Non-issue to me. I've seen the paperwork and delt with the delays companies have to go through to get H1B workers, while they might get to pay them less I doubt there's any actual savings for at least two years. When we were going through all the H1B hell there just weren't any workers from America to fill the spots. And the H1B guys I worked with kicked ass. 3 of the 5 best programmer I've worked with were from India and here on visa. Things are different now that the tech bubble has burst and the number of positions in general has dropped, but now that the bubble has burst I'm still not seeing any prefence for H1Bs. I know that's a big stink issue on FR but I'm just not seeing it.

The H1-B program was a stab in the back to American software engineering. It was designed to lower labor cost and forward the globalist agenda. In retrospect we should have formed unions, protected our jobs and maintained our position of value.

As has been stated earlier on this thread, why are forklift drivers making more than highly educated and skilled engineers?
