This issue concerns IT workers of all ages. And an increasing number of young people are choosing IT majors.
The problem is that, not only are foreign workers imported here to take IT jobs, but also many jobs are exported to other countries.

Laura’s point was that foreign tech workers aren’t smarter than American tech workers; they’re just willing to work for less.
Aren’t you tired of American companies shipping jobs overseas? And bringing in foreign workers to replace American workers?
I voted for Trump and will vote for him again. Some of us just wish he’d see this issue for what it really is.
Yes, I am tired of everything that you mentioned.
I also can’t fault a company for wanting to hire someone who was not indoctrinated in America.
I don’t know that I agree with Laura’s point that foreign workers aren’t smarter.
It may be that they are smarter and are willing to work for less.
If everyone opts for an education in IT this country will cease to exist.
Plumbers, electricians, welders and many other neede vocations/professions can easily earn ~$75-100k a year and they wont have huge student debts.
I admit I’m an oldster, but I believe it’s wrong to push so many towards IT jobs, as only a few will make the big bucks, while the rest will become little more than clerks in the industry.
