Detroit Area Sweatshops that Exploit Foreigners
How the System Works
American corporations may be unknowingly doing business with tech services companies that underpay and otherwise mistreat workers. One example of alleged wrongdoing:
THE WORKER
Indian software programmer Prasad Nair moved to the U.S. in 2008 on a work visa. He claims he was offered a job in Michigan at a salary of $60,000, plus medical insurance and travel expenses.
THE SPONSOR
United Business Technologies in Troy, Mich., sponsored Nair's visa, but, he claims, forced him to sign a new contract requiring him to pay visa and travel costs. UBT denies any wrongdoing.
THE STAFFING AGENCY
UBT sent Nair to a tech services outfit, Larsen & Toubro Infotech, to find him a job. Larsen & Toubro, which is not accused of any wrongdoing, declined to comment for this story.
THE CLIENT
Larsen & Toubro placed Nair in a job in the San Diego offices of tech giant Qualcomm. He claims UBT, his official employer, paid him less than the prevailing wage. UBT has countersued Nair for failure to give proper notice when he quit and for defamation. Qualcomm and Larsen & Toubro are not accused of any wrongdoing.

Legal Visa Holders deserve protection under our laws.
I don't think it is right for visa holders to be mis-treated by employers.
Illegals get what they deserve because they are criminals that have violated our laws.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Just an example of why big business wants all these visas. It's not just about low end jobs that "Americans won't do". It's also about high end jobs that employers don't want to pay competitive wages to. Which enables the colleges in their drive to help the immigrant, illegal or otherwise, over an American born student.

Hey Obama! Why did you bail out the auto industry, when you could have sent in a bunch of visa holders instead.
