Yes ... but why don’t these huge international corporations just pay the foreigners to do the same work in the foreigners’ own countries (mostly that means Communist China but also some from India and other Asian nations).
Wages in those places are still lower than what the corps are paying the foreigners to do the work now, here.
(And both Apple and Google are paying out zillions of $$$ just for super-sized new buildings in SillyCon Valley, etc... just to house (and as you point out, feed) all these foreigners here

NO, it does not make economic sense for the corps to be importing more and more of the Asian workers when the corps could get the same work from the very same workers in Asia

There HAS to be more to this story... its not all about H-1b visas... yes, to some degree but there has to be a lot more about this story, imho

thanks

Maybe it is as simple as the desire of a sociopath to enjoy seeing his victim suffer by participating in his own misery, not JUST make them suffer but be able to feel good about themselves afterwards. (Trivial example: if a worker is told to train his own replacement or be fired immediately, then he is being forced to participate in something undesirable even if not evil.)

This is the same sociopathic mindset that had the original Obamacare bill have a provision that every person's monthly insurance bill would be required to have a separate line paying $1 to be given to abortion providers like Planned Parenthood.

The idea in all such cases is to force you to be complicit in evil. That's what they really enjoy!
