"America Eats its Young"

Well, I think it would piss them off. I honestly don't know what a "temporary worker" would think of it. Apart from giggle at our demise, possibly? :shrug:

4. One of mine too, but he was a terrific actor who broke barriers.
Quite a social consciousness, he was. And yet not many people know of him or don't consider him famous. (Ouch! And I'm usually the one who doesn't care about celebs... Mike deserved to be more known.)

Age 57 of throat cancer. Way too young.

5. So what is H1B besides a type of visa?
And what does that have to do with your bumper sticker?

6. by allowing such visas
The government increases the number of workers for certain types of jobs. More competition = lower pay and fewer opportunities.
