An anonymous reader writes: I'm saying this as an immigrant living here — these parasites are destroying American workers and trapping immigrant workers in wage slavery.
They rig the lottery by filing up multiple sometimes even 80 applications for one fake candidate. They flood the system with fraudulent submissions to guarantee wins.
There were 15,500 fraudulent applications last year, over 52% were complete lies.
American workers get fired after training their own replacements. Immigrant workers get trapped at $65K for $120K jobs with no escape route.
Both groups get destroyed by the same scam while consultancies get rich.
The employer applies for the H1B visa, so they hold complete power over the worker. If you leave the job, you have 30 days to find another employer willing to sponsor you or go back to your home country.
This creates modern indentured servitude where workers can't negotiate or quit.
