H1-B allowed for the shit canning of American workers in favor of cheap foreign labor. It isn't just the tech industries that profited off the program. The whole economy "profited" because the market manipulators decided making a quick buck was more important than paying employees what they're actually worth.

H1B took 1 in 5 jobs from Americans under the guise of "best and brightest" but it's actually about cheap labor. The program was never supposed to displace american workers but that's exactly what's it's doing and is contributing to the ongoing crisis of americans being unable to afford to buy homes and start families. The cap at 80k a year is being ignored and 800k were brought in last year alone. Elon made the dumb comment about wanting to expand it, and when people brought up the issues he told us to fuck ourselves in the face. Then he started banning people. He then called us retarded and vivek told us american culture sucks. If you don't know what this is all about, you really may want to catch up.
