The country is benefiting my taking in skilled labor from the rest of the world. Unless you're a Native American, you really don't have much grounds to criticize foreigners "taking…

Btw, I'm calling you xenophobic not "it". Unless you want to be an "it".

Are you going to comment on the isolationism part too? Or do you lack a good argument for it?

Why do you feel entitled by the basis of your nationality to be hired when someone better and cheaper is available?

Too bad they're better than you and can work for less.

Find me a few threads ripping on those Canadians stealing American jobs and driving down American wages. Or perhaps a few threads criticizing the TN visa, because American jobs are…

I love the blatant racism of HN. Everyone loves to rip on the H1-B, which is predominantly used by Indians, but no one seems to give a shit about the TN visa. Aren't those Canadian…

This is absurd. Most F1 students pay full tuition in the state and private colleges, whereas Americans are eligible for need base aid. F1 students are effectively subsidizing Ameri…
