The government would toss me out a job if someone else wants to come in the country that can make them more money. It feels pointless to stay pledged to one country when someone from another country can just get an H-1B visa and take your job in a matter of months.
- conanbatt 7y agoYou are confusing the government with your employer. Also, you would also be out of a job if all the tools you use as a programmer would have to be made by americans and not imported from cheap overseas labor.
- jimbob45 7y agoH-1B is a government program. They are the ones that decide if it stays or goes. The employer has no choice but to use the program if they wish to not fall behind their competitors.
- conanbatt 7y agoUnder your model it is you who is now employed by the government at the expense of your employer. Your employer wants to hire someone else but cant, so the government is preventing both your employer and this other person to work together. A priviledge is not a right.
