You might have heard about it, read about it, thought about it and got frustrated if you were on a H1B … well I did and there was a short conversation between 'Inquisitive me' and 'Reasonable me'
Inquisitive me: Where does the government get such amounts of money, $900 billion?
Reasonable me: it gets money by taxing people.
Inquisitive me: So the $900 billion which the government wants to induce in to the market is the Tax payer’s money… wait a minute that means it’s my money too.
Reasonable me: Of course
Inquisitive me: Oh so now they want to take my money to put into a company I may want to work with... sounds good, the company may do well to start hiring and I can apply too....
Reasonable me: oh ho ho NOOOOOO! I am a H1B worker and they don't want to allow me
Inquisitive me: Don’t allow me… Don’t allow me to work for a company, whose survival fund includes my contribution?
Reasonable me: Doesn't that sound like some peace of disturbing proposal.
Inquisitive me: When they don't filter the customers of the company and they don't filter the tax payer’s money why do they want to filter the employees????
