A network of universities selling fake degrees is now under investigation with one university allegedly selling 36,000+ fake degrees

Assuming these numbers are correct, it only shows us in bad light rather than the applicants. It is our job to keep the trash out of the country. We willingly let them in and run riot. Then we had our CEOs call them geniuses.

We look bad.

The next question is what are we doing about it? Trump is working behind the scenes and every day I see on social media people posting about leaving the US. Things could be faster but I guess there is movement. The housing crash in DFW area is also a side effect. The same thing will happen in SF, Seattle, Atlanta.

This is simplistic thinking.
There is no way you can bring in so many foreigners without it impacting the local culture. No way.
Consider a country which allows 0.1% foreigners versus a country which allows 20% foreign. Which has its culture destroyed? Both are legal immigration. Answer is simple, when you are in the 20%, why the hell would you want to assimilate? You just form your own ghetto and live like you did earlier.

I have spoken to him a few times, never liked him, he was one cold arrogant sob.

Economic gain in exchange for cultural decay was the long game. Trump is attempting to combat that.

It's very simple. Just assimilate and produce and you are welcome.

If not, eventually, the country will collapse. Good Trump.

True, but the ghettos, be they Cuban, German, Italian, Irish, Chinese, etc., typically are first and second-generation happenings.

Per the Google:

Quote:

---

Ethnic Enclaves (Voluntary): Often formed by choice, these are vibrant communities where newcomers settle to share a native language, find familiar food, and rely on co-ethnic business networks for jobs and housing. Historically, areas like New York's Little Italy or Miami's Little Havana provided a foundational stepping stone that helped immigrants integrate and build wealth.


Why the Phenomenon Occurs

Immigrants naturally cluster together for several practical reasons: [1]
[ol]

Cultural Comfort: Living near others from the same homeland provides a vital emotional support system in an otherwise foreign environment.

Economic Survival: Newcomers often lack the language skills or legal credentials required in the broader job market. Enclaves allow them to work for co-ethnic business owners who share their language and culture

Protection: Clustered living offers safety in numbers against hostility or discrimination from the native-born population

[/ol]

---

Interestingly enough, when it comes to the 3rd reason, seeing as how many act and speak about the Indians, and really, every and any non-white Christian that moves into their communities, in this or any country, it's really no surprise.

Now, here comes the good news per the Google:

Quote:

---

Sociologists generally rely on the "Three-Generation Model" of spatial and cultural assimilation, which dictates that it takes three generationsfrom the original immigrant to their grandchildrenfor a family to completely move out of an ethnic enclave and blend into the broader community.

---

So, just give it time, and our grandkids will be besties, dating, marrying, and baby-making with the grandchildren of the Indians who are here thanks to H1-B Visas.

Just give it time.

Trump has gotten his House and Senate to make sure ICE gets all the money they need, and private companies can prosper more than ever through his business dealings that help them. Because of that, there's no reason he can't get this done, assuming he wants to. With the Tech Bros in his ears, though, that's not as much a certainty as I would think it would be if they weren't.

Here's to hoping.

Are we going to see ghost towns near Dallas full of new abandoned houses once owned by H1Bs who have left?

This house is in Mansfield, TX — right in the area where they’re building the new Costco and super close to the lake at the end of town.

Strict HOA neighborhood, but the yard is completely overgrown. Landscaper business cards still stacked on the door.

I just don't buy that this is attributable to an H1B visa shift. Per grok slop;

Quote:

Yes, foreclosure filings and activity in North Texas (primarily the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, including Collin, Dallas, Denton, and Tarrant counties) have been increasing in 2026 compared to recent prior years, reaching six-year highs in some metrics.

Key recent data points include:

• In the first four months of 2026, more than 2,700 properties in those four core North Texas counties had foreclosure filings nearly a third (~32%) more than the same period in 2025.
• April 2026 filings in D-FW rose 28.3% year-over-year (vs. a national increase of 17.8%). The D-FW rate was about 1 filing per 3,421 housing units, slightly better than the U.S. average of 1 per 3,388.1
• Increases have been especially sharp in suburban counties like Collin (+44%) and Denton (+180%) in early 2026.
• Texas as a state has ranked among the leaders in foreclosure starts nationally (e.g., over 10,000 in Q1 2026), with D-FW contributing significantly (e.g., ~2,427 starts in Q1).

This continues a broader national trend of rising foreclosures from pandemic-era lows, with U.S. activity up in filings, starts, and completions through early 2026 (though still far below 2008 crisis levels).

Why is this happening?
Experts attribute it mainly to affordability pressures rather than a broad housing crash:

• Higher borrowing costs, inflation, rising property taxes/insurance, and household budget strains.
• Newer homeowners (often those who bought in 20222024 at peak prices with higher rates or adjustable-rate mortgages) are most affected; many earlier owners have substantial equity and can sell instead.
• Normalization after pandemic moratoriums and assistance programs.

Activity remains low historically and is viewed as market normalization, not systemic distress. Strong equity in North Texas homes often allows alternatives to full foreclosure.

Trends can shift with interest rates, job market conditions, or economic factors.

---

Anyone buying/mortgaging an $800K house over 30 years at current/recent mortgage rates without a substantial downpayment over 50% would be subject to rapidly losing the home if job situation changes, and this is more common in new-build neighborhoods where the tract home builder provides incentives like closing costs etc.

Tend to agree with you. Seems too good to be true and considering the fact that Americans mostly live paycheck to paycheck and above their means it's far more likely these are people who bought too much house.

I think it is many factors. H1Bs don't think in terms of going back to their own countries, especially if they are from India. The plan is to get a perm residency and then citizenship. So going by past years and some older friends, they buy houses keeping in mind current salaries. Both spouses typically work so mortgage is not a problem. The problem comes when one or both get laid off and has to go back in 60 days else they become illegal and can never come back again. Since the job market esp in tech is terrible, this is quite common. They have no option but to panic sell as large house payments are not possible with no income. Besides, what is the point anyway, if they have to leave and go, they figure it is best to just abandon and leave. That is why I believe towns in and around Frisco which had a glut of H1B purchases are now struggling and will have more abandoned properties.

I would contest that. Inflation is hitting people in the middle; I see it a lot less at the upper end in my line of work. Plenty of people buying and building at the $1.0MM+ range and the bottom, with people in the middle getting squeezed.

True. There's just a fairly natural upper bound on spending, so at some income level you're indifferent.

Someone who can afford a $1.0MM house is a little more indifferent to insurance and tax increases, spread out over 12 months, and inflation. Assuming they cook at home, what's the cost increase of groceries relative to income when compared to the bottom half? Shrug.

When the rich (real wealth, not just having six-figure salaries) keep getting richer, companies and certain segments of the economy don't genuinely care if money is not coming in from the Middle (upper down to lower) class. It's being more than made up for them by the rich.

The middle class has always gotten screwed, but before, companies, including the housing sector, would try to adjust. Not because they felt badly for them, but because money was being lost when the middle class had less.

Now, they don't even give the middle class a second thought. They're making more money now more than ever, and that's with a hurting middle class.

They are going to take our IT jobs with them. The latest scam our Corporations are running in terms of layoffs is rebadging US employees to Indian companies like Infosys so they don't have to give severance pay to longterm IT employees when laying them off. You get to keep your job and work for Infosys for a few months (3 to 6 mos maybe at possibly a lower salary) while training your Indian replacements and then you get let go with no severance pay or nowhere near the severance you would have gotten paid had you not been rebadged to the Indian company. It's a win win for the US Corporation, they get a cheaper India based employee and force you to train them while even paying you a possibly lower salary to keep your job for a few months more, and they don't have to give you a huge severance check if that was part of your original employment agreement.

Going to see a lot of that rebadging in the next year or 2 I would bet unless congress makes strictor labor laws and outsourcing taxes or rules to prevent it...US Corporations are going to figure out a way to keep their cheaper Indian slaves one way or the other even if they are doing it in a totally corrupt way and hosiing US employees.

Case in point...I saw on LinkedIn that Southwest Airlines opened up a new "Innovation Center" in India. So, instead of hiring American IT workers or dealing with H1Bs, they have wholly outsourced their IT to India and built a subsidiary company over there. An airline that barely flies beyond the Caribbean.

As if India has "innovated" anything, ever. lol. It's one large coding sweatshop who have to be told 110% exact requirements or it won't work correctly or as innovators in this country designed.

House prices are going down because indians are moving out

Also indians are cheap labor who could afford those expensive houses

Make it make sense. Actually, dont

Only solution is to tax these US corps into Bolivian and establish rules without gray areas and if the corp breaks them, jail the CEO.

Only CEO sent to prison will work as a deterrent. Not fining.

I have no idea why we have this culture of bending over to corporations while they loot us. This is what "we are capitalists" brainwashing has done to us, we see this even on this board which is full of intelligent Aggies (I hope) who can think for themselves. Corps have to work for society and society has to work with corps in a symbiotic nature. Not like a parasite that these corps are where they want to use US resources but not contribute back to society effectively killing the society it is in.

That's not a fair characterization of Roy's bill, imho.

Congressional strategy on H-1B reform:

✓ Introduce bill

✓ Issue press release

✓ Post on social media

✓ Collect likes

✓ Never hold a vote

Repeat.

There are now at least 10 major H-1B/OPT reform bills sitting in Congress.

Yes, but I misspoke in my post above. I had to rush to a meeting so I didn't read what I had typed. What I meant to say is that someone had posted a list of the pols who had brought in non-serious bills on this to get publicity and did not bother to push it later on.

I posted the tweet that shows the bills, I found that again some time later.

But your response is correct, it is the entire Congress that is totally incompetent and working for their own benefit and that of foreign entities. They don't care about Americans.

Chip Roy is making a lot of noise on this and he was on Sara Gonzales show I believe. Let's see what results he shows. People on twitter are openly trashing USCIS, DOL and other orgs which claim progress and results. One of these orgs was boasting that we now will bring in the best and brightest, those with US degrees like Masters and PhD. Unfortunately the days of people impressed with that are over and now we know there are diploma mills that print out degrees for you even in the US.

Not so fast.
Some liberal judge called Trump's 100k fee as illegal so if that stands then the H1Bs will be back in full force to reclaim their houses in the DFW area.

I think Trump has a few other tricks up his sleeve though. Come to think of it. Lutnick has disappeared after he made a fool of himself on national TV by claiming the 100k fee was annual. Turns out it was not (maybe Trump TACO'ed, no one knows).
Interesting times we live in.
