The most popular event in the U.S. now is no longer the assassination of Kirk, nor the Fed’s interest rate cuts, but the big visa charges.
Watching the video, some Indians who had already boarded the flight back home, it is said to suddenly receive information, such as sunshine, urgently asking the captain to stop the flight immediately, they want to get off the plane...
Otherwise, they may not return to the United States.
Is it so serious?
Really very serious.
In any case, a number of American companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, have sent emergency notifications to employees: “If you have H-1B status and are in the U.S., even if you have a recent trip plan, please stay in the U.S. temporarily.”
and also,“If you hold H-1B or H-4 status and are outside the United States, please return as soon as possible before the 20th deadline.”
Trump’s 19th paper executive order has completely disrupted the weekend and future of many Americans, Indians, and Chinese.
Because Trump offers a big deal, H-1B visas charge a lot.
To explain here, the H-1B visa, which is considered to be the most important U.S. working visa category, is issued to foreign tech workers employed by U.S. companies, and holders of the H-1B visa can work in the U.S. for three years and can be extended for three more years.
The United States provides about 85,000 H-1B visas every year, of which Indians account for more than 70%. The visa fee is several thousand dollars each, which is usually paid by enterprises.
But now, Trump has a big tail reform, Each H-1B visa costs $100,000 a year.
This does not include the wages and benefits of employees. How many American companies are willing to pay this money!
When price replacement of value becomes the threshold, the removal of talent becomes a simple arithmetic issue.
Anyway, the policy comes out, the circle of immigrants explodes, people on the plane hurry down the plane, people who are not in the United States hurry back to the United States, many company stocks fall, people want to cry without tears.
But what Trump wants is this effect: 1, you can charge a large sum of money; 2, those foreigners, especially Indians, don’t come to steal American jobs.
It's not over yet.
Remember, in February this year, Trump also highlighted the launch of a $5 million Trump Gold Card.
Now, according to the executive decree signed by Trump, the amount of the gold card has been reduced, but more complex is more fun.
Gold is specifically divided into three categories.
The first, personal gold card, you personally pay $ 1 million, through the censorship, you can get permanent residence status in the United States.
The second level, the enterprise gold card, the enterprise pays 2 million US dollars, which can be used by employees, and the key is that it can also be transferred.
Third, you pay $5 million and you can stay in the United States for 270 days a year without paying taxes on your income abroad.
Simply put, American permanent residence has entered the era of "krypton gold game" since then: the more you charge, the better the privilege.
Why do this?
According to Trump, one of the biggest problems in the United States is that those excellent graduates from top academic institutions are expelled from the country once they complete their studies.
Now, he has opened up a new visa channel for these "foreigners with extraordinary abilities and willingness to support the United States".
Trump also boasted that it is expected that the "Trump Gold Card" will soon bring in revenue far exceeding $100 billion. The money will be used to cut taxes, boost economic growth, and repay the national debt.
As the top U.S. broadcaster, Trump is also enthusiastic about the link, telling everyone, “Buy Trump Gold Card now,” and linked to a government website.
From the president to the sales director, the role shifts unhindered, making him the most intelligent leader in American history.
Such a president can make money.
Wealth and opportunity are being re-priced, and the so-called “American Dream” is also becoming a real money transaction.
Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Don't forget that Trump has also publicly asked Intel's new CEO Chen Liuwei to resign immediately, on the grounds that Chen Liuwei has close relations with Chinese companies and there is a "high level (interest) conflict".
And what happened?
Chen did not resign, he went to the White House and talked with Trump.The two sides reached an agreement that the U.S. government would subsidize shares and take about 10% of Intel shares.
Subsequently, Nvidia and others announced their stake in Intel, and Intel's stock price soared.
Trump was delighted and deliberately issued an AI chart where he looked at the price of Intel shares at the White House.The chart shows that the price of Intel shares was $20 when the U.S. government joined and now is $30.
Trump personally kicked off.
Of course, everyone knows that Trump himself doesn’t earn much.
Not long ago, he relished setting a new record. He became the first president in American history to pay two state visits to Britain.
But King Charles of England joked that he had already made a trip to England before his recent state visit.
What to do?
Go to Scotland for your own golf course.
It’s so big, it’s so big, it’s so wealthy.
And, according to Trump’s plans, next year’s G20 summit is scheduled to take place at his Florida golf course.
This time, let world leaders advertise his industry.
That’s not enough, anyway, Trump, Trump’s wife, and Trump’s son, have all issued cryptocurrency tokens, making billions or even tens of billions of dollars at once.
The President personally issued tokens?
Yes, you’re not mistaken, Trump did that, and, I have to say, it’s much faster than doing business.
I saw some Americans regret that Trump has worked hard and worked hard for so many years, probably a fortune of $5 billion, but issuing tokens, the household at least doubled, or even several.
We are wealthy, we are not wealthy, we are not wealthy.
Finally what do you think?
Let's make three superficial points.
First, the United States has a Trump, a new face.
This means of making money is absolutely unprecedented.
Of course, Trump's yearning for making money is seen by the whole world.
So that King Charles of England met him, and had fun with him, this land of England was suitable for high-grade golf courses.
South Korean President Lee also joked when he met him in May, saying, “I’m looking forward to you building the Trump building in North Korea and playing golf there ... he’s definitely waiting for you.”
Not to mention, Trump just initiated that Qatar would immediately donate a $400 million Boeing jet to be used as Trump’s Air Force One.
It's just that Qatar probably regrets it now. The big plane was sent away, but the United States stabbed in the back and gave Israel the green light to bomb the capital Doha.
This is probably the real version of the "seven days without reason" of international politics: gifts are accepted, things are handled, but the ultimate interpretation belongs to the United States.
Second, although it is very profitable, the debt is still a cup of water salary.
Although Trump can earn a lot, it should be noted that the US debt is now terribly higher.
In August, the U.S. government debt hit $37 trillion five years earlier than expected, equivalent to 126.8% of U.S. GDP.
37 trillion, the highest astronomical figure in history.
Regardless of the silver card, gold card, platinum card, even if you can really collect back $ 100 billion, $ 200 billion, compared to such a high state debt, the feeling can be ignored.
So, Musk regretted, “The US government is basically not saved.”
Why?
Because "look at our outrageously high national debt, the interest expense alone exceeds the (Pentagon's) budget and it keeps climbing."
Trump, you rob the east wall and make up the west wall, but the hole is too big to make up. What's more, some of them may be mainly their own holes.
Third, the Indians are anxious, and America loves you not easily.
Going back to the beginning of this post, a lot of Indians do fall into extreme anxiety.
Previously, they were the pets of the H-1B; now, Trump is a precision sniper, to drive them back to India.
Whether to continue to rely on the United States as a second-class citizen, or to proactively return to the homeland, the Indians estimate is also thinking.
Of course, there are also people who regret that Trump is stupid!
What is most precious in the 21st century?
The man!
But Trump, when you raise money, has driven the world’s talent out of the United States.
In the short term, the United States will definitely not make less money; But in the long run, has the United States lost or gained?
Do not forget, the flow of talent, always is the wind direction of the country transportation. heaven and earth English talent entered into my chest, that is, the Tang Ta'a Song Li world people; heaven and earth money into my backpack, that is, the United States of America.
In the past, the United States was the peak of the country, many people looked at the United States, adore the United States, expect to enter the United States; who knows, the United States has made a green card business, no money, no money you do not want to enter.
When a country begins to clearly price her dreams, her charm becomes a calculable commodity.
