Re: H1-B friends
They pay taxes because now they are here within the imaginary lines and even if they don't get Social security, etc they are still benefitting from being here where they have all the other niceties of being here.
Re: citizens don't start paying until 18.
Their parents paid for them.
Re: California
Still part of a larger imaginary piece where everyone contribute.
You're stuck thinking in terms of just $. And no one is saying no one should be able to come here. You simply asked why do people think negatively about H1-B and I explained it to you. What company wouldn't hire workers that cost them significantly less and can't easily leave over someone local, and hence the position against. It's not difficult.
- kelnos 10y ago>> Re: citizens don't start paying until 18. > Their parents paid for them. Quite the opposite. Their parents got a tax deduction simply because their children exist. >> Re: California > Still part of a larger imaginary piece where everyone contribute. Exactly! Just as the entire world is part of a still larger imaginary piece! Borders are just squiggly lines drawn on a map. I have more in common with an engineering student in India than with most people in middle America: socially, culturally, etc. > You're stuck thinking in terms of just $. I was replying to a post of yours wherein you were making an argument about solely $.
- YooLi 10y agoNegative. You can very easily go back to my posts and see where I explicitly say $ + other and mention the H1-Bs benefiting by being here even if they don't qualify for SS. Trying to frame what I said that way is just disingenuous. Parents absolutely pay into the system when they have children even if they get a federal tax credit. The extra food they buy is more sales tax, etc. just think about it.
