Quote ~ "one of the other Ukrainians (one I sponsored elsewhere) found an entry level job and her salary is $100,000. "

Skilled immigrant working in USA. What's the problem?

Yeah, that’s worse. They took hosting AND a job away from someone.

If you buy a can of soup at the grocery store, are you taking it away from someone?

If you see someone buy a can of soup in front of you, would you tell them they are taking that can of soup away from you or would you just buy the next can of soup?

Soup isn’t housing. But if I didn’t have any soup and someone imported a Ukrainian and they bought the last can of soup on the shelf, I would be upset.

So this was the last job in existence? Why does it matter to you that it is someone from Ukraine?
