All H1B was ever about was driving wages down to ‘equalize’ us globally.

There is no job in America that someone won’t do. It’s all a matter of paying them. H1B scuttles market/employment/wage values by introducing artificially (to the American economy) low wage illegals to benefit profit. The free market is no longer free when the rules get changed like that. It is now the ‘manipulated’ market.

Econ 101.

Many posters here neglect to consider that the labor market is manipulated at all levels of employment by a wide variety of 'guest worker visas' and illegals. Yes H-1B's overstay and morph into illegal status.

As a bonus most guest workers / illegals come from socialist countries and are quite comfortable with big government subsidizing their income and vote leftist.

Many guest workers come in under special tax arrangements and pay no or next to no taxes on their wages. Their educations were generally free, often on the US tax payers dime.

Many illegals have no moral problem with using multiple aliases and outright fraud when partaking of our safety net.
