Bannon calls Silicon Valley an apartheid state exploiting underpaid H1B workers, demands a total moratorium and deportation of H1B holders in favor of American citizens, and insists everything must revolve around citizenship rights.
- American citizenship should work like Roman citizenship—a special deal that comes with real obligations and privileges.
- H1B visa programs shouldn't work unless they benefit American citizens first.
- Silicon Valley is an apartheid state with no Black or Hispanic workers, filled with South Asians working as indentured servants for a third to half the wages.
- Tim challenges anyone to show him one H1B worker with better education or skills than an available American—they can't produce a single example.
- These aren't high-skilled workers; they're mass programmers brought in cheap to boost corporate margins and stock prices.
- Americans won't accept low wages and have the grit and tenacity to speak up about working conditions—the same qualities that won World War II and the Cold War.
- Tim calls for a total moratorium on foreign worker visas and immediate deportation of all H1B holders, with every job given to Americans within 60 days.
- Capitalists and oligarchs want lower wages and more malleable populations, and you have to go to extremes to change it.
- Tech oligarchs had no interest in supporting Trump when his policies raised blue-collar wages faster than white-collar ones.
- These wealthy oligarchs don't volunteer to defend the country; they go to the Pentagon for fat contracts to leech off the nation.
