27. Not Xenophobia
to want qualified Americans, who've bothered to go to school, and get degrees, to get the jobs available, or for our congress to actually put the Americans who pay their salaries first, ahead of the world. In fact, it's downright unpatriotic to do this, to globaize, to keep on adding free-trade agreements and such, making unemployment problems worse.

It's a deeply rooted republican strategy, and anyone who defends it might as well just join up with republicans. If you want a dystopia here in America, then keep heading in this direction. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the answers here are from Indian and Chinese H-B1 visa workers, trying to defend this policy. Each country should work on lifting itself up, through polics. If their "best and brightest," keep abandoning their own country, then their countries will suffer brain drain also.

You Democrats bordering on accepting this horribly abusive toward Americans' policy need to reconsider and not listen to propaganda. It's just another instance of what went on in Wisconsin, of globalization, or free trade, it's all in the same wheelhouse. Screwing labor.
