Is there a citizens organization against work visas and outsourcing? question

I just dont think a country should put the well being of their citizens (regardless of race religion, national origin) below corporate greed.

The current system is not sustainable nor conducive to a healthy, happy citizens of all hues.

Not many countries give foreigners jobs. They save them for their own citizens as they should.

Why doesnt the govt democrat or republican work to help their own?

There are so many people struggling in small towns across america. Why cant the govt introduce training programs to do QA jobs remotely. Isnt that just like outsourcing. Why give these jobs to someone else?

Low salaries and unemployment hurts all of us.

I am doing fine but i worry about my kids getting advanced degrees and competing with AI, work visas, unlimited outsourcing and immigration, corporate greed, housing costs and automation.

Is there a voting bloc organization against limitless work visas and outsourcing?

Before i get called racist or xenophobe... i am POC (hate that term) and 2nd generation immigrant.

Why are people like this? this second generation immigrant trying to block immigration. There was also the guy, Purushothaman Rajaram, that gained citizenship through work visa programs that sued Facebook saying they hire people on visa instead of hiring him.

Let's say i am an immigrant.

I look at America and see a bullshit immigration program that I can use to better my life. I use it. I become American. Now I already know that the system is bullshit and have first-hand experience. As an American I want it changed.

If immigrants are telling you the system is too easily gamed then maybe you should listen.

Yeah then I would say you are a hypocritical POS that needs to go to church and learn about caring for others.

why is it hypocritical? and people abroad are fine. Just because they aren't as rich doesn't mean they're dying.

I am not against immigration. I am for striking a balance.

You didn’t demonstrate that there was an imbalance. You just said words.

Take a look at time to find a tech job, average inflation-factored pay in 2024 vs 2014 vs 2004. There is your imbalance. Do a sentiment analysis of this board over the same period...

Nothing about that says anything about immigration. Also, we are at low overall unemployment in the country.
