I guess you could stop calling it abuse at that point, but h1b participants are coming here for better opportunities which I think will often mean they are willing to work for much less than an American. Not saying whether this is good or bad, but I think this is the real target of the current administration, to make sure Americans are getting these jobs before immigrants.
- davidw 10y agoIt's a good thing that programming work is very difficult to ship over, say, the internet to other countries where they'll do it for cheaper, or have friendlier immigration policies (Canada for instance). Truth be told, I'm actually not that concerned. The pool of good programmers, even worldwide, is not that big, and as a decent programmer, I don't feel threatened by some companies going for the absolute cheapest people they can get. I figure they'll get what they pay for and things will work out in the end.
