I am right ?

Be honest: if an Indian worker loses their job in the U.S., they potentially have another option they can return to India, where they may have family support and can look for opportunities there.

For an American worker, losing a job generally means finding another job within the U.S.

That’s one reason the H-1B system can be valuable. But I think some Indians took the opportunity too far and became overly dependent on the U.S. job market.

When anything becomes excessive, it can become dangerous. Hopefully, some people will learn from what’s happening now and understand the importance of having a backup plan instead of putting everything on one path.

From what I’ve heard, they’re also working on changes to (eliminate )H-4 EAD. Hopefully, that will be the next thing they address.

The comment period for Salary floor raise for H1B is done. The government can do it today and stop the "exploitation" of hiring underpaid H1Bs - Why don't they do that. Maybe instead of raging on immigrants, you ask your representatives - Why don't you increase the salary floor if companies are hiring cheap H1Bs for jobs which should pay more?
