The fact is you can develop from anywhere in the world if you have an Internet connection. Thats not true of machining titanium, or stamping steel, or refining oil, or even growing pineapples.
But all we need are guest workers or illegal aliens to machine titanium stamp steel, refine oil, or grow food.
H-1B visas are not confined to IT; job titles include, but are not restricted to: MAINTENANCE REPAIRER, SHOP FOREMAN, ADVERTISING-PROMOTION MANAGER, DENTAL TECHNICIAN, HEAD DIRECTIONAL RIG OPERATOR, ELECTROPLATING SPECIALIST, CHEF - KITCHENMANAGER, DIRECTOR OF PARALEGAL PROGRAM, MECHANICAL ENGINEER, HIGH FASHION MODEL, CHILD CARE TEACHER, REGISTERED NURSE, COLORIST, PRESCHOOL TEACHER, WATCH REPAIR, YACHT STEWARDESS, URBAN AND REGIONAL PLANNER, TEACHER, RESEARCH WRITER,MECHANIC, GREENHOUSE CROP GROWER, ELECTRICAL ENGINEER, DIESEL MECHANIC, SOCIAL WORKER, SOUND ENGINEER, LOAN OFFICER, MECHANICAL TECHNICIAN, PHARMACIST, ORTHODONTICLABORATORYTECHNOLO, HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGER, TENNIS DIRECTOR, GEMOLOGIST/DIAMOND GRADER.
These job titles were copy and pasted from H-1B records for 2005; hence the capital letters. I used 2005 because the data base of record was handy. Only ~ 1/4 of the H-1B's were for IT job codes.
