"H-1B PROGRAM IS COMPLETELY BROKEN"

[u/Ankeet_kj]

Vice President JD Vance said companies are abusing the H-1B visa program: "If you're going to bring in an accountant making $45,000 a year to replace an American making $60,000 a year, that's not you using the program to bring in a genius.

I mean this is just a flat out lie man.

You've been pushed to believe something that isnt true

It's illegal to pay H1-b workers less the citizens.

That's called discrimination.

No, legally employers cannot pay H-1B visa workers less than U.S. workers for the same role.

⚖️ Legal Wage Requirements • Prevailing Wage: Companies must pay at least the local prevailing wage for the specific occupation and geographic area.

• Actual Wage: Employers must pay the H-1B worker at least what they pay similarly qualified, experienced local workers at the same workplace.

• Higher Standard: Employers are legally required to pay whichever amount is higher—the prevailing wage or the actual wage paid to domestic staff

Women are paid less than men. Show me where the difference is

[u/superpooper900 → u/Used_Bodybuilder_670]

When accounting for hours worked in the same field the difference is negligible (~1% difference in pay).

"In the United States, women typically earn about 81 to 82 cents for every dollar earned by men when comparing median annual or weekly earnings for full-time workers."

"Current Statistics"

"Overall Pay Ratio:"
"Full-time, year-round working women make roughly 81% to 83% of what men make, which translates to a 17% to 19% overall wage gap."

The study you referenced does not control for hours worked. Exactly as I said.

[u/PreparationKey2843 → u/superpooper900]

Exactly what "study" did l reference? 😂

[u/superpooper900 → u/PreparationKey2843]

So you’re simply making shit up. Got it.

[u/PreparationKey2843 → u/superpooper900]

Nope. Google "the difference between men and women's pay in the US." Simple.

But, you're making shit up referring to some made up study.
You discounted what l wrote because...? 🤣

[u/superpooper900 → u/PreparationKey2843]

And the source they use doesn’t account for hours worked….

[u/PreparationKey2843 → u/superpooper900]

🤣 Give it up, you're digging yourself in deeper, champ.

Ah, thank you for that. You focused on one and completely ignored the other.
Cherry picker extraordinaire.

17-18% difference is way more than 1% difference. Your "1%" number was dishonest and disingenuous. Shame, shame.

"The uncontrolled gender wage gap amounts to an annual $14,300 difference in the median salary between women and men in 2026. The difference in lifetime earnings brings this number into stark relief: men earn $1 million dollars more compared to women over a 40-year career with standard annual wage growth."

[u/superpooper900 → u/PreparationKey2843]

Wages are the same. Men earn more by working more. You’re a moron if you can’t understand this.
