You’re right; H1-Bs are to destroy the livelihoods of white-collar workers in the same manner illegals destroyed many blue-collar workers.
Here in NJ, I’ve dealt with “guest workers” in financial services that were trafficked here from the Philippines. There is no shortage of unemployed Americans with the same (and better) credentials, but the imported “replacement Americans” cost less.
Yes, the purpose of the H1B was to provide employees with skills native citizens did not have, like maintaining obsolete technology and the like...
There is NO way you can justify hiring someone on an H1B visa to write code in Java etc... and not be breaking the law, but they do it every day.
You want to know why the middle class is dying, look no further than Washington. I don’t care which party it is, both are nothing more than tools for the oligarchy. Rubio, Hatch, Flake et al should be ashamed of themselves, but they won’t be, the election last fall was to stop the abuse of government power and obamacare, and right out of the gate they go for screwing over the middle class once again....
Until something or someone cleans the swamp that is DC, on both sides of the isle, there is little chance this nation will ever return to the glory it once had.
