You are being priced out by design.While you pay 7.65% FICA on every dollar, foreign graduates on STEM OPT pay 0% for years.THE MATH: (Same Salary, Different Rules)$200k Example:>YOU: $200,000 - $13,818 FICA = $186,182>THEM: $200,000 - $0 FICA = $200,0003-Year Advantage: $41,454 (20% down payment)$80k Example:>YOU: $80,000 - $6,120 FICA = $73,880>THEM: $80,000 - $0 FICA = $80,0003-Year Advantage: $18,360 (Car + debt freedom)THE SCALE:>100 workers = $4.1 MILLION in tax-free buying power.They systematically outbid locals on starter homes.THE PROOF:They openly discuss avoiding FICA: "skip applying to avoid fica?" / "Just don't file it and save"The Foreign Worker ‘Loophole’ That Gives Corporations a Generous Tax Breakhttp://archive.today/2025.10.27-184922/https://www.newsweek.com/student-visas-stem-opt-jobs-immigration-tax-loophole-2117914The FICA exemption for F-1 OPT students (including many Indian STEM grads) means neither they nor employers pay the 15.3% payroll tax (split 7.65% each) for up to 5 yearshttps://xcancel.com/grok/status/1957873276153393307This is the core of "legal" replacement. Not border jumpers, but a subsidized managerial class buying your future with your own tax money.How is this not systemic warfare against the American middle class?
>>520345341THEY BRAG ABOUT THE LOOPHOLE:Foreign worker: "skip applying to avoid fica?"Response: "Just don't file it and save"They see your mandatory taxes as an optional nuisance.https://www.teamblind.com/post/got-h1b-in-first-year-skip-applying-to-avoid-fica-p3w52rnv
>>520345359ENTITLED MINDSET:Foreign worker: "Ask for RAISE to cover my new taxes?"Response: "Don't mention FICA... ask based on performance"They expect employers to offset the cost of finally paying their fair share.https://www.reddit.com/r/h1b/comments/1cmqwc0/salary_increase_because_fica_taxes/
>>520345395THE REAL INVASION:"Illegals" = distraction (they take service jobs)"Legals" = replacement (they take your career + house with tax advantages)This is financial warfare. Your compliance funds your own displacement.
>>520345432THE HOUSING MATH:Remove the ~765,000 Indian H1B/OPT households (many multi-family)You instantly free up nearly a million housing units.They aren't just "competing." They're operating with a state-sponsored financial advantage that makes fair competition impossible.The solution is simple. The political will is nonexistent.
>>520345462THE WEAPONIZED PIPELINE:F1 Student -> OPT -> CPT -> H1B -> GreencardThis isn't an immigration system. It's a state-sanctioned replacement program designed to bypass and outcompete the native population.They don't come to assimilate. They come to occupy.Shut down the tap. No more "legals." The concept is a lie to make the invasion palatable.

>>520345341It’s all so disgusting. It really is enraging.
>>520345395they should settle for nothing like good goys and people who are too chickenshit to get into a fight, right?
>>520347142That feeling in your gut is the correct one. The disgust is the appropriate response to being told you're a "racist" for noticing you're being fiscally dismantled and replaced by a state-subsidized competitor.Never let them numb you to it. That rage is the only sane reaction to a system that hates you.
>>520347245Interesting how quickly the "guest" workers show their true colors when their financial privilege is questioned.You're here on a visa, living in our country, posting under our flag, while openly mocking the citizens whose tax laws you exploit.You're right about one thing: it's a fight. And you've been winning because you're playing by different rules.If you want to be here so badly, the terms need to change. Retroactive FICA taxes. Higher visa fees to offset the advantage. Priority for American workers, not just the cheapest, most compliant ones.You don't get to game our system, outbid us for our homes, and then lecture us about "fighting." You're not an equal competitor; you're a subsidized replacement.The fact that you feel this entitled to lecture natives in their own country proves the entire point of the thread.
>>520345341>Trying to explain payroll taxes to a bunch of jeets, niggers, bots, and autists who have never had a job much less attempted to hire someone.Good luck with this thread.
>>520345341All that and no guns
>>520348113This thread is about the $41,454 tax advantage that subsidizes your replacement. It's about the $4.1 million in collective buying power that prices you out of your own housing market.You call people "autists" for understanding basic arithmetic that you'd rather ignore. You're not here to debate; you're here to discourage and distract.The fact that you're trying so hard to shut this down only proves you're terrified of people seeing the truth. You can't explain the numbers, so you just call names.Stay on topic. The math doesn't lie, even if you wish it did.
>>520348174>All that and no gunsThey can throw infinite bodies at any problem.
