idea is the over-issuance of H1B visas to people who COME TO AMERICA and take high tech jobs from Americans who went to college to learn these skills and cannot find work because of it. These are the jobs that we were convinced would be for Americans when they tricked us into passing NAFTA. I certainly hope that least that the Obama administration (I LOVE saying that) will do is to take a REAL close look at H1B visas and MAKE companies at least attempt to hire able bodied and skilled Americans for this work before bringing folks in from India to do it.

OR they need to make college/technical training FREE. If they insist on cramming this "free trade" bullshit down our throats they HAVE to do that.

Otherwise we're screwed and we simply can't compete.
