It makes economic sense to the fellow workers that are from the first world country. H1B visas etc are mainly a tool used by company founders, CEOs etc to keep wages down.
- pavlov 4y agoWe’re not talking about H1B visas but young adults who have already received an education in the US and are now facing deportation. This makes no sense for the national economy.
- gadders 4y agoI feel for these young people and I hope to get to stay in the country of their choice. As a general point, though, the law of supply and demand applies to labour as it does any other commodity. Maybe net each one of these young people against a proposed H1B slot.

- rhaway84773 4y agoIt’s hilarious that we just had a massive pandemic after which 90% of the discussion on this forum was about how everything can be done remotely now, and you think that American workers need to compete with H1Bs who no longer are competition for them when they remote work from Beijing instead of Hawaii, except, now, potentially at 1/3 the salary (at which they still live much better quality of lives in Beijing than they did in the US). The complete lack of logic of the anti-knowledge worker immigrant position never ceases to amuse me.
- WhiteBlueSkies 4y agoThis is just a fact. If a company can hire someone for cheaper they will. They focus on profits and not on the well being of the country in which they're based.
