re: Britain won't, but India will. What a world.

Haga,

The irony of you posting this "idol" is quite hilarious. That is a statue of Lord Hanuman. He is the great protector and healer. Not just from things external but from yourself internally as well.

Perhaps you unwittingly posted him to help you with your internal bitterness.........

The ones who work in IT are around 95% worthless. I have worked with probably close to a hundred of them in my career and only found 2 to be worth their pay.

If they’re truly exceptional, then sure, let them come though like any real immigrant, let them become fully American, cultural and otherwise.

What I’m saying here is that I do think they are capable in a lot of ways but let them stay in India and build up their country instead of coming here and taking jobs away from Americans.

Ok. You don’t want them taking jobs.

But what I am saying is there is no need to disparage hard working Indian Americans in the process.

And if you have a problem with Trump not shutting down the H1B visa program - (whatever his motivation is) - then that is a different story imo.

You keep painting "them" as hard working as a rule. That is presenting facts not in evidence. Many of us point out the exact opposite.

Yes, many of them will "work" 14 hour days composing barely understandable emails, changing project objectives, lying about progress, learning on the job when they were supposed to be experts, etc. for nine months on end. For a job I could do in eight weeks.

Working "hard" is the convenience store variety, not the IT variety for the most part.

No you are just presenting anecdotes.

I can present many anecdotes of the best doctors in the Houston Med Center.

Top scores on exams. Best worded emails in the class.

Every single word of this.

They are mostly pretty bad. I'd much rather give an American the chance to do this before bringing in one of these halfway around the world to do it.

I would like to see it cut at least in half. I don't mind bringing in new people into this country but they have to be worthy and they have to do it the right way. And their men should serve at least 4 years in the Army or Marine Corps. I think that's fair

Would these standards also be applied to US workers working overseas on similar visa programs?

Their culture sucks arse.

I know very little about Indian culture, but showing up at your wedding riding an elephant seems really cool.

I'm quite fine with where I am spiritually thank you very much. And again, frick off.

You may be fine where you are spiritually, but if you are not trusting in what Jesus did to pay for your sins against your creator, you are not fine in God’s eyes.

If you are, then praise God for such a mercy! But if you are not, I urge you to do so today, for we do not know the hour when our souls will be required of us, and as soon as we die, the offer of salvation expires.
