In Disney's case, the qualified American workers were already on the job.

Disney did not fire it's U.S. IT workers and replace them with H-1Bs. They outsourced their IT functions to an outside vendor and fired their IT workers. It was the outside vendor who hired the H-1Bs.

From the article:


HCL America, a branch of a global company based in Noida, India, won a contract with Disney in 2012. In a statement, the company said details of the agreement were confidential. “As a company, we work very closely with the U.S. Department of Labor and strictly adhere to all visa guidelines and requirements to be complied with,” it said.

You think Disney didn't know exactly what was going to happen when they chose an Indian company? Do you think Disney can hide behind this arm's-length transaction to avoid accountability for worker-laundering? What would it be called if Disney funnelled cash through a foreign company instead?

“Disney did not fire it’s U.S. IT workers and replace them with H-1Bs. They outsourced their IT functions to an outside vendor and fired their IT workers.”

I didn’t have a hamburger. I had a fried ground beef sandwich on a Kaiser roll.
