I think it describes it nicely:
interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association, typically to the advantage of both.
As someone who's been a salaried employee for over 30 yrs, I don't think I've ever witnessed the abuse you're claiming. Not that it doesn't happen, but then nothing is keeping those employees from leaving when it does.
we are all immigrants
Baby, I was born this way.
That may be the fully burdened cost of one, but not a salary.
135,991 in were issued in FY2012
Actually, they do. It's just that the one you hear most often in the media is not. The BLS does report those numbers though.
f you seriously think the current American workforce can fill the positions that many of the H1-B Visas are taking, you have not been involved in any significant tech hiring in the last few years. My company is only moderately competitive and we have been almost totally unable to find competent engineers to hire in the last year...
You're delusional. I frequently am involved in hiring for one of the largest engineering firms in the country, and we we usually end up with multiple candidates for positions. If you need H1-Bs, you're just trying to get cheap labor, or flat out not posting jobs. Your comment is utter bullshit.
Classic AC troll reasoning.

Nobody said anything about them being buddies except you. But, you can't beat corporations into the ground, and expect that it's good for the country. Figuring out what the best tax rate is to get corporations to provide the most jobs and products, and have the best GNP possible is an example of what was meant. Government can work with business, but must always have the final say.
I'd be fine with it if it were automated. But if it requires more government workers, I'm generally opposed. I've been around enough government slugs to know that most of them are just glorified welfare recipients.
I'm with the parent on this, graduating 8 yrs earlier, learning metric in Detroit public schools. If your schools were worse than Detroit's, you really should get a refund of your tax dollars.
If you can't do the conversion in your head, you need to turn in your geek card.
Are you familiar with the difference between hourly and salaried employees? Professionals aren't clock watchers. There are plenty of laws on the books to cover this.
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
