You might have no problem, but things are generally against the person who seeks work. For the rest of us, large problems exist in finding/keeping work.
The amount of people looking for work is used against both people at work and people looking for work.
All sounds very civil but that not how it works here (U.S.). Most states have Right To Work laws (look it up, it sucks - basically union busting/slow erosion)
The reason goes back to some basic things like the right to form unions with out being fired, threatened or physically stopped (this used to be very common (Pinkertons)).
These days, the physical threats are replaced with lawyer hit teams like The Burke Group, Jackson Lewis, and the like.
the data-driven facts say that we don't have enough highly educated Americans to do the jobs our economy is currently producing,
US citizens already do, you and your kind just ask for impossible qualifications. Those impossible qualifications couldnt be met by anyone in the world, but only the US citizen ever sees these impossible qualifications; the foreign help gets away with a lot less.
and when someone talks like that, it means its someone who is a right wing nutjob.
I call events as I see them with my own eyes, ears, and brain. If that makes me a "right wing nutjob" in your eyes, so be it. I like my country, and proudly identify as a US Citizen. I may have disagreements from time to time as to how our government runs, but none that would make me want to surrender my citizenship.
If you just simply hate the right wing, you're biting the hand that feeds you. One part of them is responsible for sending the work offshore(and calling the critics "Communist" or "Socialist" while funding actual Communists & Socialists).
if elance, and other unmentionable firms maintain a us only market that is closed from the rest of the world, the rest of the world would maintain their market. all that would happen would be right wing nutjobs like you in usa, driveling in your own crap. because, a smaller market means less activity in ALL respects.
I'd hate to have to use such a dividing line, but the reasonable options kept getting circumvented.
what keeps them from being smote by a large first world interest? duh. i dont know.
What I am saying there is that I'm surprised that nobody has found a way to get those companies to play favorably to the US and western EU.
Yes, one is better off with Daquan and Bubba. They create some sort of value while keeping them off the streets.
That "highly educated" Pradeep is merely someone lower than Daquan & Bubba's level that took a couple of call center courses. Then they get a certificate by someone who claims that they are "highly educated".
Bringing foreign engineers to work here is not a zero sum game between them and the US engineers. The problem with the H1-b program is that we kick them out of the country AFTER we've trained them to do our jobs. If we encouraged the ones who could find employment here to stay, the program would be GOOD for American engineers.
Train the US citizens first, create US jobs for US citizens, then the world can follow. Otherwise the problem is that the program exists and fraudulently exports US jobs.
Why hire and keep people in USA rather than anywhere in Asia, now in India, later in China, the in Mongolia, I don't care?
Because at some point, not even the most legendary lawyers from Hell will save you from the US Government. At the worst, they may just cut the losses and sever the US arm from the foreign ones; the best is that they realize that their best interest will be to create US jobs.
I would only hope that IBM (and you) realize the error of your ways, and stop drinking the Third World Flavor-Aid. Otherwise someone's going to make it a very bad day for IBM.

Kernell's only crime was his political alignment. It would only be consistent to do that as well.

Sounds like something with how the crime was classified; the extra day being used to (minimally) meet any "over a year" requirement.
It might not be politically favorable to someone, but it'd at least mitigate the damage.

As another Ohioan:
Ohio doesn't have RTW, but if Head Banker-Elect Kasich has his way with the General Assembly, Ohio might just get that abomination.

Not if you live in the Free North.

- Is an employee considered property, or an 'asset'?
Disposable property unless C-level. See employment laws and attitudes towards compensation in the US in that matter.
- Can an employee be forced to do labor?
Yes. See the forced training of offshore replacements.
- Does an employee who does not want to do said labor walk away?
The cost is made high enough that they can't walk away. See our current economy.
However, that doesn't make my consistency of avoiding Wal-Mart any less so.
I shop anywhere but there.
Americans do not want training. You can see this by poking your nose into any science, math, or engineering graduate program in the nation.
Then give them the jobs, then train within the context of the job.

The problem is that Obama also knows that the damage is limited by the GOP also holding said position.
The opposing candidate is likely to support offshoring.

Unfortunately, you give the US citizen an impossible-to-meet set of qualifications, but let the foreign help get by with far less than the US citizen.
Then your fraud is exposed for all to see.
You're just making the qualifications overkill so you can create a "lack of qualified workers" out of thin air.
That still doesn't fix the lack of jobs for US citizens. It only encourages more fraud, and the $20k becomes a hostage ransom.
The only solutions that work are ones that put US citizens first and foremost, even at the expense of business.
That doesn't get rid of the fraud, killing the entire program and regulations will.
What you suggest only leads to more disposable & desperate workers.
That cheaper price comes with a higher cost of cleanup.
54000 jobs is far from the millions of lost jobs that still are lost.
All he wants to do is look good to the people that are offshoring work.
