Apparently no American in the Ozark Area is capable of managing a convenience store for ~$48k/year according to Founder Ibraheem Kahtoot and President Abdul Quddus.

Thanks for creating good jobs, diversity blessings! For H1Bs, at least.

This is not a secret.

If Americans don't fight this (not on the internet but on the streets and in politics), they are looking at a bleak future for their children. It might be too late already.

I'm glad that guy has me blocked so I can only see his stupid posts when I'm not logged in.

Lol forgot about that. That's one of my 10 ignores for sure.

HOLY SHIT, Elon


Elon hoez mad he didn't get in on the O-1 visa but the H1B?

Elon is right about himself and for himself only; he cannot have a short term and self interested view on this. WTF

If this is a real tweet, it's a bit short sighted. He doesn't exist without America. Someone else would have figured out all his companies at some point.

Electric golf carts have existed for around 50 years I believe. He just scaled up existing tech. Tunnels have been built forever, again borrowed tech. Space X is maybe the only argument he did something unique. Reality is someone would have done it anyway that was natively born in America.

I like Musk, but he's showing his ego here. I know likely 200 engineers that could work for him that are Americans. A few have done award winning work nationally. This is just who I know. He just wants slave labor from poor countries that got educated. Does it work for him, likely yes, but it doesn't work for the citizens you built your companies in. That's a tweet I'd delete. Though I don't know what is real or fake anymore.

The answer is easy: require all H1b salaries to be a minimum of a $500,000 per year.

If the person really is a star, the company will pay it.

If the company is really just trying to shortchange American workers, the person will not be hired.

Done.

Great Thread: Salary breakdown shows the vast number of H1Bs are for lower-middle band job ranges, not the top tier of elite experts.

Patrick Bet-David's H1B worker


Nobody in the State of Florida would do Graphic Design for Valuetainment ... at the price multimillionaire Bet-David wanted to optimally pay.

For the memes:

Trump has said forever that the H1B program is abuse and needs to at the minimum be severely curtailed if not abandoned

He says a lot of things.

Elon is coming around.

Trump should talk specifically about imposing a high wage requirement for H1B visas.

But as usual, Trump does not speak clearly enough.

Sometimes, it's deliberate. Let them stew. Very Torunaga (Shogun, the Book)

It is deliberate. He is a sharp. And ruthless. Imo.

Elon is carpet-banning Twatter users who disagree with him on the H1B issue.

OUR KNIGHT OF FREE SPEECH IN SHINING ARMOR!!!!

Oh Patrick

He's backpedalling after getting a new asshole ripped on Twatter.

This reads like that 90s paper did that I can't find anymore on the interwebs. Interestingly, someone I worked with in biotech sent it to me back in the day.

I think it is because he got bitchslapped by the Trump peeps.

Its about management of people/society, as Edward Bernays, the pioneer and author of modern Propaganda said.
