Yes, that’s true but isn’t what is happening here. They’re not bringing in H1Bs for their talent, they’re firing US workers so they bring in H1Bs to do the same job, but cheaper.
All well and good but I never mentioned performance. Of course they’re able to do the job, no doubts there. But the bottom line is US companies are firing US workers not because they need to, but because they want an excuse to hire cheaper workers through an immigration program.
There is nothing at all special about a US worker.
Welcome to the world, where people who aren’t from or in the US also need to feed their families, and have just as much a right to do so as Americans do.
