That's a moot argument, that Mexicans are more productive in the US doesn't necessarily benefit the individual Mexican. It _is_ a great boon to the employer, though, if he can keep H1Bs with equal skills but lower wages than equivalent US workers.

Not saying that this is how it is (I haven't studied the matter), but your argument is worthless.
