What more someone from a totally different state. </p><p>The visa gets them in, and there is some exploitation (in other ways than wages); but they aren’t the reason why ‘Americans’ aren’t getting these jobs. They’re the symptom, not the cause. </p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Immigration</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/H1B" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H1B</span></a></p>

Adrianna Tan<p>I don't care about your political beliefs: if your plan for 'improving legal immigration' is 'restricting the H-1B cap' and restricting rights of immigrants, instead of advocating for their rights and against employers, you are not a good ally.</p><p>You are an unsafe person who is okay with causing great harm to Americans and immigrants alike, who has fallen for a nativist lie.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/H1B" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H1B</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Immigration</span></a></p>
Ben Toh<p>If I were the evil billionaire owner of a company, I would simply outsource the works to developing countries, instead of going through the troubles of trying to get a <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/H1B" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H1B</span></a> worker to come onboard in the US. Spoiler alert: they have been doing that lol... (12/12)</p>
Ben Toh<p>Bottom line is, employers can't control if you win <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/H1B" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H1B</span></a> lottery, and they do pay quite a lot of money to get a H1B worker on board. There are safeguards, but this doesn't mean we can't be exploited. But if you mistreated me, I can also just leave, it's a two-way thing. I don't feel treated as a low-cost slave in the US. There are limitations and scary legal things but perhaps as a migrant worker I completely expected that. (11/12)</p>
Ben Toh<p>This is why you might hear stories of how the company would apply a green card for <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/H1B" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H1B</span></a> folks, but often they wait till the end of your H1B validity period (6 years) to do so... to be fair, if say the employer helps you to get a green card in year 1, and you get it, there's nothing to stop you from leaving the company.
