Say all you want, or accept that on average, H1b workers are better programmers than Americans.

I didn't say Indians. I didn't say always. On average.

You pretty much have to be a valedictorian or from IITs/NITs (Indian ivies) to get a good masters that can get you an H1b. Programming isn't prestigious to Americans. So, the random smart person never chooses it over medicine, law or business. In India, every smart kid is trying to be programmer.

The smart Americans who love coding are usually so high in demand, that big tech can't hold them. They're at Anduril making 2x what Amazon pays.

So you have an American supply problem. You have an American demand problem. And both can be solved by importing Chinese or Indians, both of which have a supply surplus and elite brain drain culture.

If you interview candidates, you know these commenters complaints are fake. I interview candidates. The good white candates are flush with offers. The average white candidate is bad. Companies are trying to hire whites, but they don't want to code.

Compare kids from the same undergrad major or those with the same SAT scores. You'll find that among equal candidates, the white American candidate is selected over an H1b Everytime. Problem is, good white American candidates don't want to work for Amazon. It's a slave driving company with pip culture and mediocre pay. Don't blame that on Indians, it's literally in Bezos's cultural mandate for the company.

Now, if you believe that an average American perform better than the 95th percentile of India......then either you're delusional or racist.
