Start hiring Americans you (expletive removed)'s, instead of trying to tell Americans they don't have the qualifications so you can hire some foreign POS at 1/3 the pay scale.

I could be wrong, but as far as I know the company must pay the recipient of the visa on the same scale as American citizens or residents would receive in the same position.

Not true, only H1B rule is they have to "attempt to hire an american for 6 months before hiring an H1B employee".. which was NEVER enforced.. I worked for start up after start up that wasn't 6 months old who had H1B's doing jobs I could hire an american for at the drop of a hat, but its cheaper to have the quasi slave labor of the H1B more often than not.... the whole thing is a scam.

And as an additional note to #43, any H1B recepient's spouse and dependent minor children cannot accept employment, but can attend school in the United States.Servants of an H-1B visa holder can receive a B-1 visa. And the idiocy goes on and on.

Yeah right. That's why they were able to replace one me with 3 H1-B's on my last job.

You are wrong. Trust me, I know first hand that they are not paid the same amount.
