What's the point of comparing the total number of college graduates with H1Bs? The H1B is massively used in one industry while college graduates in aggregate comprise nearly all employment positions.
In Silicon Valley, I'm hearing 50%+ H1B use in almost all companies. This is also my anecdotal experience in companies outside of DOD. If you don't think this gives mgmt. huge leverage over the workers, I've a bridge to sell you.
BTW, 85,000 is not the actual number. Let's not forget all those other visas like L1, the loopholes for universities, etc.
