Why can't the H1B visa holder also just be deported and drive for Uber in their home country full-time until the market recovers?

As a capitalist I'm all in favor of driving wages for workers to as close to 0 as possible. If Uber is $1 for me instead of $15 that's great. I don't think our unions or blue-collar workforce are in favor of that though.
