DHS Raids Social Security System and Zaps U.S. Workers – Again

DHS Raids Social Security System and Zaps U.S. Workers – Again: "The Department of Homeland Security has – yet again – decided to raid the Social Security Trust Fund and shoulder aside American college graduates from good jobs, as it announced today a twist on the use of the F-1 student visa to aid big business.

That, of course, was not the way the DHS publicists shaped their press release, which was, headed, innocuously:

ICE announces expanded list of science, technology, engineering and math degree programs Qualifies eligible graduates to extend their post-graduate training

It sounds like ICE is a university, offering courses to post-graduate students.

Maybe that's what ICE wanted you to believe, but what has happened, without congressional approval, is that the agency has decided to take presumably hundreds of millions of dollars from the Social Security Trust Fund, and to allow big business to save money by hiring recent foreign college grads, rather than hiring U.S. ones."
