Too busy trying to push for more and more h1bs

No need for automation.

The visa-worker inflow has been growing since 1990, and it has helped to keep tech worker waves flat since 2009.

The investor-owned Fortune 500 companies, and their pyramids of subcontractors, now employ roughly 1.5 million foreign contract workers in a wide variety of jobs needed by many underemployed and indebted U.S. technology graduates and their families.
