Except H1B, which ain't going anywhere and is entirely the fault of the people who want slaves rather than laborers as employees. Some H1B visas aren't that arrangement, but there is always the implications of being able to lose everything. As opposed to regular Americans, who will just lose most things if they disobey.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Fuck the Cato Institute
That's just what a pinko commie organization like checks notes the CATO Institute would say.
The article looked at five years, and even their numbers show most of the job growth going to non-native born citizens. If you look only at 2024, barely any jobs we're created and all of them went to non native born, native citizens actually lost a few jobs last year.
That isn't really a problem on it's own, but it has allowed large corporations to avoid increasing wages, even while everyone is experiencing tough inflation. We need strong living wage legislation and then the foreign born workers will no longer be contributing to wage suppression here.
That’s rich coming from CATO. Has anyone told Charles?
Not a single word about how much any of these jobs pay or benefits.
Funny how the libertarians never mentioned this before the election ....
