...and doing it toward the exclusion of everything else in your life, for a career with no security whatsoever.

With deficits going the way they are, you might get to do both

I'll addres this one too - I don't think the US benefitted at all from H1b H1b was raised in 1998 from 65,000 to 105,000 and in sept 2000 from 105,000 to 195,000 In this same period, Greenspan goosed interest rates down twice in 1998 and then flooded money supply for Y2K So, in late...

The vast, vast majority of h1bs are IT workers. Nothing else even comes close. I have met some bright h1bs, but I have also met many who are very much below average. They are used because the employer has immense power over them. They are indentured servents. I have never met an h1b who...

Yes, it IS correct anymore (From INS government web page) "Is there an annual limit on the number of H-1B aliens? Yes. The current law limits to 195,000 the number of aliens who may be issued a visa or otherwise provided H-1B status in FY2001. In 2002 and 2003, the number of aliens who...

"yearly cap of like 20k " Try 195,000 per year, 10 times larger than you stated - that's a small city "H1's are not taking your job... Also, H1's do not depress wages" What happens to a stock's price when a large block hits the market? Yeah, it's like that

i would assume so

or you write he ad so that it contains obscure requirements that match the applicants background, that no one else would have, and are not even relevant to the new position I've seen this done firsthand, a foriegn co-worker bragged about it.

Well, you got me there, what you say is absolutely true, and a major disgrace

There shouldnt be any. H1b law requires that the visa applicant be working in a field whee there is a shortage, and the firm must demonstrate that applicants cannot be found at the prevailing wage. It not just for foriegners "who think it would be cool to come here"

I could not disagree more. I worked in IT for a number of years, and I enjoyed what I did, and was also very good at it. In the 90s, I also was compensated very well for what I did, partly because I was well placed, and in IT BEFORE the boom. The H1b situation, as I mentioned in a...

And as far as the stuff programmed on site goes, H1b visa holders are prefferred In 1998, the annual cap was raised from 65,00 per year to 105,000 per year - at the top of the boom (Sept 2000) it was raised AGAIN to 195,000 per year. A bill introduced by Tom Tancredo (R Colorado) to reduce...

I believe it is $27.50 .01 for first 500 .005 for the remaining 4500 maybe their limit orders are just as good, but it seems in my experience I got better fills on IB I say "seems" because I dont know enough to prove it, it just looked that way in my experience. IB is a direct access...

Thats what really bugs me about his advertising. Someone who takes major risk for a one time event to get bragging rights probably is not the best influence on learning traders, and those contest are what I usually see about him.

all kidding aside, I did receive a mailing for one of his seminars, and did some research found over and over again about how he won some contest and so did his daughter (and that his daughter is pretty and on some tv show) well, bruce jenner won the olympic decathelon, but what has he...

The biggest favor Ameritrade ever did for me was to raise prices in october. Going from 8 to whatever it is now (it was a big jump) forced me to look elsewhere. IB has WAY better commissions, and seems to have better fills, IMO.

filled on 5, +182 (minus whatever IB commissions) good day
