This is a common example of a symptom of the larger problem. Your ability to sponsor that H1B allowed you to hire at an artificially low price. The only reason your company thought 60-65k was reasonable is because of the access to those people without a normal American standard of living.

Americans are being forced to compete against people with lower standards and costs of living. These immigrants are eventually going to become used to the higher quality of life that the US can provide, then they will also demand a higher salary and be replaced with a new immigrant. Where does it end?

It's a self destructive cycle and the only way to stop it is for our leaders in public office to tell the corporations a big fat resounding NO.

We need leaders in public office that are capable of and willing to look at the big picture decades into the future and understand for long term stability and to stabilize the labor market, someone needs to tell these corporations a big fat NO.

If we allow more flooding of foreign workers, we will create lost generations of American workers with no hope whatsoever.
