immigration is something i didn't really think all that much about, i knew the h1b thing was a problem but i had no idea how bad it really was. and comparing to complaints from canadians who have had a massive influx of foreigners, many of them indian, i'm extremely skeptical of the h1b program and think it should be scrapped entirely. we need to figure out that the hell is going on. a lot of the people who are ok with indian immigration or who function as model minorities are select people and there weren't that many of them but the amount of h1bs being approved means there cant possible be good quality control meaning we won't actually be getting india's best. it's not just the competition for work, i wonder how this will affect hiring going forward long term if these immigrants hire clannishly and i would worry about how it could affect male/female relations if the demographics skew towards an outsized portion of young, single males.
