WSJ Post on H1B reduces US worker wages -> https://archive.ph/f8bOk#selection-4423.12-4423.212

A new research paper on the effects of the H-1B visa program on workers suggests the influx of skilled foreign workers has historically led to lower wages and employment for American tech workers.[/quote]

There are few jobs more portable than tech jobs.

Either we import the talent or they export the job.[/quote]

BS if the job can be done from home, it can be done anywhere. [/quote]

If they can do it from India why can't we do it from home?[/quote]

In my experience in tech, a lot of the stuff outsourced to India ends up costing as much or more because corners were cut, requirements were misunderstood, things need to be fixed and done over, etc.

Clearly, corporate heads don't care about quality; they care about profit.  They don't care that the lowly minions have to deal with crap work product.  As long as costs are cut, profits are up, they are happy.

Don't blame the immigrants or the foreign workers. Blame the greedy corporate execs, who also kiss up to Trump for favorable laws.[/quote]
