Indian-American are non entities in American politics. Do you think Ajit Pai will resign ? A lot of them are pretty much house niers. Look at Bobby Jindal for example. The guy is pretending to be hard core Christian and a white. No one cares about immigrants.
No one is forced to be on H1B. You are welcome to go back to your country any time you wish.

As an India I find India far worse than slavery in USA that is why I am in USA in first place.

I request Indian employees to gang up and try to move their jobs to India so we can build better industries in India.

> Probably what the Trump administration wants in the first place.

Also this hurts only Indian and Chinese people and not the usual white people coming from say Canada or Germany.

Trump's H1B motivations are purely racist and both political parties are extremely racist towards Asians hands down.

The idea is to force Chinese and Indians to go back because there are the only two groups get affected as Green card queue for them is over 30 years now (if they apply today).

Just like minimum wage or other policies that have unintended implications this will harm US tech scene and marginally benefit India and China but it is the bigger loss for humanity.

Funding will move to those places as well. Google, Facebook have already invested Billions in Canada and China in last 1 year especially for AI.

Most countries are behind by say 5-10 years compared to USA but they have more people. An AI center in Shanghai can produce lot more in next 20 years than something in Bay Area. Lowerver birth rates in USA means USA is nearly assured to lose its competitiveness.

> Not "should you be allowed to do that?"

Can people be allowed to own guns ? Can ISPs be allowed to provide differential bandwidth ? Can people be allowed to hold men only screening of Wonder Woman ? Can people be allowed to hold draw a muhammad event ?

Everyone has their own exception to freedom.

I am unable to see any "trolling" in the comment. The comment seems accurate.
Good idea. A lot of corrupt Indian politicians have been sending their progeny to USA with this visa. It has nothing to do with startups but it is putting up visa for sale.

There is nothing wrong in putting visa for sale, but please do not insult many of us who are giving prime of our careers to startups while jumping through complex maze of US visa system.
