The '''H-1B''' program brings into the [[United States]] hundreds of thousands of workers from foreign nations at lower wages and restrictions on job mobility.  This program keeps real income for Americans from increasing, particularly in high-tech fields.

  −
There are conceptual similarities between the H-1B program and the unsuccessful [[indentured servant]] program used in colonial [[Virginia]], particularly [[Jamestown]], in the early 1600s.  But there are no shortage of American workers today, while there was in Jamestown in 1607, so the H-1B program is little more than the enrichment of large companies at the expense of American workers.

Large companies like [[Microsoft]] push hard for the H-1B program, and for expanding it, despite its negative effect on American workers.
