1) STEM is a term so board to be nonsensical in this context.
2) There may be some self-imposed "shortage" but that doesn't mean anything. Anyone can come up with a job with qualifications impossible to meet. Especially if this is a fake [1] job opening created solely so you can say "shortage!"

Who is really being dishonest?
- mavelikara 11y agoIMO, there is plenty of dishonesty going around, from both sides of this argument: A) "H-1B are the best and brightest of the world!" B) "H-1B is only about hiring cheaper programers!" Looking at the publicly available H-1B data, it is pretty clear (to me, at least) that both these arguments are caricatures - some truth, but huge exaggerations. Everyone who holds on tight to one extreme of this spectrum, vociferously arguing against the existence of other cases look dishonest to me.
- dalke 11y agoCongratulations on constructing two straw men so you can polarize the discussion, declare "a pox on both their houses" and position yourself as the moderate. That's a refreshing new technique that irritates no one.
