Yeah and your assuming that you can keep a skilled coder out of systems when he has physical access, good luck with that.
Is this the same guy that hosed their brake systems? lol
I hear that.. Out-Sourcing is BS.
...The only x-factor here is the pay. If a company wants to bring someone in on an H-1B, then they should have to prove that there are no US citizens who can do the job.
H-1Bs are a way for companies to basically hire indentured services at low low prices at the expense of both American jobs and the dignity and humanity of those they bring over.
yes clearly we should pay programmers with college degrees and such minimum wage
Minimum wage in America probably beats the hell out of what they'd make in their own country.
Your friends may be among the best at what they do, but I find it hard to believe that there's no one else in America who can do the job just as well or better. The only x-factor here is the pay. If a company wants to bring someone in on an H-1B, then they should have to prove that there are no US citizens who can do the job.
Seeing as the company they work for is still actively hiring and having trouble filling the positions - no, not really. Quality skilled workers are hard to come by.
An H-1B isn't necessarily cheaper for the company. The company still has to pay for the H-1B, and the person working under the H-1B still pays all the same taxes including social security. So if person A is willing to do a job for $40/hr, and person B is willing to do it for $20/hr - then person A is over charging. This is capitalism, pure and simple.
It is crony capitalism, not true capitalism. In this case, the corporation uses the threat of violence from the state (in the form of forcible deportation and relocation if they loose their job) to discourage things like asking for a raise or asking for better working conditions.
