When did Ted Cruz start writing restaurant reviews?

So I read that beast. Do you routinely go through huge rafts of bureaucratic gobbledygook like this? That was punishing.

I now recognize this as the result of some long-discussed policy reforms to loosen restrictions on H-1B workers. They were mainly being pushed for by Silicon Valley tech giants (think Google, Facebook, et. al.), who argue that they are facing a resource crunch, especially for engineering talent, in a global market.

This strikes me as credible enough, a tradeoff between the job prospects of some American tech workers and the competitiveness of one of the big homegrown growth drivers of American industry.

I still see a lot of speculation in the analysis of the potential results here (the policy hasn't been enacted, is in the public-comment phase for another six weeks.) For instance, where is the evidence that H-1Bs work for significantly less than their American counterparts? From what I know of tech salaries, especially in the Valley, they're not working for less -- talent is talent, and gets competed for, regardless of whether they're carrying student debt loads or not.

So I'm curious: if you are against letting -- what is it, 100,000? -- skilled foreign workers into the country to compete for American jobs, how do you feel about outsourcing by American companies, which has had an infinitely greater impact on American standards of living, sending tens of millions of good, middle-class jobs in manufacturing, services and other sectors to countries with lower labor costs?

Would you be in favor of putting up barriers or incentives to reduce that ongoing outflow of jobs? After all, both outsourcing and the fight for laxer H-1B standards are efforts by American companies to remain competitive in an increasingly globalized economy, that in the process harm Americans' wages and employment prospects. Why is one okay and not the other? Where do you draw the line between corporate profits and the health of the middle class?

as part of a network of foaming-at-the-mouth anti-immigrant groups founded or funded by John Tanton, who in turn has received millions in funding from the white supremacist Pioneer Fund, which advocates eugenics to achieve "racial purity".

Still don't see the problem with citing a study by this organization to support your point about immigration?

If I were you, I'd cower behind an anon tag, too.

which racist "think tank" your article was citing as the source of an immigration study, i.e., CIS.

Maybe if you registered under a uHub ID, you could edit your posts, too. Why exactly would you not do that, anyway?

Oh, that's the short-form one? Let's see the long-form one. Hmm, that looks like a fake to me, and I suspect the local newspapers that printed his birth announcements were conspiring with his family in the event that Rafael wanted to run for President in the future.

Also, still waiting on the proof that Trump's father wasn't an orangutan. Where's the birth certificate? How can we be sure that he's not the mutant offspring of Bibendum, a bag of orange cotton candy, and a rotten pumpkin?

So what you are saying is that if Obama had been born in Kenya like the nut jobs say it wouldn't have made a difference?

Because Cruz was actually born outside America, to a father who wasn't American- the same thing Orly and her bunch got their panties all bunched up about when it wasn't even true about the President.

Personally I'm sick of the unamerican candidates those folks keep throwing at us. I'd rather elect an American. First they want us to vote for a Panamanian, then a Mexican, and now a damned Canuck. Basta ya!
