Do you think BBC's new 24 hour news channel will change things?

Does Hillary support an increase in the number of H1-b visas? Does she support enforcing the rules around the use of H1-b visas?

"Happiness is a choice." That is the best nugget of truth I have read so far on this board. It was the hardest one for me to learn and to accept. I wasn't happy not because of the amount of money I made, the wife I had, the promotion I was passed up on, or the business that failed; those things happen to everyone. It was because I never knew how to look at the positive side of things; I only saw failure even when everyone else saw success. You need to choose to be positive and to be positive is to be happy.

I think this administration has shown us how completing an Ivy League education signifies a privileged upbringing much more than any innate intelligence. I believe this was always the case, but it is much more obvious with these fools.

If the majority wanted it to stop they would have done so by now. The majority is not sure what to do and therefore allowing the minorities to take control through there indecision. I therefore hold the WHOLE population accountable on both sides, regardless as to whether a "small minority of people" are creating the issues. I feel the same way about the United States. The United States elected this current administration twice and therefore ALL the citizens of the United States are accountable for its actions.

If you are curious, I am a citizen of the United States born in the beautiful state of New Jersey.
