I'm interested, Shmuel. What immigration laws aren't being enforced? I heard someone else here post the number of visas being made available; are you saying more Indians are getting in than that number allows?
And what labor laws aren't being enforced? Speaking with my capitalist hat on, I suggest that employers ARE paying Indians prevailing rates - for Indians. Naturally they're happy with shorter pay than Americans, and naturally that reduces somewhat the rate Americans can get for the same services. Are there labor laws that require a different outcome? --- Bob Bridges, [email protected], cell 336 382-7313 /* How strange that there was once a time when Americans philosophized hotly, in the passionate assurance that their ideas would have practical consequences! And oddly enough, they did. Now we just shrug and cough up the [tax] money, with the resignation of an old New Yorker facing a mugger. -Joseph Sobran */ -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Seymour J Metz Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2025 18:45 The problem isn't the visas themselves, but the lack of enforcement of immigration and labor laws. If they actually paid prevailing wages then it wouldn't be an issue. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
