As usual, there are countless immigration topics and I'll be guided by whatever you're concerned with. Please remember that I can't provide legal advice on specific cases for obvious liability reasons because I won't have access to all the facts. Please stick to a factual discussion in your questions and comments and I'll do the same in my answers!

At $22/h you are actually competing with offshore workers in remote low COL locations.

How would you justify it's you should get the work/money, not imigrant worker? The fact your parents immigrated earlier than they should justify it in your opinion?

22/hr for offshore work? Where, India?

The fact that I'm American justifies it. If Americans flooded into say, Somalia, bought up all the houses, took up all the jobs etc, you'd be horrifically offended.

Americans have no where else to go. This is my home and I will not abandon it. You can't just drop 50 million extra workers into a country and expect people to just take it.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I and other Americans completely agree with what you're saying and I'm sorry your question is getting downvoted. There are lots of bleeding hearts on this site. Anyway, I wanted to let you know to not give up, don't believe the gaslighters - Americans do deserve American jobs. I'll sacrifice a few HN points to say this so others don't have to. Keep fighting.
