I wonder how many of these jobs will be taken by American's and how many will be taken by foreigners with the H-1B guest worker visa's.
Especially India.

I know a very talented Canadian programmer who is here on an H1B. His employer is damn lucky to have him - all their other good engineers have left. He can't, because he's on an H1B, so he'd have to find another new sponsor, too.
Sad because he's the kind of person we WANT coming here - if anyone should get legal residency standing it should be a guy like him, not an illegal alien fruit-picker.
