Why does the Democratic party support H-1b visas?
Advertisements [?]

(re-posted from economy section, this is more a labor issue)

it's wage suppression, plain and simple

Clinton, Edwards and Obama all support raising the H-1b visa cap, from it's already high level

Clinton works with Indian outsourcer TATA, Edwards co-sponsored a huge h-1b increase during the tech crash

it's a sellout of working people, period

i've quit voting since 2000 - i stay home on election day and just watch the people who sell me out lose

what are we going to do about this?

I cant believe they havent changed their positions, with the economy plunging into recession

one way to help people in a recession, is to not glut the economy with hundreds of thousands of more workers
