U.S. Tech Workers The Economist Data are available to everyone: 99.9% (all!) of the H-1B approvals by US Department of labor require no recruitment of American workers Anyone (i.e. The Economist ) is full of it to claim otherwise. Check yourself if you don't believe me: dol.gov/agencies/eta/f…

This desperation is easily monetized. This is why the H-1B is so popular because it provides labor that is willing to work for much less in exchange for immigration benefits.

Looking forward to stepping aboard the Caravan tonight!

Immigration advocates: “We need more skilled-based immigration to beat China in the innovation race.” CEO of Apple: “We promise to invest in China to help them win the innovation race.”

Karthik Anant Except you don't respect the immigration law. You knowingly game the system using #H1B by making multiple registrations and used fake jobs / experiences, practice racist hiring to promote your ethnic group, which flooded immigration system and ruined many Americans' careers.
