H-1B visas must end’: Wife of US citizen shares plight of landing IT jobs

[Meengla]

Chiang Kai Sheks nationalist losers rule Taiwan. They haven't done too badly either.

Small country with a lot of American backing. Try China mainland of 1949 under them.

Yes, that's India's magic sauce otherwise I don't think Indians are particularly smarter or more efficient than Pakistanis. But Indians have managed power politics much better than Pakistanis have and the fruits are there to see. Similarly, the stability and focus under Hasina considerably helped Bangladesh, authoritarian or not.

So - the answer is to "ask/allow" the very people who have been the root cause of the instability itself, who have had a vested interest in promoting that instability, to be the solution ?

What about Pakistan? Will it be on the table? Or on the menu?

The difference between India vs Pakistan is that India believe itself as a superpower and try to act like one. Pakistan has no such delusion. As a result, India got slapped into reality by Trump. As well as by Pakistan in 6:0.

This has nothing to do with anything:

Many years ago, and OLD Marine I knew, and when I say old, he was well into his 80s at that point. We were all standing around talking when another friend, who happens to have a Chinese wife, was showing a book with a number of photos from around the time of the Revolution.

The old Gunny paused, and asked if he could have the book for a bit. Friend says sure. Gunny comes back a couple days later with the book and a near identical photo of that same spot. Only this one was him on a motor grader blading that section of road!

The old Gunny proceeded to share with us that he was part of a group of Marines charged with keeping the road open to allow for the evacuation of Americans while the Nationalist forces were retreating. A couple of days later, the Communist forces controlled that section of road.

@r3alist bro

I am not for a moment suggesting that IND/PAK/BD can catch up with PRC. But all these countries can be better countries than they are today- they can be the sort of countries where a large %age of citizenry (say 90%) can take roti, kapda, makaan, water, sanitation, basic education and healthcare as a given.

We must build our own nations based on what our citizens are capable of and comfortable with; rather tha mindlessly import models either from the West or from China.

So are you against India’s parliamentary style democracy and common law imposed by British. Nothing in it is Indian. India copied everything. Unless India figure out a system that works for its religious and caste system, it will always fail.

Back to the H-1B debate:

Was listening to one of the national talk shows yesterday. Had a segment regarding the H-1B debate. Responses from callers were all over the place. One, which made me extremely skeptical, claimed he was a graduate of MIT, and when recruiting from MIT, he was unable to recruit engineers and mathematicians with the same level of qualifications as those who graduated from Indian schools.

Another claimed American workers didn't pay attention to detail as much as the H-1Bs.

A third was pretty blunt: cost driven hiring. He was able to ire H-1Bs cheaper than an American with identical skills and qualifications.

'The Chinese' were the victorious Communist Party of China against the 'Nationalists' losers of Chiang Kai Shek. If the latter had succeeded then China would probably be just another wanna-be Jeffersonian Democracy with deep inefficiencies and divisions and still much poorer then now.

Chiang is not a Jeffersonian democratic leader. He is just a weak wannabe. Taiwan advanced not because of democracy. But dictatorship for 40 years.

He wasn't even a wannabe. He was a typical Chinese ruler who had little ideology but was cunning in playing faction games.

Not at all. They were implemented in India in stages and were accepted and internalised. If they hadn't been, it ought to have been rejected.

That seems a very likely explanation. And a very valid one. Don't you agree, Saar?

The corporates who run America may have something to say about it.

Of course it is valid. But does that make it right is the real question? Companies are beholden to their shareholders and they will do what they must to protect the bottom line.

He is at best a warlords that existed at the time or anytime between the transition of dynasties.

You have answered your own question:
