Think mirror. How can we incentivise India to want to keep more of their tech grads.
If there's one thing I know MAGA and DOGE can and wants to collaborate on it's creating a surfeit of good jobs to go round for everyone. Cutting government waste for example doesn't necessarily have to mean immediately saving that money, it can mean paying people it to do economically useful and growth stuff instead of tax-stealing useless shit.
India's colleges are a joke. It's literally bribe the professor to get a better grade.
No, they're barely functional. Some absolute moron a company I used to work for hired some dot Indian with his own business card. He allegedly had 2 doctorate's, 2 masters, 3 bachelor's, and an electrical engineer certification. They all lie about everything. Actual qualified Americans are pushed in front of traffic in favor of subhumans that literally have a shit throwing holiday to celebrate the end of Diwali.
Do you want them running anything more important than a cash register?
Good post.
This isn't the case though, they are used because they're cheap not because they are higher quality and it's been that way since the program's inception.
Not just cheap. They are hamstrung for finding another American job under the terms of the H1B. So they have to suck up whatever managerial incompetence and subhuman treatment they are given. H1Bs are literally indentured servitude, but the indenture never ends unless you go back where you came from.
Agreed, people don't realize how big of an issue this really is and how much more it will grow if not fixed soon.
H-1Bs are supposed to end.
The problem in the case of "never ends" is that it seems to give you a good path to getting a green card, which it should not.
3-6 years is far too long. If there were truly a shortage, the hiring would be for a year at a time with a maximum of one year extension while American laborers are brought in. AND it would be at a salary and a half of the current average for the position, preventing any situation where it could ever be cheaper than hiring American.
Their education is a lie.
Not that it's a whole lot better in the U.S.....just saying.
Probably a lot harder to fraudulently obtain a degree.
Oh they want them, they just want them to import some American money so they send them abroad to get some. It is an ages old scheme.
It's like Elon and Vivek are willfully pushing a false narrative as to what MAGA is, and are intentionally being obtuse and obscure about what they are talking about, ignoring ALL criticism and slandering the MAGA majority. Do they REALLY think MAGA is a cult who will eat up whatever shit they feed us without questions and being held to task? Are technofascists attempting a coup of the movement at large? H1B has been on the MAGA radar for years, and we know what it is about, and more importantly, how severely it is abused.
Because we can't read minds, we can only judge by their actions and intentions. For Musk to demonetize Lara Loomer, threaten anyone who would dare challenge his position as if he could unleash digital hounds of Hell on us, and then launch insults the likes of which we only ever see from Libs?
I'm convinced this is NOT a psyop.
The only reason Musk contributed BIGLY in the election was that he thought he could buy Trump as a means of attaining more wealth. Eff him and his greedy ass.
Or did they know how we felt and wanted to get this aired out into the public domain in a disruptive, engaging manner? Art of War is all about knowing and deceiving your enemy. I won’t be surprised if this all turns out to be a short-term tactic to help accomplish a long-term strategy.
Ah, you mentioned Art of War. I really recommend frens to at least skim through the 36 stratagems and envision these strategies, in an effort to remain calm.
A few years ago Trump kept asking us to take the vaccine and at one point people booed. Why would he do such a thing in the first place, knowing deep down people have already died from it? Optics aside, is it possible that he is testing us, as People, that we can take care of ourselves as they dismantle the pyramid structure and bring in the new world? That would also mean, “you’re not supposed to blindly trust me, you’re supposed to only trust God.”
Great point on the vaccine comment from Trump. That was a pretty similar event to what’s going on now. He said something a massive part of his base disagreed with and we fought and pushed on. I foresee something very similar going on here.
Also, will definitely read those 36 stratagems!
Perhaps. I'm very open to the idea that Trump and his inner circle triangulating Musk off the MAGA base in order to expose that his self-interest on H-1B is in direct opposition to the interest of American citizens. It wouldn't be the first time Trump has played one party off another to expose the truth.
It’s either what you said or Trump using Elon to thrust this discussion into the public domain without putting heat on him or his admin. Who knows, regardless I’m not worried.
Agreed.
Thank you for all your work. It made it clear to me that the whole thing is a scam to make money for Indians - and perhaps others. And of course Vivek and Musk are all for it. Perhaps that's how they got in.
I'm really noticing how many Indians who are here are running for some form of office. I guess we Americans are too damn lazy to do all the minor, local gov things so they jump in.
I don't think that people who just got here should be involved in changing our way of life until they have lived it for a while.
You're very welcome, Hope4. Keep 'em flying!

Fake pilots: nose-first landing unravels full-blown scandal
India's fake pilot scandal began unravelling when a female captain landed her packed airliner (Airbus A320) on the nose instead of the rear wheels as she touched down in the holiday hotspot of Goa.
Parminder Kaur Gulati, flying for the fastest-growing airline in the booming Indian sector, IndiGo, was investigated for the dangerous error in January and was found with falsified qualifications. She has since been fired and arrested.
The case set alarm bells ringing for passengers, anxious about the idea of a semi-trained fraud being responsible for their lives, and for airline bosses, who have been hiring crew at a furious pace in recent years.

It also cast a spotlight on a familiar problem in India, where corruption is widely seen as on the rise: most things, even qualifications for highly skilled jobs, can be bought at a price.
"It's as bad as doctors or surgeons who fake their certificates and put people's lives at risk," says Baijayant Panda, a member of parliament from the eastern state of Orissa.
"But it's not limited to aviation in India. In many fields, you have a lot of fakery going on," the lawmaker, seen as part of a new breed of young Indian politicians, told a debate show on NDTV television last week.
Since the discovery of Gulati, at least five other pilots have been arrested working for low-cost flier SpiceJet, national flag carrier Air India and smaller regional airline MDLR.
India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), which is responsible for pilot examinations and granting licences, has announced it will look into the credentials of 4000 commercial airline pilots.
More arrests are expected.
Amid rising anxiety, attention has focused on a small school in the arid west of the country, the Rajasthan State Flying School, which has been running for the last 10 years.
Two of its alumni, working for SpiceJet, were arrested on Monday.
"A pilot needs to have completed a minimum 200 hours of flying to get a licence. Several of the pilots from there had only completed 50-60 hours," Umesh Mishra, from Rajasthan's anti-corruption bureau, said.
Police built a case against the school and its graduates by checking the logbooks of the instructors responsible for certifying that trainees have completed supervised hours at the controls of a plane.
"We checked those records against the records kept by the air traffic control authorities in Rajasthan and found that some of these flights never took place," Mishra said.
Police began looking into the school after being approached by someone who alleged that they had paid a million rupees ($A22,000) to the chief instructor, who never granted a licence.
The DGCA, which the airlines blame for the licence debacle, has promised a probe into 40 schools around the country "to find out if there are any irregularities in their functioning."
"A special team will be constituted to complete the audit in three months and bring the truth out," DGCA chief E.K. Bharatbhushan promised on Tuesday.
The parliamentarian Panda, who holds flying licences in three countries -- India, South Africa and the United States -- believes the problem is systemic: suffocating red tape provides the opportunity for bribes.
"The DGCA has become a humongous bureaucracy and the red tape involved is phenomenal," he said. "Even genuine pilots, it takes them months and sometimes years to clear the process.
"This incentivises people to go to touts who say 'why go through the genuine process? I'll fix it for you'."
It's a pattern repeated across the country, where bribes are frequently paid for driving licences, passports, ration cards for subsidised food, university degrees or even doctor's certificates.
Last year, the head of the Medical Council of India, which is responsible for certifying medical qualifications, was arrested for allegedly accepting a bribe of 20 million rupees to recognise a medical college.
Ketan Desai, along with two other doctors and a suspected tout, await trial.
T.R. Raghunandan, who set up IPaidABribe.com, an online forum for citizens to vent their frustration about corruption, says that bribes paid for education certificates are part of life in India.
The implication is widely understood by companies and recruitment agencies, who face a difficult task in verifying the qualifications and experience claimed by job candidates.
"Flying schools are meant to be monitored by the DGCA. What is the DGCA doing? They are themselves so corrupt," the retired civil servant said.
