And you are all-seeing? The evidence that it happens has been posted.

No, the assumptions, half-truths, and straw-men have been posted.

Nothing that has been posted PROVES by EVIDENCE that this is a major problem or even a problem that a large minority of businesses are involved in.

I am sure that some companies are abusing the H1-B process, I do believe it is possible for corporations to lie about their "need" of H1-Bs, however, there is no evidence that it is a wide-spread issue, or even a large minority of companies taking part in this type of behavior.

Depends on how high you want to set the bar for standard of evidence. I think there's as much evidence for a significant H-1B abuse problem in the tech industry as there is for, say, a significant unsafe-practice problem in the abortuary 'industry' ... even though most abortuaries have not been shown by direct evidence to have unsafe practices.
