H-1B allows companies to keep their operations stateside. Without it they could just outsource tech operations to overseas. This is so stupid. I guess to his base this makes Trump look tough on immigration.

H-1B allows companies to keep wages low, benefits absent, income remitted to home country.

@FearlessFly They're not going to pay Americans more, they'll just move the jobs overseas.

@barjoe Then put the burden on the companies to make that less in their favor, not on workers.

@FearlessFly I agree. I'm against outsourcing. They should sanction that. Some H-1B workers are paid well though, there are just shortages in certain fields.

@barjoe "there are just shortages in certain fields" -- according to the employers 😛

@FearlessFly The problem I have with it is they don't pay taxes.

@barjoe "it" , "they" -- kinda ambiguous 😮

@FearlessFly it= H-1B they= foreigners

@barjoe "they don't pay taxes"
