The push for H1B visas is about nothing more or less than creating millions of new cubicle slaves, both foreign [because they can't go anywhere else] and domestic [because if they squawk, they'll be replaced by cut-rate third-worlders.] H1B is a lose-lose proposition for everyone but the fattest of the fat cats.
Amen !
