I understand the current corporate-speak re: the “need’ for H1-B workers; they are so embedded in tech that it’s impossible to reverse direction. I have nothing against H1-B workers; they are smart and work hard. That said, when the H1-B trend began in tech, 10’s of thousands of qualified American workers were pushed out of jobs because H1-B workers were cheaper.
I think you forgot some math in that math of yours. You lack the percentage aspect and it should be percentage of US based companies by state not by the whole country (though the latter might be of interest to some most people are interested in what’s going on in their state)
Ah, so it’s a “secret” stab at California?
terrible ad-riden site. definitely not beautiful data
There’s an exemption, at the discretion of the President.
Guess who’s going to be exempt?
Providing of course they purchased enough of his cryptocurrency, or whatever it is that he’s selling this week.
Billionaire CEO’s have been using the H1-B visa program to suppress American wages and line their pockets with the profit.
The H1-B program was intended to bring in talent that Americans were not available to do, but instead has been used as nothing more than to import cheap labor and improve profit margin at the expense of American jobs.
I applaud Trump for sticking it to the billionaires for once and doing something good for the American worker.
Ah yes, another population map of the US.
Its strange that not one US university is listed there.
Title is wrong. This shows absolute numbers
‘As a percentage’ – and shows no percentages.
The percentage breakdown is further down in the article:
It’s a sort of corporate tax. But it promotes a domestic workforce at the expense of immigrants. It might be beautifully in the middle of the American political landscape. My calculation is that it won’t amount to 5ish percent of Amazons yearly revenue, that would be paid out over a three year h1b term. I think the best approach is to tie the visa tax to the salary of the position?
So basically “states with industries that require unique, highly skilled labor”.
