just saying, h1b usually have about 2 months of unemployment since being fired. Not great, but not a single day either.
your statement about social welfare is reality for Indian h1bs. They will never be able to get a green card, and yet pay all the taxes for them. 8% of your salary is pretty steep for something you can't touch, ever.

Maybe you are right because we could never find a legal source of truth for this info. The point is, we have to leave everything. If you have kids, car, school for kids, house everything goes out.
