• White collar jobs are negative . We are still giving out 1600 visas a day for entry level work. It’s not helping American grads who can’t get jobs!

Here’s the sector breakdown for the Y/Y change in jobs – in a few more months, we should see the annual increase in gov’t really come down and hopefully a manufacturing recovery isn’t far behind

• The hiring rate for college students and recent grads is in the garbage. No need to cover it up. There are solutions like ending H-1B, J-1, and OPT and cracking down on the OUT OF CONTROL offshoring of white collar jobs. So let’s get it done. – Barefoot Student
• Not for technology workers. POTUS has turned his back on American Technology Workers. We have the talent and the numbers but H1B abuse continues. H1B will lose the midterms for the President. – Casey
