You're telling me you can't find one single solitary American to be a rotating intern…for $54k?!
Every time I talk about how we need to end the H1B program, the cheap foreign labor lobby says they're only being used for jobs Americans can't or won't do.
END THE H1B SCAM!

Should you ever have the good fortune of purchasing a home in which to raise children, look for one with a "circle" in the floor plan, around which children can run.
Since Robert Kraft is in the news, this is a good time to remind you what he did.
In 2019, he went twice in two days to a massage parlor in Jupiter, FL.
The first time he got a handjob.
The second time he got a blowjob.
Cops were already suspicious of the place so they had cameras that caught it all.
BUT...
Bob is a billionaire. So he hired the best lawyers money could buy for "high 6 to low 7 figures" and they found a judge who ruled the cameras violated the law and tossed everything out.
Bob walked.
The women did not. They were arrested and charged with prostitution.
So in short.. fuck that guy and his holier than thou moral charade.
Apparently @JobsOhio, the state's economic development corporation for creating jobs for Ohioans, couldn't find an Ohioan for the job of "Director, Corporate Research", so they had to hire an H-1B
Miriam Adelson lives in Tel Aviv, can barely speak English and controls every Republican in Washington like puppets on a string. She is *literally* the person you are describing in this post. And yet you will NEVER have the guts to say her name.
This is Bernard Kerik, the NYC Police Commissioner during 9/11.
He travelled to Israel two weeks prior to the events.
He received a $250,000 unconditional loan from Israeli billionaire Eitan Wertheimer and was paid $236,000 for two years rent from October 2001 by none other than Steve Witkoff, both of which he failed to declare.
Wertheimer was on the Board of Governors for the "Jewish Agency", an organisation which surfaced in FBI files as the employer of Paul Kurzberg.
Kurzberg was one of the "Dancing Israelis" arrested for celebrating with fellow Israeli employees of "Urban Moving Systems", a likely Mossad front.
After being jailed on corruption charges, Kerik was pardoned by President Trump.
What are the chances?

🚨 NOW WE KNOW WHO STOPPED APPLYING FOR H-1Bs WHEN THEY GOT EXPENSIVE.
The employer-by-employer numbers are stunning.
After the $100,000 H-1B fee:
Infosys: 8,886 -> 759 (-91%)
TCS: 5,955 -> 284 (-95%)
HCL: 3,855 -> 387 (-90%)
IBM: 2,855 -> 126 (-96%)
Accenture: 1,324 -> 79 (-94%)
Tech Mahindra: 1,027 -> 43 (-96%)
Wipro: 985 -> 112 (-89%)
And then there’s Cognizant.
Cognizant had 3,752 registrations last year, but no FY2027 figure appears for it in the published table.
That’s notable because 93% of Cognizant’s initial H-1B petitions were consular, meaning the prospective workers were coming from outside the United States.
USCIS itself says companies with consular-heavy pipelines, specifically naming Infosys, TCS, Cognizant and HCL, saw registrations fall by the thousands.
These aren’t small declines.
Several are roughly 90% to 96%.
And many of the biggest drops occurred at companies where the overwhelming majority of initial H-1B petitions involved workers coming from overseas.
Yet the H-1B cap still filled.
So here’s the question I’ve been asking:
If these workers were truly impossible to find in America, why did demand from some of the largest H-1B employers collapse the moment importing them became dramatically more expensive?
https://t.co/Mun9tRhKTA
The H-1B program is no longer a viable way to come to America: higher fees, higher wages, wage ranked lottery, thinner safety nets for spouses and the laid off.
Remote workers used to be the easiest to cut.
Now they may be becoming the hardest.
When you work in an office, there is always someone nearby who can cover, explain, or absorb the slack. When you work remote, that safety net disappears. You either deliver or the gap is obvious. There is no hallway conversation to hide behind and no manager walking by to smooth things over.
The people who last in remote roles are usually the ones who treat the work like it is their own. They decide how to cross the finish line. They manage their time, solve problems without constant check-ins, and keep things moving when no one is watching.
That kind of self-directed reliability is valuable. Companies are starting to notice that the quiet remote people who simply get it done are harder to replace than they first assumed.
The irony is that the same independence that made remote work feel disposable is what is making some of those workers indispensable.
