You're repeating yourself like a bot now. I already told you, you can start on that study yourself by doing certain comparisons a year from now, when this policy starts fully taking effect. Why are you spamming this thread?
I don’t have to start on shyt

I already broke down the simple math for you


How about you acknowledge that the current policy does not help one single foundational black American


nikka in here telling me to conduct a study, who the fukk do you think you are :russ: you know a nikka dont have an argument when he starts pulling that dumb shyt out of his ass

I don't know if you think you're replying to the same person. Let's go with your theory that the current policy doesn't help black people, since no one with a brain gives a fukk about the FBA acronym gang, that's still about 9% of the STEM workforce. Why do you think this percentage can't get even worse when every other thing Trump has done has actually gotten worse for black people in terms of employment?
You're stuck doing dumb math.

@The Plug you want a study so bad you fukkin create it and stop depending on other men to do work that you want done :camby:
nikka you're the one who said you wanted a study. Now you're deflecting.:gucci:

dude, you’re fukking stupid

There’s not a single job that is in this policy that is currently in a foundational black person‘s hands


What in the fukk are you even talking about?



why is it that you cannot acknowledge that simple fact?

As dependable as the tides.
the only thing that you bring to the table in a discussion about this issue is repeating talking points and being deranged

You are unable to think for yourself :umad: which is why you are unable to discuss this issue beyond a very basic statement

📊 Strategic View​

  • Net “winner”: Canada (direct substitution effect).
  • Medium-term winners: India & China (retain talent, boost local ecosystems).
  • Secondary winners: EU, Australia, Gulf (attract redirection flows).
  • Big loser: The U.S., which risks hollowing out its talent pipeline and weakening its innovation edge.
On paper, there are millions of Americans with degrees who struggle to find stable employment. But the nuance lies in skills, specialization, and mobility.

Many U.S. graduates don’t have the exact technical expertise (e.g., advanced chip design, AI, niche coding languages, biostatistics) or the willingness to relocate to where demand is highest. Employers often say the “talent shortage” isn’t about the number of people, but about the fit between skills and jobs. Foreign H-1B workers fill these high-demand, specialized gaps quickly, whereas retraining the domestic workforce takes years and requires systemic investment in education and vocational training.

So while the policy may create opportunities for some unemployed Americans, in practice it risks leaving critical positions unfilled, slowing projects, and raising costs. The paradox is: yes, there is U.S. talent, but it’s not always the right talent at the right place and time.

:ehh:

My counter to that would only be that these companies don’t want to train folks + many of these jobs dont need special skills + Don’t believe everything employers say, they’ll say BS in order to keep paying the Indians less / keep hooking up their Indian cousins with jobs :yeshrug:


I firmly believe in Black Americans abilities to do the majority of these jobs, since 9/10 for us to even get a job we have to be 2x better anyways

I hear you breh.

But let’s be real fam...no company is suddenly gonna fill up its ranks with Americans when, by definition, that talent pool is more expensive and harder to retain. If you were a CEO, would you rather deal with John, who can quit on short notice without so much as a text message, or bring in an H-1B hire who’s motivated to work harder for less, tied to the company for visa reasons, and far less likely to make noise? From a super cold business perspective, the H-1B is simply the safer bet.

And I fully agree with you on Black American talent, ability ain't never been the issue. The real problem is structural: if companies keep chasing the cheaper outsourcing or H-1B route, then those opportunities never even open up. That’s not a talent gap...that’s a business incentive gap.

So the real question isn’t even about whether Americans can do the jobs, it’s whether the system gives companies a reason to actually choose them. That's the elephant in the room so to speak.

But I'ma wait and watch how this rolls out. It ain't about the policy, it's about how companies will respond to it.
