Immigration has been an important part of our nation’s success. The current system, however, puts up a concrete wall to the best and brightest, yet those without skill or education are able to walk across the border. We must reform the current immigration laws so we can secure our borders, implement a mandatory biometrically enabled, tamper proof documentation and employment verification system, and increase legal immigration into America.

To paraphrase Bill Maher (http://www.billmaher.com/) When you ride with Romney you ride with the Chinese intelligence service.

During the town-hall meeting, Romney played to the Silicon Valley crowd, some of whom work at nearby Google, Cisco Systems and Apple Inc.

…

Romney also expressed interest in expanding the number of H-1B visas, which allow employers to seek temporary help from foreigners holding at least a bachelor’s degree.

“H-1B visas are a great source of a brain magnet, if you will, bringing people into this country who have skill and experience from other countries,” he said.

Lamenting that many foreign doctoral candidates must leave the country after graduation, Romney added: “I’d rather staple a green card to your diploma and say that if you can get a Ph.D. from one of our great institutions, we’d love you to stay here.”

Romney pandered to the Silicon Valley Venture Capitalists that he dealt with while at Bain. Romney made 250 million by helping China and India get US know-how and US jobs and pushing down American programmers, engineers, scientists, and students who aspire to those jobs and a good life with income security. Romney has made his choice. Win or lose, Romney is on the side of Silicon Valley VC’s who have already turned their back on America and are loyal to the Chinese intelligence service. Romney and the VC’s give dual employment to employees of Chinese intelligence at their companies.

Talo Mahuinga, president of Kainga Tonga U.S.A, a Bay Area Tongan group, said he plans to vote for Romney. “I like his family values,” he said.

But Paul Steffas, who works for an alternative energy company, was underwhelmed. Steffas said he had hoped to hear the businessman-candidate talk more about the valley’s role as a global technology leader. “I’m not sure he knew his audience,” Steffas said.

” The H-1B Brain Magnet?” By Dan Stein:

“[Mitt] Romney can’t really believe what he said about Democrats because some his policies are almost identical. Like every Democratic candidate, and all Republicans with the exception of Tancredo, Romney thinks the number of H-1B visas should be increased. He argued that H-1B visas are used to attract smart people to the U.S. for positions in computer programming in engineering that Americans can’t or won’t do, but the truth of the matter is that H-1B is nothing but a way for employers to import cheap labor,” says Rob Sanchez in the Job Destruction Newsletter.

“Mitt Romney said that H-1B is a brain magnet that attracts the best and brightest foreign people to the United States. If Romney is right we should allow H-1Bs to run for president because so far I haven’t seen any candidate for president that is smart enough to run this country. Surely it couldn’t be difficult to use that brain magnet to import a politician that s smarter than our current crop of dunderheads running for president – and we could probably cut the H-1B president’s salary in half.”

Also, The New York Times has an interesting article on Indian outsourcing company Infosys today. “Such is the new outsourcing: A company in the United States pays an Indian vendor 7,000 miles away to supply it with Mexican engineers working 150 miles south of the United States border.”
