H1B is basically a slave in today's terms. Usually companies hires through an agency that represents the H1B worker. They get no benefits as it's usually a temp or contract job. Most H1B workers are working harder than most Americans because they don't want to lose the sponsorship since it's very hard to get a greencard for certain countries the H1B path is a shortcut to cutting the immigration line.
Most Americans would not relocate for nothing but companies can get H1B to go to middle of nowhere in America where the taxes are super low to open a call center or IT work HQ.
It's modern day slavery yet your bosses who hire these H1B workers can't stop smiling.
Too many foreigners. The job market is saturated. And those purple squirrel job descriptions are written with specific candidates or outcomes in mind, i.e. as an excuse to apply for more H1Bs.
and how many purple squirrels are there before they become common place?
sorry, people who complain about purple squirrels arent competitive themselves to get hired for the job
do people think if companies didnt have anyone else to hire then they would scrap the bottom of the barrel for the whiners?
good luck finding a job with a resume saying you got no one else, might as well hire me... btw i want top dollars for minimum skill
if companies wanted to lower labor costs, they csn put up the office overseas then import it back to the us and resell it, passing cost to customers..
it isnt doing poor either, people on CD have a black/white view... meaning if they like their job, economy = great, as soon as they dislike their job then economy is bad because they cant job hop right away

The economy is just very split right now.
The people who are doing well are doing absolutely awesome. The people who aren't doing well, are in absolute dire straights.
There isn't much in between anymore.
The days of get an education and you will be middle class are over. You can do everything, get all the degrees, put in all the effort, do everything they tell you to do and still not get anything for it. It never use to be that way.

because college education has never defined class in the economic sense....
the upper and middle class getting educated does not mean they wouldnt be upper and middle class without the education. they would stay right were they are regardless and learn to do something else
education is a milestone, not a key that "unlocks" a career... people are suppose to move beyond their education and replace it with new things over time
poor people stay poor, college education or not until they make changes that get them out of poverty
why do people blame their lack of success on college degrees and not what they did themselves? that degree didnt give itself away

Because a college degree use to be instant access to good paying jobs and the middle class. That isn't true anymore. Why do you think the past generation stressed getting a college education so much. And yes, it was that easy. Go to college and people where falling over themselves to hire you.
“The unemployment number, as you know, is totally fiction.” -- Donald Trump
It might be real, but it also includes temp, staffing, and underemployed in there plus excludes those unemployed for a certain amount of time. So yeah, Trump's right.
I watched BNN( Business News Network) who had a whole segment of this today. They said ( both US and Canadian TH's) that after Tax Cuts (US) they don't feel like hiking their wages.. But did give FEW those few a onetime bonus' ( nothing more than propaganda promotions) to ONLY long term workers..certainly NOT rank and file workers!! .. meanwhile bought back shares ( which was actually forecasted by Business Leaders ) > which means Padding their pockets!! I heard the termed Cash +++ ) or drowning in Balances on their books!! So guess that "Trickle Down" being suggested isn't working ONCE AGAIN!! SOMUCH for Congressional suggestions by Low Tax Politicians suggestions the "PEOPLE" will blessed with windfalls of $$$$$$ and GDP will go up to 5-6%... LOL, What a Sick Joke!!
The other item was to WATCH for making workers do less hours ( less benefits) .. and yet expect FULL time productivity.. That BIG business will try to holdout on increasing wages> to wait it out..like they have done for decades!!
Is it any wonder the market show such PROFITS?/\ for the TOP folks.. Bonus's++ , meanwhile the workers make ZERO progress>>> yet their COL increases !! Sorry.. But Capitalism without limitations will continue to rape workers and citizens ignored so THEY can profit.. .. Those top draw types don't CARE!!
I believe you are right about it just being for show. However, let's not pretend that by not cutting the taxes that the money would be in our pockets instead.......

No, instead the deficit would be smaller, and there would be more money available for roads, environmental protection and education.
I would much rather have good roads and slightly higher taxes on corporations than high deficits and more corporate profits.
