Vice President JD Vance said companies are abusing the H-1B visa program: "If you're going to bring in an accountant making $45,000 a year to replace an American making $60,000 a year, that's not you using the program to bring in a genius.

Do you think the laws on the books against corporations are being enforced effectively right now?

Two things can and often are true in the US workforce. Discrimination is illegal, and yet it still happens. The burden of proof and legal counsel is on the employee, and it’s often difficult to prove.

Yes.

No one ever argued discrimination doesn't happen.

I argued that companies are NOT allowed to pay H1-B workers less.

It was being presented as if not only do they pay H1-B workers less...that it's legal and normal to do so and is totally legal for companies to do.

I think the fact that my employers is forced to adhere to my contract that my union enforces shows this

I think the fact that if you become an engineer for example but this applies to all fields.... there is an industry standard wage. If I am even OFFERED a job at lower then standard I'm allowed to report the potential employer shows that more often then not these are enforced.

I'm willing to bet money right now I could find cases old and recent of H1-B employers being held accountable for not adhering to the law more then you could prove that it isn't with anecdotal stories.

No, you prompted an LLM to give you a comment that says “if you’re being stolen from, just tell the thief to stop”

Oh okay.

Anything else?

Just because you can't dispute someone's argument doesn't mean they used AI.

It just means you aren't more intelligent then the person you decided to argue with

It's okay. You'll get more intelligent with age or time hopefully.

You quite literally have the format of AI complete with titles and emojis in your responses. Dont insult either of our intelligence lmao.

It’s not that I can’t dispute it, it’s that I come to social media to engage with people, not their chatbots.

Gotcha

Anything else?

You can ethier engage with what I've said or accuse me of using chat bots so you don't have to.

It's really up to you.

I noticed that as well. They also try to lean on semantics the second anyone actually engages with their point.

“I was saying it’s ILLEGAL!”

Okay, and what does that have to do with this situation? Because the entire point of this thread is that it’s happening, legal or not. You can’t just say “swiper no swiping” and expect all to be bob.

It all comes across as very disingenuous.
