They care nothing about anything except for shareholders and C level. If there was a button marked "kill 100 babies and 20 nuns for $100,000.00" they would push it all day long.
Unfortunately, this is true. I have seen the effects of offshoring myself and have been affected both by offshoring and hiring in the states people who are willing to work for less, because they are on a visa. Several years ago, I also saw first hand the likes of "American companies" like General Motors purposely send their work to China even when US companies were competitive on quotes. I will never own another GM again. (although the one vehicle that tempts me is the corvette). I'll support Japanese and other foreign companies who at least keep manufacturing here.
This is why as long as democrats are for illegal immigration and keep pushing hard for more work visas, I will never support them. It happens with republicans as well, but on this issue they are the lesser of two evils.
It's unfortunate though that many U.S. corporations in the non-Federal sector continue to game and abuse the system, though there's been a crackdown there as well.
I'm dating an Indian-American woman and her family used to be huge Trump supporters but recently due to his policies they feel slighted and aren't going to vote. 50,000 Indian-Americans attended a Modi/Trump rally in Houston. It was a huge deal. And he has abandoned that electorate completely. It makes no sense...why was he putting so much effort into reaching out to the Indian-American community in the first place?
Yeah anti-immigration people, he had you at 'hello', you guys were already going to vote for him. But you alone won't win it for him this time.
Trump condos, Trump hotels in India. Business, profit, greed. Trump loves Indians because they think alike. He is probably running a loss now because pandemic.
American Citizens of India origin voted like 86 % in favor of Hillary Clinton last time. They will never support Trump even though a majority of them are very conservative at heart. Reason is that in Trump Administration, they feel like second grade citizen. At the end of day they are clubbed together as Indian (whether US Citizen, Green card holder, H1B visa or undocumented)
Only Indian citizens can vote. The other statuses Indians donated money because they feel kinship with his policies. He allowed Modi to visit, when he was previously banned as a genocider. They have probably built him a temple in India.
Both US and Indian IT Firms circumvent the rules to promote outsourcing of jobs.
US companies like IBM will pass on work to IBM India and bring Indian contractors from there on H-1 or L-1.
Indian companies have purchased small companies in USA to win contracts and pass on the work to india.
Then a game is played like Client A Location A get changed to Client B Location B.
Change of visa category while a person is still in USA should be stopped. It overlooks the scruitiny as that person is never called for any interview in front of embassy / consulate. An immigrant enters USA on Dependent / Student visa and then change the category to H1b visa after reaching USA once a consulting firm submit paperwork thru a lawyer.
Thats done for santioned countries like Iran. Every time they go out they have to apply for new visa.
This rule if implemented properly can weed out the "Telugu" Indian Americans who do most of the fraud through middleman companies. I have seen EVC, EVVC, EVVVC models also and they should go after that first.
