It sounds like you’re saying the job market imploded in the last five years. In that case, it seems like we should halt h1b visas until it recovers.

Maybe it’s different for you. I hire people I have to work with, so I am going to do whatever it takes to make sure I get good candidates. I can’t imagine a better possible use of my time.

In tech, yes. In general I don't know and not all h1b's are tech

Same, but that doesn't mean I'm going to do the work someone upstream from me has already done again
