> Elon Musk and others claim there is an engineer shortage and we must increase the number of H-1B visas in order to fill this gap
There is a shortage of engineers who are willing to work cheap, and to be much more tolerant of shitty working conditions because getting fired = getting deported.
Not just cheap, but excessive hours. People like musk don’t want someone that works 8 hours a day and goes home. He wants someone that works and lives to work.
