@kausmickey Lots of Pauline Kaelism going around lately
Yeah, Google CEO Eric Schmidt [worth $8 billion] was in DC, begging for more H-1B visas: the poor guy just can’t get good help. But a new book by Google HR chief Laszlo Bock reveals:
http://www.businessinsider.com/laszlo-bock-on-google-hiring-rules-2015-4#ixzz3WkrpQbbB
“Google receives more than two million job applications … each year, hiring several thousand of those candidates.”
But the political class listens to Eric – that’s where the money is. ‘Everyone agrees’ on that.
The high tech industry has become accustomed to firing tech employees when they reach 35 or so, and replacing them with younger, cheaper H-1Bs, without those annoying families who drain time and benefits from work.

‘Looking broadly at tech, layoff announcements from that sector increased almost 80 percent last year.
That was seriously bucking a trend during a year in which layoff announcements across all industries in the U.S. fell…
These companies are making a choice. They’re deciding that it’s faster and cheaper to chuck people overboard and find new ones than it is to retrain them…
HP’s layoff count has climbed over 120,000 since 2002. It’s an amazing number for a company that remains profitable.
And how’s all that cutting working out? I don’t think anyone would argue HP is anything but still adrift.’
@kausmickey BTW – The best source for in-depth truth on H1-B, [i.e. anti H-1B] is Prof. Norm Matloff’s blog.

@kausmickey @AnnCoulter @ByronYork I fundamentally disagree. Hire US citizens that can do the job, not H1Bs. #americafirst

GoogleCEO Schmidt:”Everyone agrees, in both parties”
Did he then click his heels together?
#HerrSchmidt #ThankWeMuch
@kausmickey @AnnCoulter @ByronYork I am much more I favor of H1-B program than the open souther border program.
@kausmickey Apparently so. Goebbels would be amused at ppl confusing their own homemade propaganda with truth– #NoMoreH1BVisas @Glaivester
@shkarren That’s choosing carbon monoxide poisoning over strangulation by piano wire-outcome is the same @kausmickey @AnnCoulter @ByronYork
