India Thinks People are Something to Trade - Wants to Take U.S. to WTO over Guest Worker Visas

India insists people are something to trade and since India doesn't like U.S. law, they believe they can sue the United States and override our immigration laws via the WTO. Yes, that's right, they want to drag the United States in front of the WTO over the increases in H-1B and L-1 Guest worker Visas fees:

India may drag the United States to the World Trade Organization , or WTO, over its decision to raise professional visa fees for an extended period and impose a 2% import levy on goods and services sold to the US government, a senior official has said.

India thinks displacing American workers is "trade" and the U.S. is "protectionist"

This is pretty incredible. India believes displacing American workers with imported Indian ones is somehow a trade issue. Slave trade maybe.

According to AFP, India is thinking of challenging the fact a nation gets to control it's own immigration policy, along with the very notion that somehow giving U.S. jobs away to foreign nations, is something the WTO would rule against the United States on.
