Yes. Imagine a school trying to employ a Sanskrit teacher. It is impossible to expect them to pay $130K.

Would love to know how! Our company just move one of our department to Pune because it was hard to get H1Bs. With that I think at least 4 Americans lost their jobs.

"desi consulting shops" might even run fake payrolls to bypass(break) the laws. As someone who has seen them closely, it is common practice for them to pay an employee $110K on paper but $60K in real.

They are already doing it today. That is why HN or DHS has no clue about the extent of abuse. H1B comes with their wives who are on H4. Despite having a great career in India these women can not work. Eventually the stress breaks them

> So you don't need to lie about stay or return. Dual intent does not mean you can tell the visa officer you will request the employer to also sponsor green card. That will most certainly get your visa rejected.

Even a kick-ass ex-Googler is not worth it. Heck, I will divorce my wife if she opens up my house for potential DHS raids. I smell Schadenfreude here ! Jokes apart the boots on the ground regulatory approach increases compliance cost for ev

Why do these bills make so much noise ? Isn't it the case that any senator, congressman can introduce the bill they want ? Shouldn't we take them seriously only after they have passed committee review ? This is probably 4th such b

How can an Indian or Chinese immigrate to USA under the current system? Legally there is simply no way besides marriage. These people who are actually very skilled have a very good history of assimilating in the mainstream and being success

On the long term this will help Indians even more and various US businesses might be willing to outsource even more operations out of USA to India.

What happens when the employers run a fake payroll to pay more money on paper but low in reality ?

Not to mention getting rid of the nonsensical anti-asian bias in the GC process. It is not really fault of Indians and Chinese that they are not trying to enter USA as refugees and instead coming as well educated special skilled individuals

Strikes should not be a feature of free societies. What do we achieve by striking and making it hard for normal Americans to go abut their lives ? Trump and his officials probably laugh at you from their taxpayer funded jets. An Uber or Lyf

> Using your analogy, you might as well blame all US citizens Of course US citizens are responsible for all the actions of their President. You cant brush off your responsibility by claiming you did not vote for him.

This is always obvious to me. I think at this moment Trump's wet dream is that some frustrated person from these 7 nations might do something really stupid that will help him go even harder after Muslims and other minorities. Asians, M

Peter Thiel is right. If there was a religious test then Saudi and Pakistan should have been top. This is move like "hit someone who cant hit back" test. The retrospective nature of the order is what is very very concerning here.

Kudos to Uber and Lyft both here. I had to travel to SFO yday and I managed to find an Uber. Despite protests and all, we need transportation people. I donated money to ACLU.

It is obvious that DHS and all others must obey the law. It is important to note that the people affected here are not just the hijab wearing sharia loving Muslims (as trump might describe them) but also people who helped US army carry out
