USCIS is challenging an unusually large number of H-1B applications
I deeply understand the need for H-1B&#x27;s for bringing in highly talented individuals. However, I can&#x27;t stand how the argument seems to completely ignore the Americans who are displaced because of abuse of the H-1B system.<p>It seems a bit deceitful to paint this story solely through the lens of &quot;immigrants&quot; while lots of Americans are being directly replaced by H-1B workers.<p>I do not expect to go to another country and displace local workers. I do not expect to be granted a work visa in a place that I do not belong. If I go to another country to work, I expect to be providing a skill or talent that is not present in the local economy. Further more, I expect that I&#x27;d be teaching that skill to others. Or at the very least, be in the position to lead the growth and development of a team until a local worker can do my role.<p>Why should we expect any different from the H-1B&#x27;s that the US grants?
