“We have plenty of very talented tech workers in the US. Many of them have had to train their H-1B replacements.”
How about a source?
The number of American students taking engineering classes is dropping every year. Our kids are just not capable of the math required because they don’t get the foundation in high school.
And ask any employer about the work ethic of the American student these days. They are taught all about entitlement in liberal-run schools.
And I seriously doubt anyone has had to train their replacement in a high tech job - if anyone is laid off in something somewhat sensitive, they are let go immediately so they do not do any damage or take any sensitive material with them. Provide a source, other than some bleeding-heart blog.

But reports have surfaced that the replacements are happening at an alarming rate. And former Southern California Edison workers have complained to lawmakers that they were replaced by less-skilled workers at lower costs.
Anonymous workers who were displaced by the visa holders also submitted written testimonials to lawmakers detailing their firings. Several claimed they were forced to train their replacements, and threatened with losing their severance if they did not.
“We had no choice in this,” one anonymous worker who claimed to have been one of those let go from Southern California Edison, said in a letter. The worker described how when the two vendors were picked – Infosys and TCS, both major Indian companies – SCE employees were told to “sit with, video chat or do whatever was needed to teach them our systems.”
I had to train my replacement. How is that for a source?
I don’t doubt that young kiddos are a mess. My son is finishing his science education, top of his class, working in a paid internship that supports his education.
There are several openings where he is doing his internship. He tells his classmates - no one will work.
But, I fear his future. Because I have first hand experience what these H-1B replacements are doing.
