Not the worst idea, maybe even a good idea, going to be executed horribly, for all the wrong reasons, and will only serve the purpose of lining the pockets of some people and forcing allegiance to the regime.
The US will lose its programming edge over the rest of the world but yeah the HB1 visa program was designed to exploit people. This won't fix it though.
The proper thing to do would be to fix the program to force median or above wage pay and limit visas for saturated positions.
As an unemployed American programmer I am insulted. This idea that the talent doesn’t exist here has been a lie by corporations to keep IT wages lower.
Fr. America puts a lot of talented students each year and is hugely tech talented. If s company can't find someone for a tech job it's cuz they arent paying a fair wage or have their head so far up their ass almost no real candidate would match their requirements
its the fair wage, that company dont want to pay to citizens.
Exactly so fuck em
Exactly so fuck em
Louisiana?
This is already a thing . Raising that wage wouldn't be bad though.
Corporations would never lie on a form. If they're putting in a bunch of unpaid overtime or not being given the same benefits they're still being underpaid.
As is typical for Trump. Even if he identifies a problem correctly he's incapable of coming up with a good solution.
The large companies will offshore the work, the smaller companies that can't afford to "buy" an exception, will just close down.
A lot of these visas are for medical staff ; they can't just be replaced by some guy who did a 6 week coding camp.
I saw somewhere that the younger generation that just graduated is having a tough time finding IT jobs.
I just hope companies don't just keep it down-sized and continue to not hire junior IT workers
i heard cs majors had a tough time for like 10+years, biotech is the same, because these companies that do research also have H1B VISA as part of "do you need it in the applications" and then theres the side where they also preferentially hire woman too, as it shows they hold the majority of bio major in the states, and are more succesful in bio-health and research than thier male counterparts. I also witness labs in my university were mostly women too, minus the fact that one of the managers was pervy and only liked women.
