  • In response to the coronavirus recession, President Trump signed an executive order suspending new temporary work visas until 2021. The White House cited the need to preserve jobs amid the growing unemployment rate. However, experts warn that this decision could be detrimental to the American economy, especially for tech giants like Facebook, Google and Microsoft. Watch the video to find out how work visa bans could impact the jobs market in the United States.

    Sometimes the jobless are not looking for a job. They are "choosing" their job. When they don't have one, they blame the others for stealing the job they are not willing to do. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.

      Americans had full employment before mass immigration. The US labor force participation is the lowest it has been since 2000. Americans are not looking for jobs because foreign staffing firms now control all hiring in US companies and are deliberately keeping Americans out of jobs. How come armies of foreign H-1B job robbers didn't create enough jobs for everyone as promised?

      Yeah, she's just echoing Republican beliefs and fear mongering. I've worked in tech for decades and there literally aren't enough skilled domestic programmers to fill all the (high paying) roles. I've worked with tons of Indian and Chinese HB1 visa holders because those countries put out way way more STEM graduates than the US. Tech is the most lucrative sector, with so many of those companies started by immigrants in Silicon Valley. So many companies and inventions all throughout American history were done by 1st or 2nd gen immigrants.

First of all not all Americans are willing to do any job that requires real physical hustle, and secondly there is no such thing cheap labor when anyone is on visa. To receive any work visa, the applicant wage needs to meet the requirements set by each county for a job profile. Most of the tech jobs pays well above $100K so wonder where is she getting her information.

      MInimum wage always causes a market distortion - firms just raise prices elsewhere. If you increase the pool of labour, the stock of money doesn't increase and so instituting a minimum wage is useless because firms will raise prices elsewhere to accommodate for the costs, or worsen conditions because they know someone else will have to tolerate it because of the excess competition.

    I am working in US on a non-immigrant visa and work in IT (I have electrical engineering degree). I have met a lot of people who work in IT and their situations and have to come to learn a lot about the visa frauds as well. So she is right about the visa frauds.
    Second, IT is a broad, good paying field and one can easily learn things online and get a good paying job. I have some American (white people) friends with associate and bachelor degrees and struggling to find any work. At the same time, they are too stubborn to switch career, learn new skills, and add value to their resume. They are so stubborn and constantly complain about their situation and the same time won't take any advice nor action to change their situation.
    So I don't agree with the lady that there is no job that American won't do.

      Data from the US Department of Commerce shows that over the over 436 occupational categories in the US only 6 are comprised of majority immigrants. These jobs make only about 1% of the national workforce. Even then, the lowest non-immigrant percentage for those 6 jobs is about 43%.

The lady from the Center of Immigration Studies was quick to assume American workers would accept the lowly paid labour intensive jobs without data or acknowledging that Americans value the worth of their labor, and that some companies hire immigrants to exploit them with lower wages and their lack of understanding of the labour laws. I believe most Americans want to work, feel valued and are paid their worth. Having skilled workers helps a country grow with innovation and fill in skill gaps so it's not a bad thing.

She has absolutely no idea what she's talking about, absolutely zilch! According to her the immigrant workers take low paying jobs in the lower rung of the corporate ladder. That definitely explains why 2/5 big tech CEOs are immigrants, and why there are so many immigrant executives in tech companies/wall street.

Historically, a huge proportion of the graduates from China’s top universities come to the US for PhD’s. Then over half of them stay for work or become professors (who have been educating highly skilled Americans). I personally know one such PhD on a Apple core team that invented industry-disrupting products that has raked in billions. Changes began in the past decade and sped up when Trump took office. A lot more such PhDs are returning to China because of the worsening situation in America and because China has been rapidly increasing support and benefits for high talents. It saddens me to see the American academia disrupted by politicians, but I’m also very proud to see my home country retaining these brilliant minds. They will bring about great things in the coming years, and Trump will keep accusing them of espionage.

      in an ever growing world, where more and more cities and housing becomes crowded and less living space is available (think the hong kong tiny rooms), why are people so freaked out over population decline? People shouldn't be paranoid. the rest of the world just cannot handle to have 1billion citizens like China - we can't have all countries be made of 1bill people. Not enough resources like food and fresh water.
      so you need workers in the healthcare industry to take care of the aging population - big deal. I guess those who can afford it will get services and those who can't will have to rely on their kids. eventually there will be no boomers (large amount of seniors) to take care of (like psw's) and Japan will be newborn again - like the earth and plants after the rain. All these job positions will open up for the young that were once taken up by the old. And majority of the demographic will be young and middle-aged in the workforce and not the old in retirement homes.

    I respect the anti-immigration argument, although I see these folks missing a big point. There are 2 categories of work guest workers do-
    1. the jobs for which it's hard to find American workers APPLYING for them
    2. the jobs for which it's hard to find American workers QUALIFIED for them
    The anti-immigration argument always talks about #1 to justify that in times of slow growth like now, Americans would be willing to work in those jobs too. i totally agree with it. But a blanket ban affects #2 which is completely overlooked. You cannot find American employees to replace jobs that are utilized by the H1B professionals.
    If these visa programs have been historically abused, the solution is to fix the visa policies, not vilify these H1b professionals and falsely claim that their jobs also can be done by Americans.

      People who don't need to deal with H1B visa do not understand that their government defined those jobs qualified for H1B as the jobs they don't have enough qualified Americans to do. Also, the employers need to explain to the government why they rather pay thousands of dollars to apply for the visa for these foreigners rather than hiring Americans.
      My experience is that if those employers can find Americans who are 60% qualified for the jobs, they would not hire foreigners because that save them a lot of work and $.
      But a lot of time they can't even find Americans who are 60% qualified.

      SN CY The labour market is already super competitive. But a developing country can’t compete with a rich one in a fight for talent other than say maybe offering a compelling vision for the future. It would be like a small tech company in a tier 2 town competing with Apple or Google for talent. Of course there are other reasons than money and opportunity for people to opt for the small company and thousands do choose to stay back in India in spite of an opportunity to emigrate. But a large proportion of people will take the safe option and nothing against them for it - it is the pragmatic thing to do. Which is why I am happy at the prospect of that option not being available at all.

    The Jessica Vaughn woman is the policy director for Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), a group that publicly advocates for much lower levels of immigration to the US. Some call them an immigration “restrictionist” group.
    Her views are biased and one-sided and intended to push for lower immigration levels. She cites no study or report as support for her views n this video.
    Did you see that on July 30, 2020, the GDP shrank by 32.9% in the 2Q? One reason is that worker immigrants are not doing or taking jobs because they can’t get in here.
    As the video said, they pay billions in taxes and generate demand for goods and services, thus create demand for American jobs themselves.

    The America's economy will survive without immigrants, but it will not thrive anymore. Getting the US work visa and moving countries is really hard, so I believe that most immigrants are extremely determined and hard working individuals. They differ from others in their unique experience, ability to adapt to new situations, willingness to learn another language and, because leaving your home country requires a lot of courage, fearlessness! Immigrants are an essential part of an American economy and Americans can learn a lot from working with them. Not allowing immigrants to come to the US will be a huge loss.
    BTW, what about all the American factories that are located abroad? How about making these big companies move factories back to the US? This change could create way more work opportunities for Americans than any changes in work visa policies.

      @DivineBella1 Před 3 lety +1

      HybridFlu A) I’m specially referring to farming in this comment, while you want to speak on big global companies. It’s a disconnect B) the value of the land and the amount of cash money a farmer has in his pocket to pay workers aren’t the same. Your implying that they should borrow against the value of the land which then puts them in even more debt. An most of the time when you do hear them speak on their finances even if they sell they are still in a financial hole. C) I’m sorry to say that companies looking for cheap labor will continue.

    I am an immigrant who happen to win lottery to come here back in 2nd September 2016 and got my green card 2 weeks after my arrival and paid for it ofc. I have worked Pizza Maker and never worked in any job but learned to work , I am student here too in CS Major. The U.S helped me to grow in personality and finance as well. thank you so much. helped me to pick many skills one of them is photography and videography which is it was impossible to do back home in Algeria. now I opened CZcams channel to do some travel and tech related videos that I love so much, it would not be possible without the U.S . I learned English here in the U.S and many other languages such as Japanese by meeting a lot of people from different countries and I have visited about 10 states by land . driven all around the place and I even got opportunity to see Canada. Thank you America and hopefully next year I will get my citizenship

      And as student in the CS Program, I believe that all workers , immigrant or native born American or Canadian or European or any country will be replace soon by AI so I believe every country should consider UBI better soon than later. because jobs won't come back for neither of people us or native born, everything will be for AI . by next year you will see change in employment rate not because of immigrant but because of Machines and Robots.

    The limited availability of work visas continues to be an issue for many
    employers - over 50 percent of agriculture and 90 percent of dairy
    workers are estimated to be foreign born or undocumented. At the same
    time, a decreasing rural population and increased reliance on foreign
    labor has put the agriculture industry at the center of immigration
    debates.
    “It just seems baffling that our politicians can't figure
    out that we don't have the domestic workforce to fill the jobs we need
    filled and businesses are being stifled and inflation is being increased
    because we can't find enough workers,”.

      @Pichkalu Pappita You're not even remotely correct about that, though. It's not exactly like you just throw seeds in the field and they pop up perfectly packaged for market. We're talking about knowledge of chemical application, knowledge and skill with certain industrial machinery, knowledge and skill with harvesting techniques specific to certain crops, often a working knowledge of plant genetics and soil biology (which I can tell you as a biologist are on the complicated end of our discipline). Yes, there are jobs that require more skill, but farmers have to wear a lot of different hats and develop deep skill sets that require a variety of licensing and years of experience. That's not "low skill" labor dip ass.

    How hard is it to understand we need to pause immigration during an employment crisis? We had another 1.3 million first time claims last week. It peaked at something like 600k in the "great" recession. The unemployment benefit extension is going to cost $437 billion through January.

    Some of our history was built by foreigners... but we play with the word "foreigners" and "immigration" in that the old world was US... Europeans and such. Once that establishment was constructed.. the current form of immigration is mainly 3rd world, poor living. SO what would make a country think people who LACK things, would be candidates to BUILD something. Would you hire a carpenter with no tools? Would you allow a man to cut you open with no medical degree/certification?
    Yet we go brain dead when it comes to common sense thinking. Immigration today is ONLY benefiting the IMMIGRANT, they are not returning any vital roles. working jobs americans don't want to do is not A GOOD THING. It means the job probably shouldn't exist. BUt it also doesn't stop there and they then get the jobs that are not being mentioned that they CLEARLY shouldn't.

      I would rather protect and cherish the roots of American culture like white european heritage, specifically Christianity. If you were to go around and ask millions of voters what matters to them, I dont think any of them would list what you have above. People want to perpetuate their own society, way of life, and culture. Bringing in a million+ immigrants every year is making it increasingly difficult to perpetuate the unique American way of life. These people come here and yeah maybe they do increase the gdp a bit, but what good is that if they are undercutting wages thereby making 2 income households almost essential to financially survive (which compounds declining birth rates of native born Americans), they are changing the fabric of the American society, and they have no connection whatsoever to our history, our culture, and our people. They speak their foreign language, wave their foreign flag, and maintain their foreign beliefs. That spells disaster for the American people who want to perpetuate what they have created. Mass immigration is irreversibly changing what we have created, and as a people, we have the right to self determination and should speak up if we dont want that.

      Tracy Cove I am a native American lol. And blacks have probably the most to gain economically of any demographic group in America from decreased immigration. Blacks in America largely work blue collar jobs that face severe wage growth suppression due to the massive influx of laborers from immigration. Cutting that off would require employers to raise wages to fill positions, which would greatly benefit blacks. On the cultural front, I would say its very ignorant to think neither blacks nor native born Americans want to perpetuate their culture and people. Improving and securing a better future for your group is the most innate instinct of human beings. So what exactly is your rebuttal?

For instance, If they become unemployed for whatever reason, they go home. They do not get unemployment benefits. Etc.
