I had been processing I9 candidates on the average of six to ten a day at our center. I9 is the H-1B code and the majority were from Infosys. They were either from Pakistan or India and were going to Microsoft.
“Look at what all that cheap foreign labor did for Microsoft.
“They were the biggest tech giant on the planet; controlled practically 95% of the operating systems in home and office, - then missed out on all of the major tech developments of the 21st century ( revamped search engines, digital music, smartphones, tablets, social media ).”

Sky, you misrepresented the I-9 Form a little bit.
All new hires, including USA citizens, must complete an I-9.
Basically, you just sign a statement, under risk of perjury, that you are authorized to work in the USA.
You have to present documents, which your new employer photocopies, that “confirm” your identity, like a drivers license.
And, you must “confirm” your lawful right to live and work in the USA, with documents like a USA passport, Green Card, Work Visa, etc.
