[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s terrible. If you were born American, with all the privileges that comes with that lottery win, and you STILL can’t compete with people who grew up in war zones, or with food/water/medicine shortages, and who aced their SATs/MCATs/GREs in a SECOND, non-native language, what does that say about you?! 
We shouldn’t artificially be propping up mediocrity, while brilliant foreigners go to the rest of the developed world and bring their skills and intellect elsewhere.

It's about cheap labor not brilliance. This is America and it's all about the dollars. The labor from poor countries is cheaper.[/quote]

This. In the 90s-2010ish there was a shortage of tech talent. The number of STEM, particularly CS , US citizens being pumped out of US colleges was much lower than industry required. Now, schools are packed with STEM majors who are graduating and not finding employment.

Tech companies loved H1Bs because they are so dependent on keeping employment with the company sponsoring them. In boom times, tech companies play a hire to fire game to keep talent away from their competitors. Tech workers hopped around getting higher and higher offers. H1Bs can’t play this game.[/quote]
