A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

H1B Visa workforce is the wave of the future. The Sociopathic Oligarchs are angling to create "Freedom Zones" where they will build their new facilities, complete with living facilities for their foreign workers. They will operate independent of government regulations of any kind. Skum is already working on it.

It's literally how they use foreign workers in Arab countries. They usually use Indians or Filipinos, barely pay them, and strictly limit their personal agency. It's literally slavery.

It's coming to America. We can always pick fruit.

Christ. Yeah Ive seen the chinese shacks next to a 40 story luxury building. They barely treat them as animals let alone human.

I've seen it when passing thru Dubai.

Very hard to be team human when you see what we do to our own.
