Comment on: Topic 'Claudia's Wednesday Wisdom: The Case of the Disappearing Hiring Manager': e the word "if" is for the purposes of conjecture not assertion. I don't think you're a racist. Was it a harsh thing to say? I guess that depends on what you read and how you read it. I don't think it was disproportinately harsh given your original and subsequent comments. >> Your anti-black speeches and videos that frame me as pushing intolerance to yourself We need to distinguish between issues. The first is the H1-B immigrant worker thing and the other is the stereotyping of people with that age-old "their taking jobs from my friends and family" nonsense. Watch the video and research the history. Enoch Powell's predictions of how the U.K. demographic would emerge as a multicultral one was correct. The bone of contention then lay in whether that is a good thing or not. To my point, his arguments for curtailing immigration -- whether you agree or not -- were lost in his failing to persuade people to his point of view. Rather he chose, like you, to stereotype immigrant workers and play to people's "fears" about losing their jobs and being overrun by a "banana boat" worker. He went for polarizing views not building consensus. Enoch Powell reminds me of the adage: "There's little point in being a visonary if you choose to stick your head up your you-know-what." >> My stance is against the business practices of mass H1-B importing, not against any group of people. I'm sure. I think we can agree then that your choice of allusion was a poor one and we can drop it. >> So getting back to the point, what's your opinion? I stated mine - what's yours? I don't have an opinion on H1-B's per se but I have an opinion about how people should be treated with respect, as people. I think its a shame that companies exploit workers for economic advantage and pervert the system to disadvantage community-based workers to save a buck or two. But you know what, so did Charles Dickens. I do think it sucks that the mattrees I sleep on was made in a prison-industry factory. I do resent my garments being stitched by children in a boiler room in Vietnam. I weep for the disadvantaged youth I see being produced by our schools and for the impoverished workers who have to work three jobs to keep their families off the street. If the underlying sentiment of your commnets is the injustice of at all perhaps we more in agreement than not. @ Jerry Hopefully the above addresses the first of your concerns. >> My understanding was always that an H1b could ONLY be issued when a suitable U.S. worker was not available. That rule has been thrown out the window. And THAT is something that makes me absolutely sick. Who could disagree with you that corruption is a bad thing? How do you answer a cynic you might accuse you of being more concerned for your own economic loss than the well being of the cheap labor that is being exploited to replace you?…; Added by Amitai Givertz at 1:23pm on August 28, 2008
