Quelle surprise

American law is as stable as a house of cards when half the country would rather base the law on presumptions of what 18th century white supremacists might have preferred to the needs of Americans in the 21st century…

He’s a fascist dictator, not a communist one. And when the ‘titans of industry’ care more about their bottom line than democratic principles, that’s a sign to rally against them, not frame one’s argument with an echo of McCarthyism.

Edited it again to avoid implying that they’re not underpaid, as the billions in profits that those companies make is certainly exorbitant.

I’d prefer to be living in a liberal democracy than in a xenophobic, conservative, fascist state is all.

Trapping hard-working H-1B immigrants—who are already (relative to American citizens without a visa at stake) in a weak bargaining position regarding salary increases—in the country unless their employers pay a $100,000 bribe is such a despicable thing to do.

Edit: As a reply pointed out, the law mandates that such employees be paid at par with other employees. Despite this, the dependence on the benevolence of one’s employer to remain in the country, in addition to the filing fees associated with any job transfer, already puts such employees at an inherent disadvantage.

Good thing they don’t believe in evolution either, or they would see the political Darwinism of geriatric MAGA voters not only being less likely to survive COVID, but also less likely to take any protective measures against it whatsoever.
