Has it been proven? Where?
Did you even look at your link? Looking at [1] only two H1B employees received a wage offer of less than 103k, and in 2013 only one (Database administrator) received under 100k. In every single case the prevailing wage on the application was lower than the wage offer.

- akiselev 12y agoIn this world, where San Francisco is but a tiny city in a country of more than 300 million people and job offers are 30-50% above national prevailing wage.
- selmnoo 12y ago> job offers are 30-50% above national prevailing wage. Making $70k in some midwestern city will get you a better house, better access to education for your children, and generally better quality of life than what $200k will get you in the Valley. I know people who've lived in both worlds tell me exactly this. So, having offers at 30-50% is not a good thing, it's a bad thing. It should be much higher than that.
- vonmoltke 12y agoWhat does the "national prevailing wage" have to do with the "prevailing wage for a software developer in SF", which is what I was talking about? San Francisco is a tiny city, and I am only talking about San Francisco since that is where the job I linked to is located.
