Foreign nationals now outnumber Americans in high-paying, high-skilled, white-collar jobs in Silicon Valley, California – the hub of the United States tech industry.
Silicon Valley Leadership Group President Carl Guardino touted the statistic in a report, revealing that 57 out of every 100 jobs in Silicon Valley that require at least a bachelor’s degree are taken by a foreign-born resident.
The revelation comes as President Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, has led an initiative to increase educational funding of the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields while ignoring the issue of mass immigration and multiple visa programs that have led to Americans being replaced by foreign nationals.
For instance, Ivanka helped secure $200 million of the Department of Education’s grant funds towards STEM fields, Breitbart News reported.
At the same time, Ivanka endorsed a plan to give amnesty to illegal aliens who have been shielded under a President Obama-created temporary amnesty program. Such an amnesty would have the potential to lead to a chain migration whereby between 9.9 million and 19 million foreign nationals enter the U.S. over the next few decades, further crowding out Americans from the workforce.
The growing foreign-born population taking jobs in Silicon Valley comes as nearly 500,000 Americans graduate in the STEM fields every year who are forced to compete with a booming foreign-born population in the U.S. and foreign workers who are imported by outsourcing firms and major tech conglomerates.
For example, the H-1B visa, which brings more than 100,000 foreign workers to the U.S. every year, has been used quietly by tech giants like Microsoft, Google, and Facebook to import a cheaper, foreign workforce, as Breitbart News reported. The H-1B visa allows for Americans to be displaced from their white-collar jobs, and sometimes they are even forced to train their foreign replacements as a stipulation of their severance.
Every year, more than 1.5 million illegal and legal immigrants are admitted to the U.S., with the current foreign-born population booming to an unprecedented high of roughly 44 million individuals. Mass immigration to the U.S. has been at the expense of American workers in the working and middle-class who have been forced to compete with foreign labor while their wages have remained stagnant.

I don’t know why they keep saying foreign as if there is a great pool of people from many nations. It is Indians. I’ve worked with non Indian Asians twice, ever. There are some Mexican IT staff starting to creep in. But, I don’t mind them. They aren’t arrogant and have the same work ethic and ethics , in general, that we Americans do. The Indians are destroying the industry, just as they do every industry. Their culture is deceitful, arrogant and have poor work ethic. They will see d days figuring out how to do things the wrong and lazy way rather than research and do things the right way. Corporations have been cutting their own throats for years by being penny wise and pound foolish hiring these incompetent assholes. I have worked with a few Indians that were good people and competent. However most competent Indians stay in India. They send their dullards here to rape us of our wealth and offload those that would drain their economy onto us. This is an easy fix. Stop all preferential foreign hiring. Require that an American be hired first. If the company cannot find a competent American after 90 days then allow an H1B hire. This would strain corporations enough that waiting the 90 days could put projects in jeopardy.
‘It is Indians’………you are spot on Samuel…..I retired from the ‘health’ care system in 2009 but even then there was an influx of Indians infiltrating the system taking over as directors and administrators in every department whether academic or clinical
These foriegn nationals are getting paid shit wages, they’re living in cars and trailers on the side of the road, while working in upscale neighborhoods. They join gyms for only the shower facilities.
This is the price they paid for working with the commies. Rents in their area is upwards of 3500.00 per month for a two bedroom shithole.
