Fucking aye, yes. In my area they want to pay $10/hr for people who have 5 years experience in IT because they can get someone with an H1B. Then half the fucking gas stations have nothing but Indians employed. Pick one or the other God damn it, I'm just trying to pay my bills at this point.

They're also buying up motels. The Patel clan in particular. It's creepy as fuck to see the country being taken over this way.

Another issue I foresee becoming a bigger problem is inflation of qualifications on resumes. As the Pateels one up the local competitors, the local competition will one up the Pateels. The problem is Pajeet lies incessantly on resumes, and a cursory glance at resume with a small phone call can confirm that 99.9% of the shit written on that paper is bullshit. So now the local competition is having to compete against lies and corruption, and the company gives no shits, because they turn a blind eye. I have also noticed that a lot of companies are paying absolute shit for senior engineers, Team Leads, etc. I'm pretty sure there's collusion going on, because i find it highly unlikely that 7+ different companies all "happen" to have the exact same pay band. Even with negotiations, you may be looking at a 5-7% pay bump, but not more than that.
