H-1B system is an anti-American scam

The NY Times reports on the front page:
As young conservatives discuss cost of living as a top concern, the H-1B issue has become a purity test of one’s nationalist bona fides, and by extension, one’s commitment to the America First agenda promoted by conservative figures including Nick Fuentes and Tucker Carlson. ...

As the 2026 midterm elections approach, the H-1B issue has already emerged as a central talking point in some races. In Florida, James Fishback, a 30-year-old investment chief executive running for governor as a Republican, has described the H-1B system as an “anti-American scam.” He vowed to “eliminate” the program, if elected, and fire the H-1B workers currently employed by the state.

I agree that the visa program is an anti-American scam. It is used by the richest companies to replace Americans with Indians.
“‘If there are more jobs for immigrants, then there must be less jobs for natives,’” said Ilya Somin, a professor at George Mason University who focuses on immigration. “It’s a combination, really, of nationalism and economic ignorance. They don’t understand the benefits and gains from the policy.”

Those benefits can include economic growth and innovation that leads to more jobs, including for U.S.-born workers, according to some studies.

Somin is a Russian Jew lawyer who advocates policies to destroy USA, mainly open borders, legalized heroin, and abolishing single-family zoning and nationalism. He literally wants to replace Americans with foreigners. He just gave speeches in Israel and Mexico, but did not advocate them having open borders or abolishing nationalism.

He regularly complains that American voters are too stupid to understand that they are better off working for Indians and living in crowded housing projects.

You might think that the Indians have hot computer skills, but actually they are worse than AI.

Artificial intelligence has gutted entry-level roles in the tech industry that Mishra and his classmates were counting on. Among his 400 classmates at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing, fewer than 25% have secured job offers. ...

Students at engineering colleges in India, China, Dubai, and Kenya are facing a “jobpocalypse” as artificial intelligence replaces humans in entry-level roles. Tasks once assigned to fresh graduates, such as debugging, testing, and routine software maintenance, are now increasingly automated.

Over the last three years, the number of fresh graduates hired by big tech companies globally has declined by more than 50%, according to a report published by SignalFire, a San Francisco-based venture capital firm.
