It appears as though Silicon Valley isn’t too impressed with American techies trained in American schools.

And they expect illegal wetbacks from Mexico and Central America to fill the tech gap? Geee, who would have thunk it?
Agreed that schools are not encouraging/training students for tech careers.
However,I just think there are many unemployed legal, US citizens who could be hired or retrained...
I think the tech giants don’t want to have to pay competitive wage. Are not workers here on H-1B visas beholden to the company that is sponsoring them?
Silicon Valley wants cheap labor. Americans invented everything that made Silicon Valley great. The Bill Gateses of the world got theirs and now they want labor on the cheap - exactly like the railroad barons of the Gilded Age who pulled in cheap labor from around the world. If you know history those a$$holes were in tight with the government too. The difference now is that today’s a$$holes are operating in a welfare state with a fiat currency which means they can transfer the costs onto taxpayers. Americans after the Civil War often hated the railroads. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
If they’re like Millennial “I won’t work 9-5” on the other thread frankly I don ‘t blame them.
