Glad this is coming out. During the Obama administration, they created a little known program called the H-1B visa program that fast tracked computer educated people, especially from the middle east. These people were sponsored by the federal government to get access to the US and computer jobs with major companies ahead of local citizens. To my knowledge, over 85,000 were brought in in 2016 alone.

That’s a lot of employment used up and with the unemployed US citizens falling off the end of the insurance and still not having a job, that could, on paper, erase an entire state’s employment problems showing increased jobs the public would think is within the US and not outsourced. Smoke and mirrors.

The H-1B Visa program has been around for decades, it's what tech companies use and abuse to hire foreign nationals at lower wages to replace American workers.
