(310 posts)In my early work environment, I ran into some Libertarian types, some right wing nut jobs, and some Democrats. Generally, I was the person on the most distant left of the group. I was sorta part of the hippy culture, that is especially if it would help me score some babes. You might say I was a pragmatic lefty, and BTW I still am.
I did notice the irony when the Libertarian types were swept up by the activity that they had supported.
I have worked for some big companies and small, influential tech companies and startups. I have had my own experiences doing the entrepreneurial stuff, having brief success and outright failure. I have seen some of the dynamics, working on both coasts and in the central US. I have had professional relationships with a wide variety of techies, and I am telling you that I see excellent engineers being dropped out of their careers in favor of cheap labor coming primarily from India.
We have gotta fight back! The US STEM worker is being mocked, taunted, and smeared by the people and institutions that benefit from this fraud!
