H-1B essentially is a high tech worker.

It’s a visa they give to foreigners who they think have training in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM). IT is ‘information technology”, one aspect of the STEM category. They come to our country and take American jobs even though we have huge numbers of workers trained in those areas.

They are desired because they take half the pay that the market is paying. First, their ‘degrees’ are suspect. Second, their “English” certifications are a joke.

H-1B is a program to make all indigenous STEM workers unemployed by importing foreigners as indentured servants to do their job at 60% of the prevailing wage. Once these foreigners get their green card and some do become US citizens then they vote Democrat.
