This is a news article from PBS NewsHour: "The Bogus High-Tech Worker Shortage: How Guest Workers Lower US Wages" (link here)
This image shows how almost 2/3 of the hires were foreign workers vs. 1/3 local US workers.
The hiring of these foreign workers is great for the hiring companies by keeping the costs/wages down.
But this is a short sighted win because this discourages the number of students going into High-Tech which could be the last bastion of innovation and growth in the US.
