. You are comparing apples to baked chicken.
Your logic is flawed and it sucks.

These kids are in the US, they graduated from US schools, paid full price, and did their due diligence. Why should they be disadvantaged? I dont pick them by race, I pick them by skills. The fact that I have 12 kids from outside the US doesnt mean im cherry picking non citizens, It means that out of the 40+ our department is allocated for, we had 12 from outside the US who graduated from Stanford, MIT, UCLA, etc.

Time for people to melt when they realize they are in the minority on both of these, and almost everything Trump campaigned on.

I travel to Nigeria quite a bit. I deal with a lot of Nigerians both in the US and Nigeria. Many Nigerians in this country are quite well off and many of them have dual citizenships and an extended family support network here in the US. Not sure why you felt compelled to let me know you don't pick them by race when I clearly said skill set.
I think I see the problem here. Evidently you think anyone that wants to control immigration must be some type of racist.

What have the alphabet networks told the truth about in the past 50 years concerning politics?
