Immigration is about talent, not costs

I am surprised each time I see this kind of casual bigotry on HN. Seriously, "school in India called, Institute of Suspiciously Obscure Technologies"? I don't think there's any other way of reading your comment other than "most Indians lie on resumes and in interviews."

It's understandable seeing this kind of stuff on reddit from 13 year-olds. But I don't understand what vantage makes you make such sweeping generalizations about a supposedly monolithic chunk of 1 billion human beings.

Haven't you heard the joke about how pretty much everything that requires a caveat "not trying to be racist here" is actually racist?

Not to mention the fact that a sizeable number of Indians on H1Bs actually went to great grad schools... Not everyone from India came here to work for a bodyshop.

That's not what I got out of reading that same snippet

And what did you get out of it, then?
