For Indian and Chinese citizens who are facing decades long wait periods for GC, will you support a ban on H1B in exchange for a GC? Are you willing to deny others the opportunity to come to the US in exchange for your own future security and the benefits and certainty a GC provides? Strictly hypothetical question - in an ideal world the solution would be different. But this is a more interesting question. #workvisa #h1b
no i promise no backstab. trust me

Nope, I am not gonna screw over others because it benefits me. About 15% of H1B are talented EU,Canadians and other Asians as well, they shouldnāt be screwed over if it benefits me, they should get to enjoy working in US Tech like the rest of us. P.S : For the same reasons I am against S386 as well. It was will screw over that other 15%ās GCās and in the end circle back to the same issue for Indians in less than 10 years.
You seem like a very genuine and a smart man. Unfortunately there are not a lot of you.
Yes you're a very kind man. These EU Canadian etc that you talked about, won't even remember what GC means, but you'll still be on H1B. But go ahead, be kind
Seems quite unexpected so far. I'm on H1B and an overwhelming majority of the people on H1B I've worked with (and particularly those from the WITCH group) would screw over anyone if they stood to gain. Oh well.. š¤·āāļø. Maybe back stabbing only applies when it comes to one's career. I would have assumed it applied to immigration as well because this can benefit you even more (particularly if you have family). I have only worked in non FANG and the tech organizations were > 60% H1B.

As an Indian, I completely agree with you! These Indian sweatshops should either be banned or put in a different category visa. They screw it up for the rest of us.
1.1M total GCs. Only 140k eb GCs. How do 140k destroy diversity of GC distribution? And what if I told you, currently Indians are not the most GC numbers every year. Whoa! Mind blowing that GC numbers are already f***ing diversity, right?
What is a body shop company? You mean like car repair?
I mentioned this somewhere else too. Indians and anyone who cries about H1B abuse are idiots. They don't understand macro level picture. They only see micro picture. 1. Every H1B needs a wage level. Wage level are set by DoL. 2. USCIS/DHS issues the visa. Both are government agencies. Why doesn't DoL simply increase wage levels? Why USCIS doesn't reject visa if it is fraud. Point is, it is not fraud. They pay the DoL wage level-1. US government controls DoL, USCIS, DHS, courts then how the hell can abuse happen unless US wants it to happen? US is capitalist country. You all enjoyed building America on poor people by paying them minimum but when those poor people got some capitalism benefit you cry H1B abuse? Lol. This is hypocrisy at best! Have you Americans ever thought your corporate lobbying and cheap companies wants cheap labor for the US to be competitive so it happens? All you can do is blame someone who came for better life! There is no fraud or abuse, the US allows it LEGALLY and it BENEFITS the US. The day it doesn't, it will end in a week unanimously lol P.S - I don't support body shop myself but also can't see abuse hypocrisy by Americans as well as Indians on high horses!
Wage level can be forged. Do you know that ICC takes part of the contractorsā salary as commission? Do you know that they filed multiple petitions for the same candidate? When laws have loopholes, you fix them, not make it worse by justifying it
So, who has the government? How can you blame the immigrants and not government? Does the ICC control DoL? Does ICC control USCIS? This is the exact hypocrisy, again you don't understand the point and looking at micro picture. THE US WANTS THIS TO HAPPEN (CORPORATE LOBBY) SO IT HAPPENS. Look at the Macro level! Hypocrisy is saying US is greatest country because of capitalism but when immigrants benefit you cry laws are unfair lol Ford, US Steel, Standard Oil all were made by labor abuse and built America. This country has history of exploiting people to build America, that's how America works!
An interesting question. Close to 40% of people here don't see H1b visa employees to be of any use to US or those on H1b are purely selfish in denying others' opportunities that themselves used to reach the same position. The latter is disturbing to me.
Indians have always hated other Indians more than anything. I actually expected this poll to go at least 70% yes.
Uhh! That's cringe-worthy
The family man in me would say Iād support a ban on H1B if it helps my case with GC. But thatās just wrong. Everyone should have equal opportunities. Working here in the US helped me and my family a lot. I would want the same for everyone. At the same time, I think US is a huge country (sort of mini continent), I donāt see any problems with providing few million green cards to people waiting in the queue.

@bokko: I hate those kinds too, the ones that wont assimilate and spoil it for everyone. Sorry about your experience, just know not all of us share the same viewpoint
