Thanks for the post! I can't believe how many companies in Seattle use H1-Bs. I had to narrow down my criteria as I maxed out the number of responses.

It's a known fact that MOST of the money that these workers make goes back to their families at home. This removes that money from the US economy. There is an estimated 1 million H1-B computer professionals in this country. If we take an average pay of $80,000 a year for a US worker, then that equates to $80 BILLION a year leaving the US economy. And people wonder why things aren't good with the stock market...

You wouldn't believe how many companys use illegals. It's a miracle American citizens have any job at all.
