H1B employees being exploited works in Murica's favor. It means American companies are more competitive at the expense of some Rajesh from Chennai. This is something Trump should love.
Even if American companies are paying lower wages I don't see the problem. It helps American companies make more profit and lower prices for American consumers. Something that we all must cheer.
Some people argue that it lowers the wages of neo-native people. It is good too. We all would love a cheaper electrician, cheaper plumber, cheaper burger flipper, cheaper doctor what is so wrong with cheaper coder ? It benefits the entire society.
- reddytowns 10y agoIf Rajesh from Chennai is sending all his money back to Chennai, Americans won't have the funds to benefit from the lower prices. You can see a just released Hollywood movie in the theatre for $3 in Indonesia, that doesn't mean it's better to live there.

If Rajesh sends the money back to Chennai it will very likely increase the value of money for Americans which affects the poorest of poor in a very good way. I would however worry more about Rajesh maxing out his credit cards and then catching flight to India. :P
