Doesn't matter. Companies still want to hire them and kick out US workers. They must be doing something right (work more hours for way less pay).

The market for CS and programmers is over-saturated. New graduates are having a hard time. Any company hiring H1-B visa holders now is doing it solely to undermine wages. There's plenty of domestic talent for most positions in that field.
+100 - go on LinkedIn and any tech job has over 200 applicants. Good luck getting a job. If you're older, you need to reskill if you lose your job. There is no training anymore. You will not even get called. Good luck making it to Medicare. McDonalds is looking good.
Many companies have robust operations in other countries. No need to hire anyone here or bring others here. If the work can be done from home in the US, and doesn't require US citizenship, then the job can be shipped overseas. This is no longer confined to tech. They have great managers, PMPs, accountants, etc. over there, too, at a fraction of the price.

I cannot believe this is even an argument. People are so dumb.

But they sure showed them libruls!
It won't hurt me and we "libruls" can just sit back and enjoy our popcorn and watch the MAGAS scrounge and eke out their pitiful lives while Trump's oligarchy screws them over and over and over and over and over and over for four unbelievably miserable years of abject poverty.
The two of you need to learn how to pronounce and spell "liberals." Your attempt at humor and putdowns fails.
