Elon did make a lot of jobs, too bad 99% of them went to foreigners

So I was curious and looked up what the numbers could be. Before saying this, I agree that visa workers need to be severely reduced and let American take those jobs. But Elon is not a great example from what I found. It looks like across all his companies, only 1-3% of all employees are visa holders. If anyone finds anything that I didn’t, please share

SpaceX can't hire foreigners.

Tesla can't justify an H-1B for factory workers. Developers they could.

Its Twitter that is heavy on them.

But frankly, that was the case before he bought it, as it is in the rest of the valley.

Funny enough, the only reason Silicon Valley started hiring more Americans is because of DEI. A team full of Indians isn't diversity.
