Why don't you just tell these people to stop whining?

It sounds like you have a cushy gig at a Unicorn and you're projecting your status and opportunities onto everyone else.

Interestingly enough, the article you refer supports my point: the alternative to H1-B is jobs shipped overseas entirely. In fact it states that shipping jobs overseas is the end game.

The stories I hear about are very often the IT departments being outsourced. This will happen with or without H1-B. These jobs are being replaced because they are relatively low skill and easy to replace.
