Everywhere I look the downturn is because of “outsourcing”, “India taking our jobs!!”, “cheap overseas labor” and never, never ever porky’s fault. It’s the dirty immigrant labor, not the guys who talk about having “properties”. I’ve always seen this shit floating around in white collar jobs as long as I’ve been working but it’s been really amped up the last few weeks. I am not surprised that people are just this racist on their own but at least some of it feels very manufactured.
An H-1B visa is a kind of temporary work visa employers can apply for, it is for "specialized" immigrant workers. Generally math/engineering type stuff.
Chuds hate it because racism and "they took our jerbs," when it should be opposed because it crates a category of laborer that are even more precariously under the thumb of their employer (their immigration status is essentially determined by their employer's ability to extract further surplus from them.)
but like 99% of H1B1 applications are for entry level jobs in my industry lmao
Well, that's the language they use. Aside from that, entry level jobs can also be specialized. Here Pharmacy Technicians are entry level jobs, requiring no prior education and seen as the beginning of the Pharmacist's career path (in conjunction with pharmacology school) however you would say they are specialized when compared to other kinds of store clerks.
They are largely just trying to draw a distinction between the coders and engineers they want to hire from migrant agricultural workers etc. they don't want.
Ah. That clears it uo nice. It's amazing that chuds and leftists can both hate the same thing for different reasons but the neolibs will for sure make it happen anyway
