Let's face it, Trump's first term was a disaster and now even before his term starts it's a big dumpster fire. Trump and the word failure go hand in hand.
As a software dev, there’s more than enough devs here in the US. We just don’t want to get paid shit wages and work 50+ work week hours while the executives reap the benefits. Code burn out is a different level of exhaustion.
Who says we don’t? Billionaire musk wants the foreign workers H1B so he can pay them lower wages. He couldn’t spend all his money in 1,000 years. Greedy b---d.
Musk could spend a few billion and start his own university. In a few years he'd be drowning in smart people. Unless people actually don't want to go to his university just like they don't want to work for him which is the real reason he finds it hard to hire.

@@sallyprzybil2404 I agree-but there’s such a not-so-subtle push to keep our population uneducated. There’s this “who needs college?” mentality that many at the top are pushing. I believe it’s intentional to ensure that we have lots of worker bees who blindly follow along. I’m not saying college is a must but it just feels really suspicious hearing the ultra-wealthy tout a rather “anti-college” agenda. Also-Elon is obsessed with our declining birth rate. Why is that? We have to keep churning out worker bees. They (the super wealthy) don’t realize that they have gone too far and now the working class does not feel stable enough financially to even want to bring children into the world.
That's been the H1B dirty lie for the last 20 years. Explains the ridiculous (impossible to fill) job postings for IT Developers, Engineers, Software for the largest US companies. The large tech companies announcing layoffs in 2024 and requesting more H1B workers, at the same time.
Wait...I know about someone who was raised by an Indian mother, made to work and study hard, and is, nevertheless, a real American. I think she actually ran for president.
It would solve many problems for Musk - not least a much cheaper workforce of educated workers, lesser environmental restrictions, reduced transport costs, closer approximity to the two largest global markets, etc. Plus, it would mean tens of thousands of "Americans" being made unemployed - which, as most might be expected to be "MAGA", is extra pleasing.

If the wealthy paid their fair share of taxes, we wouldn’t need a department of DOGE. We would be able to fund schools and the department of education and they wouldn’t need to touch Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. Instead, the wealthy are allowed every loophole in the world by the IRS to avoid paying taxes. How does this make sense?
I completely agree but that’s the point-they don’t WANT an educated population. It’s cheaper to exploit immigrants and pay them less and force them into bad working conditions. Remember when half of our country freaked out over student loan debt relief? They have us (their minions) pitted against one another and that was a clear example of that.
Trump and his billuonaire,friends want kids to remain stupid. That way they can be controlled. Only the rich will send their kids to private schools so they can learn then take jobs from people who had a lower education without getting degrees....they have a plan and it must be stopped. Do what Hitler did. Build a big school for boys 9-17, school and brainwash them, then have them enter their military. That is how Hitler built his army.
This problem could be solved if college was affordable or free. I have my Associates degree but had to stop before obtaining my bachelor's degree because my student debt was already ridiculous. Fu#$ing pissed
Yep, that's ridiculous. Most European countries have free education, including universities, what Republicans call "socialism" (and universal healthcare). Yet, Americans keep voting for them. 🤦 🇪🇺
Who is running Musk's companies, he is not paying attention to it. What's the making of his human work force at his companies? I like the slogan: India First.
@@sylviagoodman6008yep! They get us (the minions) to fight against one another. That’s their goal and it has been working so far. Hopefully people will realize that this is class warfare more than left/right issues.
He likes campaigning because he, like any dictator, loves to hear the roar of the crowd for him. Look at how he stands there while they cheer for him during his speeches, he acts like a dictator. He really needs some mental health help, and the dangerous part is he doesn't even realize it, and his family is ignoring it.
On the h1b visa,the company has to pay at least 60k salary. Don't know if there is a stipulation on number of hours. But that required pay is still far less than they'd have to pay an American. About half,if not more.
It's frustrating to see Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk advocating for H-1B visas for foreign engineers while ignoring the essential contributions of hard-working Mexican farmworkers. These workers play a crucial role in providing affordable food for Americans, yet there’s no discussion about granting them visas. This selective approach not only undermines the needs of essential workers but also goes against Trump's previous stance on immigration. Prioritizing foreign engineers for corporate profit while neglecting those who contribute significantly to our food supply is a double standard that harms many Americans in the long run.
Which is more important: Twitter? Or food? We should run an experiment on that with Musk. Deprive him of food for six weeks. Then, deprive him of Twitter for six weeks. See how he does.
💯 Right? I care way more about getting everyone access to healthy, affordable food than about fancy, broken Teslas, or Musk algorithmic manipulation of X. We gotta focus on policies that help the people who really keep us healthy and alive.
Trump hasn’t figured out that Musk is like him. Doesn’t have a care for anything except his own interests. Musk isn’t MAGA of Trumpian or anything . He is Muskian. He doesn’t care for Trump the man, and Musk will gladly let him go to prison if it suits him. Musk found a really desperate man and used him masterfully. Musk cannot be President but he is building a power base to be President maker. Interesting times. If anyone thinks that in a falling out between Trump and Musk that the former will win, think again. Musk is way smarter than Trump and many Trumpers.
maybe too fast? Problem is....maybe only Trump knows what it coming next..we all have NO IDEA..and it will MOST LIKELY be way worse than what he did on Jan. 6th. Trump believes he is chosen to destroy our Democracy..just think about that kind of damage he plans to do.
I hope the "real" citizens of the United States of America, appreciate your efforts of truth telling whilst being under threat of who knows what can happen under a tRump second term. Luv you guys , true truth heroes❤
Ridiculous. That would be like charging someone for failing to check a box on a form when they bought a gun years ago. Or jailing someone for back taxes they actually paid back. That only applies to Democrats.
Come to find out Musk lied on his visa form. He could be deported for that. Don't know if his citizenship can be stripped, by one isn't supposed to lie on visa papers either.
@@Suzie-j3t To be fair, many top Indian techs are in India. They haven't developed remarkable successes in their space organisation ISRO without very good techs and engineers.

It wouldbt go anywhere. If the Democratic party managed to get a few Republicans to vote in favour of another impeachment, it wouldn't make it through the soon to be Republican controlled Senate for a conviction. At this point it's nothing political theater.
@cindytripp he was impeached twice and there was evidence. He just didn't get convicted both times. Because the Senate GOP wouldn't see the evidence or hear any testimony at all. They were reverse Kangaroo hearings.
I am disgusted with Americans who voted in a felon, A felon should never have had the opportunity to run for president. This should have been the first law from the birth of the nation.
Just wanted to put in my 2 cents: This notion of the U.S.A. needing to import foreign workers because we don't have intelligent technical support is absolutely ludicrous. I've worked in the hospitality industry for 17 years and it's only been in the last 5-7 years that we've had to deal with software support from India on a daily basis. And a good 95% of the time the problem has to be "escalated" to a level 2 or 3 team. And when we hear back from that level 2-3 team, it is inevitably from an American born/English speaking citizen. Remember when it was a regular part of a comedian's set to include talking to tech support with an Indian accent? Well it wasn't just comedic relief... it was a real world experience. But Elon Musk doesn't comprehend real world experience does he? No more than Donald Trump, that's for sure. My conclusion: I'll bet Musk is trying to find another way to gain control over technology, the same way he gained some control over social media through Twitter/X. Only he can't buy his way over Microsoft and other tech software companies so easily. Therefore he's going into the political process to gain power and Trump is the easiest & dumbest backdoor for sell. Not to mention a high percentage of scammers are located in India... and busted by American hackers to Indian authorities. And these are the people Musk wants to import?!? More foxes in the hen house!! I'm starting to see why people believe Musk should be deported, and rightfully so.
Trying to get a foreigner to understand how things work in another country is often quite difficult because of the cultural differences. Delivery problems seem to baffle them, for example, because things happen differently where they live. Trying to get them to go off script can be even more difficult than with native customer service. Has nothing to do with intelligence or fluency in English (English is one of the commonly used languages in India, despite the big differences in accent and talking speed). This just makes support calls more of a nightmare for the customer. I am also tired of some guy obviously somewhere in India cheerfully introducing himself as "Bob"...
He gets how it works, but he doesn't have to pay these people as much as he'd have to pay Americans. That's literarily the only reason he's "going to war" over this. Who could've guessed that the billionaires are all about the money? If you think this is bad, wait until y'all learn how many foreigners Trump hires.
Your comment is xenophobic. “More foxes in the henhouse”? One of those “foxes” is my wonderful Indian husband, who I’ve been happily married to for 15 years. He came here on an H1B visa, and he’s worked really hard to make a good life for us. He excels at his job, as do his Indian and non-Indian colleagues. His relatives have also come here (dentists, business people, doctors) and they all contribute in a positive way to their community. Think before you say something so stupid again.
I agree with you 💯. I knew the guy was crazy when he said he was going to colonize Mars. Before that I have also been reading about Tesla accidents for a few years now and know that his company is dishonest and use predatory business practices. Another good example of predatory practice was the hostile takeover of Twitter.
The difference is the USA that going to college is very expensive. Unless you can get a scholarship some people cant afford to go to University/College.
Whereas Modi's India is rife with fraud and corruption extending to professional certification and the quality of college and university degrees offered. Why do so many Indian students seek to obtain a college or university degree overseas, in countries like Canada ..
Are you trying to be rational ? Haha. They don't give AF about you and never did. Who are you going to blame.now for taking your jobs? Immigrants frommthw Mexico border still? Still not White's giving them the people jobs.
I keep hoping I will wake up tomorrow and it will be election day and find this is all a bad dream. Sadly though I think it is reality. One I never expected to live long enough to see.
@ what about the already risen costs under the current administration. Rents around 29 percent. Gas above that. Groceries around 35 percent.

Because you fail to see the disaster you had
The Ramaswamy said white people were mediocre. That statement was not directed towards black people. That comment was directed toward white Americans that told him that they wouldn’t vote for him because he was Indian.

Neither he nor Trump care about any one of those millions, only what they can grift from them.

Joke is not even funny
His a idiot
Deport Elon musk and trump to India and you American know what to do run the country with biden and Obama
Let Elon and the Tech Bros PAY their fair share in taxes to fund our schools and teachers to educate our kids.
Why should Trump do that??? He promised everyone the very opposite!
If the wealthy paid their fair share of taxes, we wouldn’t need a department of DOGE. We would be able to fund schools and the department of education and they wouldn’t need to touch Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. Instead, the wealthy are allowed every loophole in the world by the IRS to avoid paying taxes. How does this make sense?
I completely agree but that’s the point-they don’t WANT an educated population. It’s cheaper to exploit immigrants and pay them less and force them into bad working conditions. Remember when half of our country freaked out over student loan debt relief? They have us (their minions) pitted against one another and that was a clear example of that.
Will never happen, President Elon is now in charge.
Trump and his billuonaire,friends want kids to remain stupid. That way they can be controlled. Only the rich will send their kids to private schools so they can learn then take jobs from people who had a lower education without getting degrees....they have a plan and it must be stopped. Do what Hitler did. Build a big school for boys 9-17, school and brainwash them, then have them enter their military. That is how Hitler built his army.

@@zbigniewkosior2517exactly. He's just a poster boy, that's all?He is, and that's the only reason he made it this far
He likes campaigning because he, like any dictator, loves to hear the roar of the crowd for him. Look at how he stands there while they cheer for him during his speeches, he acts like a dictator. He really needs some mental health help, and the dangerous part is he doesn't even realize it, and his family is ignoring it.
Hell the whole country is
I'm pretty sure most of his family doesn't give a d*** about him anymore
Ben, you nailed the description of Trump’s incompetence. Most of us know these things but hearing it said is golden. Thanks! 💙
Lol. The circus has started! 😅😅😅
The push for these VISAS so you won't have to PAY FAIR WAGES PERIOD !!!😅😅😅
On the h1b visa,the company has to pay at least 60k salary. Don't know if there is a stipulation on number of hours. But that required pay is still far less than they'd have to pay an American. About half,if not more.
I am having a hard time believing we have insufficient talent here in the USA.
Indentured servitude.
Thank god for you two who keep us informed and up to date.
Agree with all said by you both.
It's frustrating to see Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk advocating for H-1B visas for foreign engineers while ignoring the essential contributions of hard-working Mexican farmworkers. These workers play a crucial role in providing affordable food for Americans, yet there’s no discussion about granting them visas. This selective approach not only undermines the needs of essential workers but also goes against Trump's previous stance on immigration. Prioritizing foreign engineers for corporate profit while neglecting those who contribute significantly to our food supply is a double standard that harms many Americans in the long run.
Which is more important: Twitter? Or food?
We should run an experiment on that with Musk. Deprive him of food for six weeks. Then, deprive him of Twitter for six weeks. See how he does.
Trump money comes from big tec, not agriculture, so those immigrants has to go, plus that's what America voted for ❤❤😂😂😂😂
That is where the DOGE BROS want to ensconce American workers displaced by H-1B, into the fields of agricultural America.
THAT is the thing people should be focusing on!
💯 Right? I care way more about getting everyone access to healthy, affordable food than about fancy, broken Teslas, or Musk algorithmic manipulation of X. We gotta focus on policies that help the people who really keep us healthy and alive.
Trump isn’t even in the Oval Office yet…
…and the entire Trump MAGA clown show is collapsing before our very eyes.
Oh! What a surprise…
Trump isn’t even in the Oval Office yet and the liberal daily meltdown is gold. I love it so much.
@@canavan85 Liberals are a different party and I don't think they give AF
One can only hope. My biggest concerns are Family Services, Department of Education, and Social Security. And the Department of Health.
Trump hasn’t figured out that Musk is like him. Doesn’t have a care for anything except his own interests. Musk isn’t MAGA of Trumpian or anything . He is Muskian. He doesn’t care for Trump the man, and Musk will gladly let him go to prison if it suits him. Musk found a really desperate man and used him masterfully. Musk cannot be President but he is building a power base to be President maker. Interesting times. If anyone thinks that in a falling out between Trump and Musk that the former will win, think again. Musk is way smarter than Trump and many Trumpers.
@canavan85 liberals are living rent free in your head. How does it feel?
I have to be honest. It's entertaining watching it happen so quickly. I was worried that it might take months.
maybe too fast? Problem is....maybe only Trump knows what it coming next..we all have NO IDEA..and it will MOST LIKELY be way worse than what he did on Jan. 6th. Trump believes he is chosen to destroy our Democracy..just think about that kind of damage he plans to do.

Can we deport Musk? He was her on a student visa which expired … then ….
Melanie should also be deported
Ridiculous. That would be like charging someone for failing to check a box on a form when they bought a gun years ago. Or jailing someone for back taxes they actually paid back.
That only applies to Democrats.
Come to find out Musk lied on his visa form. He could be deported for that. Don't know if his citizenship can be stripped, by one isn't supposed to lie on visa papers either.
i think u are a bit rotted in the brain

Impeach Jan20½ 2025
It wouldbt go anywhere. If the Democratic party managed to get a few Republicans to vote in favour of another impeachment, it wouldn't make it through the soon to be Republican controlled Senate for a conviction. At this point it's nothing political theater.
the only person who is going to save usa is trump. maybe go have ur little brain checked
Why? It didn't work to remove him the first two times. How would that work and what are the charges???
@cindytripp he was impeached twice and there was evidence. He just didn't get convicted both times. Because the Senate GOP wouldn't see the evidence or hear any testimony at all. They were reverse Kangaroo hearings.

Great Discussion Mike & Ben!
Just wanted to put in my 2 cents: This notion of the U.S.A. needing to import foreign workers because we don't have intelligent technical support is absolutely ludicrous. I've worked in the hospitality industry for 17 years and it's only been in the last 5-7 years that we've had to deal with software support from India on a daily basis. And a good 95% of the time the problem has to be "escalated" to a level 2 or 3 team. And when we hear back from that level 2-3 team, it is inevitably from an American born/English speaking citizen. Remember when it was a regular part of a comedian's set to include talking to tech support with an Indian accent? Well it wasn't just comedic relief... it was a real world experience. But Elon Musk doesn't comprehend real world experience does he? No more than Donald Trump, that's for sure.
My conclusion: I'll bet Musk is trying to find another way to gain control over technology, the same way he gained some control over social media through Twitter/X. Only he can't buy his way over Microsoft and other tech software companies so easily. Therefore he's going into the political process to gain power and Trump is the easiest & dumbest backdoor for sell.
Not to mention a high percentage of scammers are located in India... and busted by American hackers to Indian authorities. And these are the people Musk wants to import?!?
More foxes in the hen house!!
I'm starting to see why people believe Musk should be deported, and rightfully so.
Trying to get a foreigner to understand how things work in another country is often quite difficult because of the cultural differences. Delivery problems seem to baffle them, for example, because things happen differently where they live. Trying to get them to go off script can be even more difficult than with native customer service. Has nothing to do with intelligence or fluency in English (English is one of the commonly used languages in India, despite the big differences in accent and talking speed). This just makes support calls more of a nightmare for the customer.
I am also tired of some guy obviously somewhere in India cheerfully introducing himself as "Bob"...
Dam Musk sure shit money hungry orange thing.
It is about money, always is!
He gets how it works, but he doesn't have to pay these people as much as he'd have to pay Americans. That's literarily the only reason he's "going to war" over this.
Who could've guessed that the billionaires are all about the money? If you think this is bad, wait until y'all learn how many foreigners Trump hires.
Your comment is xenophobic. “More foxes in the henhouse”? One of those “foxes” is my wonderful Indian husband, who I’ve been happily married to for 15 years. He came here on an H1B visa, and he’s worked really hard to make a good life for us. He excels at his job, as do his Indian and non-Indian colleagues. His relatives have also come here (dentists, business people, doctors) and they all contribute in a positive way to their community. Think before you say something so stupid again.
Europe here: Musk stirring up Rightwingers here too just shows his craving for power and influence. Guy is crazy..
Agree! He is also meddling in UK politics, to serve his puppet-master Trump and we hate both in the UK!
I agree with you 💯. I knew the guy was crazy when he said he was going to colonize Mars. Before that I have also been reading about Tesla accidents for a few years now and know that his company is dishonest and use predatory business practices. Another good example of predatory practice was the hostile takeover of Twitter.
He wants to be king of the world

The emperor has no clothes.
The difference is the USA that going to college is very expensive. Unless you can get a scholarship some people cant afford to go to University/College.
Whereas Modi's India is rife with fraud and corruption extending to professional certification and the quality of college and university degrees offered. Why do so many Indian students seek to obtain a college or university degree overseas, in countries like Canada ..
Are you trying to be rational ? Haha. They don't give AF about you and never did. Who are you going to blame.now for taking your jobs? Immigrants frommthw Mexico border still? Still not White's giving them the people jobs.
