Yes, because they would like to be competitive with companies that set up outside the US and can hire cheaper workers.
Why should an American get paid more for doing the same exact thing as a foreign worker? Why should I subsidize that?
Now, look at neighborhoods where illegals live in large numbers.
Illegals? They are illegal. This is about H-1B visas...you don't see such flouting of the law in that category, do you?
Nobody said free-market means that anyone can ignore all other laws.
No, they want to pay American workers less.
This is about H-1B visas...you don't see such flouting of the law in that category, do you?
Once again - the H-1B visa is to be used when there is a SHORTAGE of workers. That is not the case now, unless you haven't quite realized that there are five million unemployed at the moment.
And beyond that, I saw plenty of nonsense firsthand by companies playing games with the requirements for hiring H-1B visa holders.
And my original point stands - when portions of American shrink to third-world status, will you show your committment to free labor markets by moving to one of those neighborhoods?
I didn't think so.
Some of us see there is more to this issue than finding the cheapest labor. We have a country to try and preserve.
