H-1B visa: Trump administration issues major rule change
Moves by administration likely to end up in court, immigration law firm says
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"
