HOLY CRAP 🚨: Abby Phillip: “I do think the H-1B program needs some attention. It needs some degree of reform.” Kevin O’Leary: “Abby, do you want the next Einstein to come to America or Shanghai?” Abby Phillip: “I’m not fighting against an H-1B visa, folks. I’m the daughter of... immigrants. Both of my parents are naturalized citizens of this country... There are real concerns that people have about companies that abuse the system.” Kevin O’Leary: “We’re talking about genius, bringing 65K genius to America.” Abby Phillip: “Kevin, you know it’s not just genius. Sometimes they’re abusing the system and bringing in medium to low wage workers [to replace Americans].”show more

I never thought agreeing with Abbey would be in my bingo card

@kevinolearytv must be somewhat intelligent but if he thinks every single person brought in on H1B is a “genius,” he is retarded. He is incredibly wrong. Are there a few, sure. Most are abusing a system and filling jobs Americans are VERY capable of doing.

For once I agree with Abby.

You don't hate the fraud known as Kevin O'Leary enough.

Bizarro world. O’Leary being disingenuous about H-1B workers doesn’t surprise me considering his companies probably exploits them. I am certain he knows the difference between O-1 and H-1B visas. But to hear this kind of reality from Abby Phillip is refreshing.

I feel like she made argument just to argue with Kevin and I'm surprised to agree with her.

These idiots don't know the actual system and how much nepotistic hiring and scheming takes place. A software developer making $110,000 is not a GENIUS but they are sucking up a job their Indian buddy got them from a qualified American.

O’Leary is a snake oil salesman

now Kevin leary is the enemy and cnn hosts are correct, what the fuck is going on

Bozo @kevinolearytv let the third worlders develop their own countries we have unemployed American geniuses. 🤡

@kevinolearytv is a delusional idiot.. H1Bs have stolen 7 million jobs from Americans!! Increase housing costs n welfare!!

Oleary is a moron

So all the hotels being owned and staffed by Indians and all the gas stations too are super geniuses? What a lie and I mean every gas station from rural areas to big cities and every hotel.

@CoreyWriting If they’re geniuses why aren’t they on the O1? If they’re geniuses why are they doing Citrix admin support in the back office as a contractor?

Lol, first of all, Shanghai isn't taking Indians. They don't import third world talent.

Lol. 65K geniuses from India and other 3rd World Shit-holes. Kevin just wants as close to slave labor as he can legally get

FYI: They're mocking you all; that's the skit.

Can’t believe that dummy is making me Agree with Abby.

Yep, I agree with Abby. Hard topic to discuss, especially if you work in IT like myself. The problem isn't opening the door for these workers, the problem is the companies that are sloppy bringing them in. IMO 3 of 10 are valuable. Kevin using the word "genius" is reckless.

Patriot.

Rare Abby W

Kevin O'Leary deserves a shovel in the back of his head for advocating the replacement of American Workers. Complete faggot.

I think on Reddit, they'd call this particular situation "leopards eating their face".

Kevin O’Leary: “Abby, do you want the next Einstein to come to America or Shanghai?” Shanghai.

O'Leary is a Canadian shitbag sociopath who would be the first to auction every morning if there was a slave trade. All he cares about is money.

There’s not a bigger fucking faggot around than Kevin O’Leary.

I can't tell if Kevin is just an ignoramus, or if he's egregious. EB-1's are for "genius" folks. I've helped arrange 1-2 of these kinds of visas for very niche fields, i.e. computational mathematics for 5-axes movement systems with volatile compounds. H-1B's are COMPLETELY different, and require almost nothing to prove.

Kevin O'Leary should go to jail for life, along with anyone else whos abused immigration to make money at the cost of Americans.

Holy fuck Kevin showing his true colors

Ummm Biden did that

Kevin O'Leary knows he's wrong, he's just a sociopath. The other guy is just a total moron. Also, you don't need to be a genius to work at Meta or Microsoft 🤣. Holy shit lmao.

Republicans letting Democrats outflank them on immigration 🫠

Holy cow some Dems are finally circling back to Bernie Sanders's position a decade ago

Abby is correct.

The H1B visa isn't for geniuses. It's highly skilled professionals. It's almost like there is another visa for that which is uncapped with no lottery. H1B visas are still important, and should be used to fill legitimate needed shortfalls, but this isn't a strong argument for it.
