The h1bs salary requirements allowed large companies to import cheap workers and compete with American labor.
It's not a coincidence that the biggest numbers of applications went to some of the big Indian IT companies.
It's a good thing they will be changed so that the cost get equalized rather than allowing big companies to import cheap and skilled labour. If it's skilled it should be paid the same of course not less.
This has been known for a long time to be a problem but was mostly ignored until recently.
