H-1Bs are a form of wage suppression. They claim they can&#x27;t find workers to work in STEM but what they can&#x27;t find is workers who are willing to take massive pay cuts.<p>So, instead, they hold foreigners hostage (in all but the most literal sense) with poor wages and the &quot;promise&quot; of citizenship eventually.<p>No one wins - except of course the megacorps.

Why? What is their motivation in offering this? It is not altruistic.
