Why this fuss about H1s and why isn't there any political discussion about L and B visas? The answer is there is no organized representation by H1Bs and there is a huge demand for H1Bs in India. The H1B is the most unfair program and designed to exploit the H1B holders. This is the only program that is subject to quota and the only program where the spouse of the visa holder is not allowed to work. The program is designed to make the H1B holder an illegal alien just by losing his job and this fear make the H1B vulnerable for exploitation. The designers of this program knew that the program is unfair and yet more restrictions are added every other day. The media and the politicians know very well that the program benefits US and its businessmen and yet they don't hesitate to demonize the program. They can do it just because the H1Bs provides them the opportunity to treat them as slaves.

As a life long Republican who has taken the Republican's word on policy issues - until this year. I am SHOCKED at the level of manipulation. The Clintons and the Bushes have been doing what can be called nothing but stealing. They are taking our livelihoods and giving them away for big business. The justification is that "Anything that helps big business helps America.". OH MY GOD! The Clintons get $10,000,000 bulk book deals in exchange for these "Free Trade" policies. Right now Bill Clinton is in South America pushing another Free Trade Agreement. And Bush is in the same boat. The only hope I see for our present political system is for me, and other white professional Americans like me, to admit that the old Republican guard and the old Democratic guard are corrupt. We need to admit that a half black man named Obama brings the hope that we need. And he's tough enough to make it happen. Please join me in making small contributions to this cause. I'm just tired of watching my country go down hill. And PLEASE, don't take the attacks for granted. Obama's father was goat herder. He's from poverty, and made it big. He can't help it if his ex-preacher said contraversial things when Obama was not in church! His ex-preacher is an idiot - SO WHAT! Obama's no elitist, and he's no racist - for goodness sake he's part white! Those are CLINTON LIES. Please break free from "Bigotry in America" and stand up for what is right - for your own sake.
