H1B is supposed to be for employees who bring unique skills that are rare in the workforce. In other words they are not meant to take any jobs from citizens. They are not meant to allow for paying lower salaries.

Disney and LA DWP seem to be gaming the system.

Perhaps Carly can recall the ruin of Lucent, HP and Compaq.
30,000 America workers lost their jobs under her tenure.

“I can’t remember exactly” is just avoiding a lie or admitting that Fiorina fired American workers and replaced them with H1B. After 30K American jobs lost, good she got fired. She probably couldn’t win election as a dog catcher.

Sounds like some parsing and nuancing.

She may not have asked American workers to train foreign workers, but she did hire H-1b. So, were American workers available? Were the H-1bs hired for less than comparable American workers would have made?

Ole horseface is not worth discussing. She’s just the short-lived canon fodder thrown at the Trump fortress by the elite. They’re desperate.

“Did we ask American workers to train foreign workers with H-1b visas so that we can pay them less and lay them off?” she said on the Howie Carr radio show Wednesday. “The answer is most definitely no.” — carly f.

according to this vid, they did have to train their own replacements.

For all the hysteria of Trump in the presidency, red button and all, how would you like to have Ms. Smarty Pants behaving as a shrew scowling down upon America.

Really friendly to snark out your question, then seize the damn thing back again and answer it with acid.

I believe we need a program to bring in high skilled workers but government should make it prohibitively expensive to do this so that the company is motivated to look within the United States for a person with the skill they need.

“But there were some particular jobs where we needed particular sets of skills, where we were growing a particular business.”

Who knew HP had some tomatoes that needed harvesting?

If we really need the H-1B and if it has nothing to do with wages then the why not auction them off?

Divide the yearly allocation (60 thousand plus) into 12 monthly batches and offer them to 'desperate' companies. Employers claim that it is desperation for 'hard to find skills' that drives H-1B use, so surely they would be willing bid up the price of the visa the same way they would bid up wages if truly desperate.

The shrieking if such a scheme were offered would put pay to the 'cannot find' lie.

Over 300 million Americans and these companies cannot find anyone except overseas? At a lower price of course.
