Meanwhile M$ begging for more H1-B's !!
And is the same company who is claiming it can't find the right people??

Idling contracted workers and then claiming it has a labor shortage?

And let's not forget that Microsoft's Chairman Bill Gates, the RICHEST PERSON in the WORLD, is the PRINCIPLE ACTOR behind the latest SCAM currently being debated in the US Senate.

Senate Bill S.2611, (Illegal Immmigrant Amnesty bill), whose current text will increase the importation of H1-B's to absurd levels, forever !!

No more quota resets to a lower annual H1-B caps. It also adds at least one new major loophole. The H1-B numbers will just keep on going up and up. A never ending flood of foriegn tech workers.

If this bill passes, I estimate the current 130K/yr levels will increase to 210K in fy 2007, and 230K in fy 2008.

Compenstation for US tech jobs will continue to remain flat or continue dropping. Mega corps will keep in firing US citizens and hiring cheap foreign workers.

Yup, M$ is out to kill what's left of your tech careers. Call your representatives NOW, otherwise you kiss what's left of your tech career Goodbye!

Speak now, of suffer the consequences of remaining silent!!
