@elonmusk Where are the “billions” in revenue they will generate for the communities? A one time construction project to leech off the states for 3 years until the hardware is obsolete? Huge scam and not sustainable.

Why would anyone on an ostensibly temporary visa be allowed to get a mortgage at all, let alone a taxpayer-subsidized one?
Robert Sterling@RobertMSterling

During the Biden administration, H-1B visa holders were buying houses with 97-100% financing. 97% would come from the FHA, with the rest coming from state first-time home buyer programs. Zero money down. Thanks to programs that were supposed to be helping low-income American families buy their own homes. FHA loans to non-permanent residents quickly grew to represent 6% of mortgage issuances. The percentage was undoubtedly higher in places like the DFW area, where H-1B visa holders are disproportionately concentrated. I don’t have anything against people in America on H-1B visas. I’ve said it before—and I’ll say it again—that I’ve found many of them to be great people on an individual level, and I wish them all nothing but the best. Individual immigrants—especially those here legally—are not at fault for flawed US immigration policy. But this might be the most radicalizing thing I’ve ever seen. Not only are American workers forced to compete for jobs, they’re also forced to compete in the housing market against people bringing 0-3% of a house’s cost to the closing table, versus the 10-20% most people have to pay. First, companies import mass numbers of H-1B visa holders, largely in "back office" white-collar fields like IT and accounting. This essentially imposes a lower ceiling on domestic wages in these job categories. Next, these workers—who are generally concentrated in certain geographic areas—create more demand for housing (especially in good school districts), driving up home prices and the cost of living. Then, to top it off, they don’t even have to save up money for a down payment. They can close on a $500k house with $0-15k plus a 97% FHA loan. Meanwhile, ordinary American families are forced to come to with $50-100k for the same down payment. I don’t care how you feel about Trump or what your preferred immigration policies are; there’s no defending this. It screws over hard-working American citizens several different ways over, and it’s yet another reason why I will always be glad Trump won and Kamala Harris lost in 2024.

You don’t need to investigate fraud. All the H1-Bs have paperwork. Thier names are right there. Just cancel ALL of them. So the companies out there out the jobs back on the market for Americans. Or would it be too sad if Bezos couldn’t afford any more rocket rides with Katy Perry?

Was there a shortage of doctors? Or already an excess of immigrants? I suppose it depends on where you are talking about. But no. You are not forced to hire more doctors because someone said there is a shortage. Even if that is the case in a few areas. That has nothing to do with importing people to make web interfaces to sell you underwear. Or whatever it is that you buy from Amazon now that they have decimated American retail.

@Aethelleas @trevogre Some facts for you. H1 b visa was paused when they introduced the $100,000 application fees for new h1 b’s. None of the usa citizens filled in the open positions for doctors and Trump was forced to remove the restrictions for the doctors as there was a shortage.

The thing is - "It's only 85,000 H1Bs" will have been taken as the same as "It's really 0 - there is no effect". Until the day that what was actually about 300,000 H1Bs every year from about 2015 (when the H1B Dependents were added) adds up to 5,000,000 H1Bs simply filling up every tech job & growing middle class suburb right in people's faces. And at that point, Congress will continue tweeting "It's only 85,000" or "We're going to Reform the H1B". But just as easily as everyone treated 300,000 like 0 when it was called 85,000 - They won't stop at noticing that the 300,000 NEW H1Bs aren't actually 85,000, and that with RENEWALS there are almost 1,000,000 H1Bs from just India. They will do what I have always said they will do - and have done myself for a decade or so. They will see right past it to "notice" the 5,000,000+ H1B overwhelmingly from just India who are the core of the Great Middle Class Replacement - and who yet somehow continue to hire only other Indians, while going on social media to join Vivek & tell Americans 'There's a new global caste system, and you Americans are at the bottom, LOL'. A certain kind of Unpleasant Logic will Sweep Through The American Populace - and likely even Europe: "You told me it was a few 1,000 - basically 0. But I see a country full of them. And they're only hiring each other. They're taking everything - and given evey incentive. I can't get a fucking job because I follow the rules. They have everything, and follow no rules but their own. So it must be 10,000,000 - and you are a liar - so I want ALL of them out, whoever they are. And I want you out too, Liar Politician - in prison." And it could get a lot nastier from there out. But at least it won't require Mass Deportations.

Where is the evidence that we are going to take those away. That anyone has admitted that the solution to the problem is more than slowing applications and that we need to terminate the current program and remove the product of the last 20 years or however long of abuse and biased hiring practices. I'm not seeing this happening. We need the inverse situation where these people are actively training native born Americans to do their jobs and then getting laid off. Like these corporations did to Americans when they came in.

H1Bs aren't border hoppers whose main avenue for looting the First World is just signing up for Welfare with fake SSNs then avoiding ICE. They depend on visas with masses of government largesse & huge corporate incentives attached. Once you take those away, not many will stay - as few white-collar esp Tech companies are set up to go from resume-fudging & under-the-table payoffs involving un-investigated visa fraud, well beyond that right into openly (re)hiring them as Tech Illegals with no paperwork or visas at all. And anyone who knows H1Bs knows that they aren't brave, they are just nasty. So once they do not have an overwhelming advantage, overwhelming federal privileges, and come under just a little bit of stress, they will completely fold.

But if they still reach the cap. It doesn’t matter how many applications are made. And the conversion for students. I believe those are exempt from the fee. So there are end runs around the new policy. We aren’t done fixing this yet. And we aren’t done rolling back all the old approvals. The people that already have the jobs and already implement racial preferences and have already bought homes and land when they are not citizens. People who are in positions to outsource labor outside the country if they can’t hire the foreigners they want here. The system has and continues to be gamed. The fix is not in yet. This is a bandaid.

@GamingAndPandas H-1B applications have been cut by 87% and l3ss than 50% are being accepted. Employers now have to pay $100,000 per H-1B employee. This is rage click bait. These employers are not gonna pay millions up front to have shitty foreign labor and this administration won't allow it.

Yes. Our corporations are filled with globalists. They are not beholden to their country of origin any lore than then law requires. They want to drive labor standards down because labor is a cost. And they do not care who gets taken advantage. Or what communities they destroy. Any program around labor will be exploited to its limits for the profit of the corporation. That is why when there is any end runs or abuse we should immediately shut them down completely. Because scammers are going to scam if it benefits them.

@trevogre @kori_rotir @StevenEdginton US Corporations are not concerned with jobs though, they want to earn money from every country and they want to hire cheap labour. An H1B worker can't unionize or quit or negotiate easily, so the US corporation sells the myth of the genius immigrant and saves money.

REVEALED: Google CEO Sundar Pichai boasted about calling the prime minister of India to tell him of "our largest ever AI investment outside the US, a $15 billion, one gigawatt plus data center" “The chance to transform a region like that with that kind of investment, it really meant a lot to be able to call the prime minister, who really cares about developing the country.” He made the statement at a Salesforce conference in 2025. Discussing the investment, Pichai recalled how, as a child, he “used to take this train through the south of India” in a town called Visakhapatnam. The audience at the conference cheered upon hearing the town’s name. Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff commented that it “sounded like there's a lot of folks here from India” and asked the audience to “stand up if you're from India”. Dozens rose from their seats applauding. Since 2020, Google and Salesforce alone have accounted for nearly 50,000 H-1B visa approvals.

And nobody would begrudge India this. If India prefers domestic products to supply the Indian market. That’s great. Make India awesome for Indians. And the same for the US. Provide jobs and services for Americans in American with American labor. You should want your money to stay in your country just like Americans should want our money to stay in our country.

@trevogre @kori_rotir @StevenEdginton If an Indian company set up their own data center and sold a product similar to Gemini for enterprise or Google Cloud Platform, that would be a better deal for India because the money stays in the country. When our businesses buy from Google money flows to the USA eventually

Would it server primarily Indian customers? Would those customers be Indian businesses that we outsource all our work to? It’s all connected. H1B is not a conspiracy it is a government program that is abused in a very open way. Just like a program people will strain the limits to get any benefit out of it that they can. It is the give a person an inch and they will take a mile principle.

I am not sure why you would think a DataCenter in India would do anything other than serve primarily Indian or Asian customers? The response lag would be pretty bad if an American user has to use a DataCenter in India. And the funny thing is the same group of people are attacking Vivek R over building DataCenters in the US. So build in the US…that is suspect as that is some H1B conspiracy…build in India and that is suspect because they are investing in India?

What would stop. A bunch of tech companies don’t get their next code push. Companies that aren’t really infrastructure in any way that counts. So give them 3 or 6 months to transition. No new applications and they can do what was done to Americans. They can train Americans to replace them and then go home.

This is misinformation. Overseas apps for H-1B visas are down 90% but there are still hundreds of thousands of applications from people already in the country on F-1, OPT, L1 and other visa types. Trumps 100k fee did NOTHING to reduce the number of H-1B visas in force. We have 750k H-1B visa workers in the U.S. today, up 10k from last year.

You already have classic. So what is the issue? Anything they do it will be a change. So why not add new graphics. I would assume they won’t force people to play whatever new version they put out. Call it whatever you like. Classic remastered. If the game is the same game only with dope graphics I would love to revisit that. The idea of classic with new content. That is weird. The expansions were the new content. So I’m not sure what that would even be. Just new raids?

@trevogre @pcgamer Then what’s the point of classic, it’s so confusing anymore, especially when classic has almost 4 expansions now and they are planing on adding more and updating graphics. It’s not even classic at that point.

Sure. While you are at I don’t allow non citizens include h1-b visa holders to buy homes. They can rent if we allow them to come here and take jobs at all. If you are going to pay lip service to the American dream get to work actually securing it for Americans. Because right now the American dream belongs to Wall Street and the corporations that outsource and import labor.
