Well, some of our inglourious Congressers are trying to screw over
American workers again with another H1-B visa push (HR 5744) to make
sure wages and job security disappear for Americans. They claim a
shortage even as they drive Americans out of tech fields by importing
H1-B visas!
This time, it's some scumbag called Shadegg (
http://johnshadegg.house.gov/contact/ ) who's behind it -

What I didn't know until recently is that many, probably most, H1-B
visas aren't even paying taxes - their paid in their home countries,
given "allowances" that are tax exempt, etc. You can read the gory
details at http://www.vdare.com/pb/h1b.htm .
That's right, not only are they undercutting you with H1-B's, you have
to pay extra taxes to make up for the ones these guys aren't paying!
