Most of the tech workers from India are junior engineers but are locked to one company and relatively cheap. I work with lots of them. Some
simple tasks takes these "highly skilled" engineers 2-3 days when it should really be 1/2 a day job.
If you follow the class action lawsuit, against Google, Yahoo, Apple and Ebay there are emails which show tech executive agreeing not to
poach(allow the free market to set wages) top talent.
The unemployment rate of American born engineers is high. Top it off alot of the Indians think Americans are to lazy hence so few in engineering.
If there had been a union for tech workers it could have pushed hard against the massive replacement of American of skilled labour. Ann
Eshoo(House Representative) is a BIG supporter of the H1B1 visas.

Imported cheap labor with fake degrees from fly by night colleges.

And these ARE LEGAL IMMIGRANTS !!
Why do the MSM falsely describe ILLEGAL ALIENS as IMMIGRANTS ( undocumented) while never mention these LEGAL IMMIGRANTS as
LEGAL??

It would be interesting what the wages are for those high tech immigrant workers. Are they working for lower wages than an American high tech
worker can, given the huge the American high student debt?

Dual citizenship is treason •
.....Our country is controlled by the .0001% But everyone reading this already knew that part . That said they just keep us fighting amongst
ourselves all the while they do as they please !
