Excerpts of Bill Gates testifying to the Senate. Bill Gates was the only one to be invited to Sen. Kennedy's March 7, 2007 hearing on "competitiveness". The kowtowing Senators and Bill Gates make for quite a show. Gates uses the stage to make the case for lower corporate tax cuts, more student visas so that foreign students can come to our schools and to stay here and work after they graduate, and for an infinite number of H-1B visas so that a flood of computer/IT and engineers can replace more expensive American workers.
Bill Gates used a not so subtle form of blackmail to bully the Senators. He threatened to offshore more jobs if he doesn't get tax breaks, increased copyright protection, and more H-1B visas.
Bill Gates says American workers have to learn to compete in the global economy while at the same time he uses monopolistic practices to crush Microsoft's competition. The richest man in the world doesn’t have a problem with forcing American workers into global labor arbitrage with cheap labor from countries like India. He wants to be richer and he is willing to do this on the back of the Americans that built Microsoft.
