H1-Bs often come as part of a larger package, with their India-based employers (rather than direct US employers) providing outsourcing and development services that also leverage offshore talent.

H1-Bs are more obvious a target for the US labor market, but less significant than offshoring, which really can’t be stopped without killing the golden goose of the global IT market—of which the US has a largely disproportionate share.

You don't "gotta" [use lower-cost international labor to compete in a global market] if that lower-cost international labor is also lower-skill ... which it clearly is, since laid-off Americans are training their Third World replacements (as a condition of getting their severance).

None of what you say is responsive to my post. Why is that?
