On this particular occasion, Jean, your problem is not the low opinion I have of you. Rather, it is the substance of what you’ve asserted, most of which is simply wrong. These things are not a matter of opinion, they’re easily verifiable.
When you say Go to a university campus such as USC, Stanford, UCLA and you'll see "AMERICANS NEED NOT APPLY" is what is happening, that’s just not right. You certainly don’t have to take my word for it. Here are the statistics for the schools you listed. The LARGE majority of students on the campuses are Americans: USC - 12% of undergraduates are foreign students; http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/...123961#enrolmt UCLA - 6% of undergraduates are foreign students; http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/...110662#enrolmt Stanford - 8% of undergraduates are foreign students; http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/...243744#enrolmt Further, when you opine that Those that start businesses only hire their own, not Americans!!!, that’s wrong also. I can assure you, Jean, that Google employs many people who are not Russians, the large majority of folks hired by Intel have not been Hungarians, and that most people working for Hovnanian Homebuilders are not Iraqis. Don’t believe it? Try walking into one of their offices or places of business. Those are all California entities. Hey, if you like, trot across the Yahoo! campus at 24th and Broadway in Santa Monica. I do all the time. It’s less than two miles from my home. If promise you that if you do, you’re going to see a majority of people working there aren’t Chinese.

Quote:
the foreigners hiring thing is true, but largely to the extent of low tec verses hi tech. Foreigners who get a degree in business management or accounting or something akin to that, and then open a market, restaurant, or motel, will generally hire other immigrants, and often from their own origin. I see it alot in grocery stores owned by asians, even the bigger, newer supermarket types. All fellow asians and a few latino. Now high tech is a bit different. You're right that they will hire anyone. |

Here's the problem w/ what you asserted -
The "points" authored by Jean, that you are attempting to defend, are not what she stated. Here's what she did state: 1) Go to a university campus such as USC, Stanford, UCLA and you'll see "AMERICANS NEED NOT APPLY" is what is happening. 2) Almost all that come here internationally never leave and take the better working positions. 3) Those that start businesses only hire their own, not Americans!!! These assertions are simply wrong. Demonstrably so. Had any "point" she made been one of the ones you described above, your contentions would bear some weight. They just weren't, however. Further, I failed to mention earlier: Those graduating our high schools can't compete to even get in many of our universities ... That one's wrong too, Davi. If you think I'm mistaken, please give me even a partial list of those American universities wherein U.S. high school graduates can't compete for admission. You can forget the examples she listed, if you like. Can you name ANY (legitimately accredited) four-year institution in the U.S. wherein foreign students make up even half the student body? A college or university, I'll accept either.
