H1B is a modern day slavery. Think about it, its a VISA given to the employer not an employee. The owner has the right to abandon you at any time and request you to be sent wherever you originate from. Once the H1b Owners abandons its slave he is required to return to his home country or find another master within two weeks.

Now H1B fraud is something that is providing low cost IT labor to the corporations. It is also a labor prostitution. The Dhotis are the pimps, corporations are the customers and the h1b aspirants are the prostitutes. This industry would not survive without all three of them working with each other.

Now, for the corporations, why marry someone if he needs few months of uncommited sex (work), they can use them as much as they want for minimal price(maintained by flooding the h1b market) and throw them out when needed. Also, they can call one labor prostitute and throw them out the same day if they do not like it as opposed to getting rid of a fulltime employee(married one).

Now for the H1b aspirants, they life has been living hell already with 7 years of F1 visa stress, no money, living with 5 annoying roomates, the pressure from Nepal to become a Jagire, and pressure to find a girl to get married with they are willing to take any oppurtunity to take themselves to the next level.

Now for the H1B companies like IBM, there is a huge amount of money to be made in this labor prostition. They can sit on the top, take major cut between their customers (corps) and the H1b pimps and do everything legal from their side with sub contracting. The dhoti on the other hand is going to do all the dirty work and if someone needs to go to jail for h1b fradd (political reason) it will be that filthy dhoti.

Now, what this whole process does is reduces the cost of IT contractors, the direct cost is that the IT contractors are not working year around. If they are making 50K per year and sitting on the bench half of the time they are only getting 25K for year and now this 25K saving is the savings corporations are doing indirectly.

If this country was serious about High Skill labor...then why not give everyone who has a college degree relatedjob a three year work permit, and let the employee himself become the owner of his visa. They can even assign one year at a time visa and each year the employee submits the W2 and the employer letter to renue it.
